To find this video again, all I had to search was "dominant chad" and it came up as the first result. Well done, Dominant Chad.

I know he’s just casually playing some examples of different concepts and harmonic devices in the beginning, but that’s some of the baddest shit I’ve ever heard.

Now this is an intro that wants to make you instantly subscribe

Now I just need to be able to articulate this fast lol

This is the real deal. Excellent content!

im pretty sure charlie parker sent you from jazz heaven, this is the lexic

Thank you, this is a wonderful breakdown of which scales to use over dom 7 and why. Plus improv techniques, and approach patterns. There's enough in this 20 mins to keep me busy for a few years!

Thanks for your dedicated work, all of your videos have been very useful to me. They've helped me solidify my improvisation technique and how i used to see tonal music. I'm really grateful in this regard, keep up the good work and the good content !

Thanks for your vídeos, you help to understand Many things!!

Respect, Chad! You're a beast both as a player and jazz educator! 🎷

A great player generous with his knowledge is a rare thing.

You are the Best.

Muchas Gracias y Feliz Navidad !

Great man, thanks!!

Love your stuff, man! Real good tips here.

👍👍16:07 Great stuff, Chad! This is one of the best "hacks" for digging into altered dominant sounds: The minor Pentatonic built off the #9, and the 2 adjacent Dominant Pentatonics built off the #11 and the b13th. It really showcases the resolutions inherent within the altered chord itself.

Thank you Henry Cavil, (sorry, i could not resist XD ) i'm gonna spend hundreds of hours on all of your videos! watching this one for the third time! best stuff on youtube! =D

I like to think i know a good amount of music theory but this video was humbling lol. Imma watch it a few more times

So clear, when you explain the lines. Usefull

Have to tell you, this guy grooves.

Yes yes... if I ever get another saxophone again ... that's music.... I'd like to learn music

I’m trying to dig deeper into disciplined practice for turn arounds. I’m a slow learner but man, your videos are so inspirational! Thanks for posting this stuff. Honestly, I steal the philosophy of how you approach your studies and create my own. Lol!! I’m a musician. I steal other people’s ideas every day!! Lol. I should probably buy one of your studies out of respect. To be honest, I am a little intimidated by the complexity of your melodic lines. I am not sure that my skill and understanding could take on your depth which means if I had one of your studies, it might not be as useful as me making my own. I can build from where I am and hope to reach a point to where I could use your materials later. I probably will buy one just to support what you do. I really got my eye on that memorizing standards study that you guarantee works. I love the idea of getting the ability to memorize and respond to music in the way you describe in that study. It seems like probably the most practical thing for me to learn at this point. Man!! I’d love to be able to hear changes and know what they are in the heat of the moment and know what to play. That’d be amazing. Even though you said your students could get through it in a month, I think it might take me a year to get through that study thoroughly. I really would like to use it to make my own set of homemade backing tracks. That way I am working through the changes some as guitarist/comp style musician as well. I don’t have any jazz gigs on the horizon, so I am not in any hurry. It's all for the love of music and jazz. I mostly just teach beginners. It’s a humble life but a good one none the less!!

Heavy ... 👍🏽

🔥🔥🔥

Thanks Chad as a trombonist this work great for practicing approaches....

Straight out of the the rabbit hole. Great explenations to understand the concept behind 'stepping out'

He's not a chad... He's a *GIGA* *CHAD* !

Yeah man

I have to say that I've always treated #9 and (alt) the same way. Default normally dim whole tone. Man you paied yer duez bra.

Chad have you made videos for all the pdf books you have for sale? If so that would be awsome.

@Chad LB How do you practice voice leading while using all 7 notes of a given chord scale in a melodic way? I find I just fall back on the patterns and licks and their variations as they fit into the scale

What kind of pentatonic? I can see a Ab, Bb, C, Eb, Gb. Untill I know, I can use every note as a root of the V7 disminished arpeggio and use each new V7 chord as a V7 arpeggio to get altered sound.

Your vids are getting better and better. Thanks. I'm inhaling all of your shit and loving it. The way I always looked at it, your Lydian Dominant, Mix b6 and Altered scales are modes of ascending melodic minor scales. C Phrygian Dominant is a mode of an F harmonic minor scale (starting on the 4th dergree). I'm sure you know that. Just curious- Why don't you use that terminology? Kind of old school...Also, can you tell me what software you use to make your RU-vid vids? Really nice production and sound....keep em coming, Chad.

Dude. This is gonna change everything.

Hello Chad, I don't see the 60 Dominant Chord Phrases by itself on the website. Where can I find it? Thank you

Qual o nome e numeração da sua boquilha ??? Onde posso comprá-la ???? Som incrível !!!!¡!

Hey man, I just discovered your channel, I look forward to checking it out.

What mouthpiece and ligature are you using?

Hello man, I want to buy all your courses with discount I'll wait at private chat

You're a 'monster player', but I can't get that Kenny G image of playing on the side of the mouth out of my mind) :)

Why it look like he posing for Calvin Klein while playing lol good content man killed it agian

Salve, non parlo l'inglese ma mi attrezzerò con un traduttore, volevo complimentarmi per la sua bravura nel suonare, Le volevo chiedere dove posso comprare e la marca o modello dei bocchini che usa. Spero di non aver disturbato porgo cordiali saluti. Giuseppe

I've just been playing the recorder.. some people say I've been getting so good on it .. I'm better off trying to make it with the recorder ... of course it's disillusionment for all of us usually when we believe we can make it.. that's part of the challenge and acceptance.. It should all be in good fun.. I haven't been buying lottery tickets for a while I better get back to that also.

7:19 goals

what i really dig about this is how un-guitaristic some of it is. I'm having to stretch in more ways than one. it's a block-buster for sure. I gotta leave most of my familiar patterns at the door.

3:46 "C7 concert" (with both the 9th and 13th in the voicing)

Alright now

Hey so what’s does superimpose mean

0:19 😳

What's the mouthpiece / ligature combination? Looks like some alien biotech

0:36

Pdf guitar version! (It means TAB)

Imma drummer why am I here

Yes !!Great but why do you play so fast ??? My ears do not have the time to understand ... ;-)

Cool, but how often do you get to play over four straight measures of a dominant chord?

I love this sound but it's so unnatural to play these lines on guitar and awkward for the fingering Arghhh gonna take some getting used to

"shred" ???????

How does anyone think THAT fast !!!

your mouthpiece and ligature looks fake lmao (i know it's not but it's just interesting lol)

It looks kinda fake like he doesn't know how to play properly just me though
