Looks much more practical and pragmatic than the more academic approach. It would be great if you could do a tutorial on your approach to scales and arpeggios on the fiddle!
Heey Christiaan, Sinds een tijdje ben ik weer wat serieuzer bezig met gitaar studie. Maar wel de Gypsy Jazz. Zo ben ik ook op jouw RU-vid channel uitgekomen. Ik heb echt heel veel aan de videos die je maakt. Deze video ook weer. Goede, praktische tips. Ga er nu mee bezig! Hartelijk bedankt. Another great video form Chrstiaan! Keep going, keep inspiring.
HI Im your loyal fans and I have a very big problem to ask .How to avoid boring? when Im just randomly play some stuff follow my finger ,which I call it improvise... , monotonous, lack on paterns ,few modes，all over and over again. I just tired of that , both finger and ear ,especially my left hand's finger ,its a little bit over using .by the way how to avoid over using left hand ? muscle weak. ha ,and thank you for every thing you post.
Interesting concept. Would be great to know what position Stochelo would use on say a Cmajor. I assume the third (E) would be too high or too low on the neck to play his favourite lines. Maybe he has a second favourite .... the 6th?
Wonderful lesson, than, you. At 9:00 you say that you are playing an F maj arpeggio going up - if you are in G, what is the theory behind playing a whole step below your key? Thanks in advance!
3:45 can you explain to me your understanding of that? I don't understand how to play a scale in the middle of the fret board then highlight that scale in a position that is like 5 frets below?
@@sprenzy7936 Just get very comfortable with one position and then use that as your home turf. You can go on adventures to other towns, but when you want to play phrases and relax, just return to your home turf.
You make a lot of good points in these videos, however without figures to demonstrate stuff, and the lack of editing, i feel it lacks conciseness and becomes somewhat ramble prone. It's not incredibly clear what you're telling me. Gets vaguer and vaguer. Thanks. :)
He’s a creative guy not a classroom teacher , he’s sharing his ideas with us for free. I think he teaches fine the way he does, he lets his great personality to shine through and doesn’t teach in a dry serious way like other guys who maybe are more concise and clear in their teachings Best advice is to just copy the lines and scales he’s playing by ear, and then jam them over a static chord groove
My intention was to give contructive criticism which would hopefully help him to convey his teaching better, which I assume he wants, as he's going out of his way to make these videos. I am grateful, so why not try to help back? I like his style, but more conciseness and clarity would probably help him achieve success. It's completely up to him whether he cares about that. I doubt he dwells on the opinion of a guy on the internet. :)
BloopShow I hear what your saying but maybe there’s a market for this style of teaching . In fact there must be as this guy is already a very successful educator as well as performer.
I appreciate both your comments fellas! I'll try and do better but at the same time - like Jerry says - every live workshop I do around the globe is always completely full, precisely because of the way I teach in my YT vids!
Why play scales? Why not do what all the master players of jazz do--- follow the diatonic cycle and all the chord extensions, etc? It's a lot more interesting and sounds much better.
