Jazz Guitar Improvisation: How to begin soloing on II-V-I progression - chords, arpeggios and scales
PDF for the VIDEO (with tabs):
www.jazzguitar...
Ever wondered how to play through a II-V-I progression? Are you lacking the fretboard knowledge to do so? How about Jazz guitar improvisation?
Maybe all you need if a few guidelines as too what notes "are the good notes" ... ?!
In this video, I'll demonstrate :
-Three useful chord voicings
-The basic arpeggio
-The "right" scale to use
... for each chord included in a good old II-V-I.
Namely : Dm7, G7 and Cmaj7.
(key of C)
With this kind of material in hand (and ears!) you can basically play and improvise over most jazz standards in the repertoire. After you have this under your hands, you can go on and create your own solos in no time.

Wow! after battling for weeks, now I understood the very basic and the most important core of concept behind II-IV-I . Thanks for simplicity and educating approach.

Hi Marc, this video could not have been more timely for me. I am almost through the painless scale positions course, and looking for a new challenge. Last night, I just started watching the first few Improv 101 videos, to get a feel for the upcoming course, and here, in my email this morning is this video. Thank you for this! My head is just bursting with all this new information, and I'm gonna have to watch this one a few more times to get it all down.

@jazzguitar 6 лет назад

Wow! Thank you for that, Danielle! Remember it's not a race. :) I often find that it is most effective to work on one or two topics at a time for a good period. Otherwise, you don't really internalize things. :)

@audacide 6 лет назад

I'm glad that you reminded me that it's not a race. I think I'm a ways yet from finishing painless scale positions. The only way that I can make sense of assignment 15 is to write out tab for the remaining of the 60 positions. If I can see it in front of me, then I can make sense of it, follow along, and then memorize it. I also drew out chord charts for all of the chords in the course to work on. I can also begin to see now why you gave so many different fingerings and positions for the Dm7, G7, and Cmaj7. When I sit in on the office hours vids and the webinar, a lot of it goes right over my head, and I want to get a good understanding of it. That's kinda why I want to jump into the Improv 101 course as well. But maybe, I ought to "pull in the reins" a bit and get good at what I've already got to learn before I take on too much

@jazzguitar 6 лет назад

Fundamentals are crucial. You will soon realize how the stuff that seems complex isn't all that bad if you get a strong hold of the fundamentals. You're on the right track. One of my theory teachers once said that one of the most important things in learning music (or anything, really), is to learn how you learn things. If you're a visual learner and making charts helps, great. If you learn by hands-on experience, great. You get the point. Feel free to write with any questions or comments! :)

One thing Long Tall Dexter always did is hit, say, the top note of the chord, then the bottom note, then the middle, or vice versa. It's another way to play an arpeggio that isn't obvious. I'm using this in my improv since I figured out what he was doing.

Great foundation but learn a ton of phrases in 12 keys for 251 too and use knowledge of arpeggios and scales to understand why phrases work. Then you are much closer.

@johnjacquard863 4 года назад

Can you make a video that shows how to take these combined with enclosures grace notes , pentatonics superimposed, Triad pairs , all that and how to combine them to make convincing improvisation along with how you make things that sound appropriate for that location on the bar how to make language from all these thanks much.

@jazzguitar 4 года назад

John -- it's hard to address all of those things at once. However, you're in luck, because I've created extensive materials on pentatonics, and we had a live session last week on pentatonics! Here: facebook.com/jazzguitarlessons.net/videos/2314799902144827/

@aynrandy1 8 лет назад

What a Killer tone! You've improved a lot, although your lessons were always top notch. I'm just saying you play a lot better. You've made more progress than me. I've been saving for a Godin Kingpin II or a Montreal, but I lost a bunch of money, I;m still not going to settle for something cheaper. It's Godin or nothin. I might trade someone cash and 74 Rickenbacker 4000 small body bass on Craigslist. Now Playing God Awful Ibanez ajf-81 Red thing that looks nice. Never buy one of those artcore junkers, they look great but SUCK.

@opiekundps8806 7 лет назад

Hi :) I want to ask question which probably nobody never asked. Everyone wants to play solos,they focus on scales etc but, how to create accompaniment for different musical genres? How to compose & arrange different musical styles? How freely move from one style to another? Where to start? Do You recommend any books? PS. ...or maybe You could make several videos about it ?

