Thanks so much for putting these on RU-vid for free. Truly one of the most beautiful melodies.

Took about 3 days to have it all under my fingers. Took another 3 days to be able to put it together fluently. Now I'm working on improvisation. Thank you for the lesson 🙏

What an amazing gift it is to get this lesson and to be able to play my favorite music on guitar. Thanks Derek!

Wonderful video. Breaking this great groove into clear, manageable steps. I'm deep into Mali music (like Tinariwen, Ali Farka Toure, Oumar Sanore, and Boubakar Traore) and this lesson helps me play that style. Fun!! Thanks.

I've been working on this for a couple of days. So easy. And so hard. Love it.

How can I have missed this for so long? This is so good, well done, respect!

@mrcmountain6342 4 года назад

Thank you SO much! Mr Gripper is just so good at teaching.

I am so happy that you made this video. I saw Derek Gripper's TED talk two weeks ago and I am very much into Mali guitar (only at a beginner level) and his performence seemed to be impossible to reach. Now seeing him explaining it makes it very understandable and I guess with lotsa practice I ll be able to play it one day. thanks a lot :)

Very well broken down into playable (nearly, give me time) parts that start to make sense. Great teaching and a beautiful piece

Good lesson. Interesting that F# tuning duplicates the intervals found on the Renaissance Lute, and the Capo on the 3rd fret duplicates the same pitches. 😎

understanding with respect and playing with sensitivity. you have bridged cultures thank you for this lesson.

This is absolutely fantastic and you, Sir, are great. Thank you so so much for these wonderful tutorials!🙏🙏☀

@robinrobb3061 4 года назад

Thanks for the good work Derek. Once I managed this, I'm gonna go straight to your website purchasing tabs for the whole piece. I like the challenge, I'm just a beginner but it seems manageable and I get so much energy to keep one practicing from this!

Purchasing his courses is one of the best decisions a person can make in life. His website is full of treasure. It just needs some exploring. Beauty and joy awaits you.

Glorious!!! I'm a huge fan.

@jerryfletcher2384 4 года назад

Staying indoors practicing social distancing due to the Corovavirus outbreak. I was looking for a different genre of music to learn on guitar. I'm so glad I found your lessons. This is very interesting and doesn't seem too difficult to learn the basics for a late beginner like myself. Thank you for breaking it down so thoroughly. I'll be purchasing the next lesson to this. Cheers!

Merci (from Québec) ! Très intéressant.

@trinityesola4156 4 года назад

This is amazing.

@OIP_1 5 лет назад

fantastic! i’ll be putting in some practice time on this

@ICButts 3 года назад

I love this and I'm thankful for it, but I was totally lost the last couple minutes when you started improvising.

@jajabashengezi 2 года назад

Super D. I KNOW YOU aaa!! Appreciate for sharing the talent!

@TheRoironm 5 лет назад

Really good video... I practice for 2 weeks and I finally made it... Still need more speed.where can i find more lessons...???

@bogmalederryman5475 3 года назад

Great lesson Derek, thanks, weirdly though when I spent 2 or 3 weeks learning this and playing little else my brain completely forgot how to play ‘Suzanne’ by Leonard Cohen, which I’ve been happily playing for about 5 years, even managing it after a few drinks. Limited capacity obviously!

@olivier9125 4 года назад

Yes , j'adore..merci.

"And whence we got these kind of cycles going, we can start to make melodic improvisation". And then we had the drums, the kora and the n'goni while keeping the cycle going...

@alextw1488 3 года назад

Thank you so much for this and the beginner video, I now know what I shall be doing for the next few weeks!

@alextw1488 3 года назад

Just a couple of days later and I'm vibing and grooving along as i play this. The tune is wonderful, it needs no further words but I have to say the teaching is remarkable! Genuinely, I have never experienced learning like it...the way each hard-earned tiny piece gleaned from this and the beginner video suddenly fell into place and revealed the whole by the end was quite magical. I'm under the spell of this song and the teaching method. I'm investigating the best way to pay for more of this stuff. Many, many thanks for this lesson.

Part three please!!

@macaroon147 2 года назад

I can't believe this is free.

@mattjnagle 2 года назад

Thanks so much for this. I'm only a beginner, but loving it. Any chance somebody could jot down the scale to go with it? So I can play around and improvise between cycles with the capo on 3rd fret. :)

@StrayVet Год назад

Part 3?! Please!!!

@dylannolan7454 6 лет назад

@JeanChristopheLEROY 3 года назад

Did you find out good videos about this ?

@maxmalossini 6 лет назад

Great introduction, thank you. I purchased the staff notation music for Jarabi, and that music appears to be written for standard tuning? I'm a bit confused.

@DerekGripperGuitar 5 лет назад

The staff notation is for non guitarists and shows the pitch that results from 1. Playing with capo 2. The alternate tuning. I made it for harpists etccwho want a starting point. You need the Guitar score. I can send it to you if you purchased the wrong one just email me from my website.

@DerekGripperGuitar 5 лет назад

The staff notation is the resulting pitch if played on a piano or violin and is NOT for guitar players unless you can read at pitch with a capo on III and your 3rd string to f sharp and the 6th string to D (which is not as hard as it sounds). But really the tablature is much easier - this version was created for harpists and other musicians. Sorry for the late response!