@jazzguitar 7 лет назад

Well ... it's difficult to answer in one line in a RU-vid comment like that. :-) Could you be more specific?

@opiekundps8806 7 лет назад

More specific,more specific...I use google translator to talk with You :D but I will try :> Check on YT this two tracks of Naked City: "Speedfreaks" and "The prestidigitator" When I mentioned about freely move from one style to another I was thinking about something like this. in other words,I feel I was stuck The exercise of scales is not a challenge for me I did not discover anything new in this and because I play scales mechanically without thinking it does not happen learning in the process of doing this. So,I stop focusing on scales and mindless playing them Now I would like to learn composition and arrangement of selected musical genres. Let others play solos* :D to foundations (Accompaniment / Composition) which I will create :) * I do not want do this any longer,it's too stressful and boring ;)

@opiekundps8806 7 лет назад

Or otherwise,another example. When I was a kid I got keyboard :> My colleague also had but different. On both we had demos of melodies It was enough to choose a style and press one key or chord Then keyboard start played accompaniment in selected style for one selected chord or a single sound/pitch c# or g. I could listen to accompaniment played automatically for one chord in many different generes :) I had different accompaniments than my colleague even if we choose the same genere and the same chord. You know what I mean?

@jazzguitar 7 лет назад

I fear your question is just bit too complex to answer simply. If you want to study composition and arrangement, then seek the very best teacher and learn from that person. :-)

@nellNdaughter 7 лет назад

**Salut!! super video en passant ;) Je pose ma question en anglais pour que d'autre en bénéficie* : So for these interesting voicings that don't have the root note at the bass. How would you recommand memorising them. If i switch key, i'd like to apply these same voicing, so for example using the Dm7 (xx10-10-10-10) do you have to specificly focus on the 10ft of the e string, where the D note is, and remember that this particular shape has the root on the high treble string. Then, the other voicing (xx3535) you focus on the 2nd string where the D root note is... is that how you do it? ?!

@sergeutrobin563 7 лет назад

Hi, thank you very much for the lesson. Just what stuff do you use to plug your guitar in to get that brilliant jazz sound?

@thefacts5394 3 года назад

How is BFAD (4'42) a G7 chord? It is a Bm7 flat 5 'substitution'.

@jazzguitar 3 года назад

Hi, good question. It is indeed a Bm7b5 chord, but it can also be used as a rootless G7 chord. If you notice, all the notes are part of G7. B is the 3rd, F is the b7, A is the 9th (which in this case is substituting the root), and D is the 5th.

@lod340 8 лет назад

hi, i'm alex, i have a problem and i hope you can help me, it's about improvise on a jazz standard or any song, and don't get lost while doing it, i have been practicing a lot, my guitar teacher, show me how to practice with the metronome on 2 and 4 and i can do it, but when i'm improvising over any song i get so lost because i always start developing my solo, and there's no much problem but when i start thinking more about my solo i realize that i dont know where i am in the song, sometimes hearing the harmony helps but if i do it just me and my metronome after a few bars i don't know where i am, it's so hard thinking about the form of the song and also what i am going to do whit my solo whithout getting lost, sorry for my bad english, thanks

@jazzguitar 8 лет назад

Ah yes ... this is normal. I would recommend you work on precise exercises that *clearly outline the chord progression*. In this way, you can't get lost since you're always playing a melodic line that is *in relationship* to the chord of the moment.

The root and 5th are optional, 3 and 7 are the important tones (generally speaking) so playing it without a root is fine. Bass player will play the root.

@shaunmcinnis1960 6 лет назад

Could a person modify the caged forms to incorporate the sevenths or would that be inconvenient To play? Thanks in advance

@jazzguitar 6 лет назад

Honestly: depends on your hand structure. For example, some people are really good with out-of-position stretches, and other people prefer position-shifts to reach out-of-position notes. I'd encourage you to spend a lot of time on a variety of scale fingering methods, and then modify them or blend them to suit your specific needs. You'll find over time that you'll continue to make modifications based on whatever new material you're learning at the time, as well, so it's an ongoing process.

@jazzguitar 5 лет назад

It could be! Sometimes the intonation on a cheap classical guitar is out - meaning even if the open strings are in tune, the guitar still sounds out of tune. It could also be the action is too high on your guitar! In any case, here's a list of gear that I use in case you are looking for a recommendation: www.jazzguitarlessons.net/blog/marc-jazz-guitar-gear Hope that helps! All the best, Marc
