Hi Sandra, thanks so much for getting back to me. I love your arrangements. They flow so well, and love the way you explain them. I have been playing for quite a while so it really makes sense. Glad that My Foolish Heart is on your list. It is so beautiful, especially the way Al Jarou sings it. Simply incredible, and also the way he sings The Nearness of You. Hope you give him a listen. I am located in Northern California, just across the Bay from San Francisco. I put The Nearness of You into youtube and there you were. Lucky for me. Almost got the whole tune down now thanks to you. At first I just wrote down all the chords that you gave in your video. Then I thought it would be so much easier just to join your workshops. Again glad I did. What a gold mine of musical treasure for the guitar. Thanks .. Tony
I had surgery on my left wrist two days ago, I'm praying it works. If it does I can't wait to learn this classic. Thank you Sandra for this beauty. Love you and your teachings. Your playing is beautiful.
Thanks so much for this beautiful version of this great song, I've been waiting for this! Wow, so many chords, this lesson will keep me busy for quite a while! Thanks again!
Glad you like them and I can be of help 😊. Check out my Chord Melody Starter Pack (I pinned the link as the first comment here). It hadms 5 beginner friendly song tabs.
You can learn so much from this song, if you dig into it and try to understand the movements and connection with these chords. There's a lot going on here. Thanks again Sandra!
I bought the tab for this (and I have the Chord Melody pack)....such great value....(no I am not paid to say that...just a home fingerstyle/solo jazz player who loves music). Thanks Sandra..love your material!! Peace to you!
@@GuitarversumSandraSherman Thanks Sandra...my only problem is staying focussed one or a few songs to practice them, rather than looking through all your material! All the best to you!
After finishing girl from Ipanema i'm doing this one next. I love my Ella Fitzgerald CD collection and this is a great avenue to actually participate in the music. Thanks much!
lovely tune chord melody on guitar sounds so good. well worth the effort to learn. as usual your arrangement and instruction make it so much easier and understandable. thx Sandra....onwards
Grrrrreeeeeetings Sandra , I love all your teachings, this is what i've been looking for, i wish i cand find some teaching for the song My Foolish Heart, thank you, regards!
I've learnt so much from you Sandra. This arrangement is so beautiful. Beautiful chords giving great expression of an all time great composition. Thank you so much.
Ok I made it through the first A part. I like it. I'm going to try cleaning up my playing before moving to the second A part. I think these things often need a woman's touch. Thank you!
🎵Sandra this is absolutely beautiful! One of your very best videos. Anyone wishing to learn this tune could do no better than following your very clear instruction and guidance in this exceptional posting. Excellent! 👍🎵
@@GuitarversumSandraSherman Autumn Leaves, All of Me and Georgia on My Mind part of my practice routine. A lot slower to learn new things these days with a bit of arthritis but couldn't have gotten this far without you!
LOVELY INTERPRETATION. Beautifully instructed, too You have the whole package. Johnny Smith himself would have loved to follow your video lesson in chord structure. I love getting into a Barney Kessel frame of mind to create that warm Wes Montgomery world of exploring ballads. You have the sensitivity of an angel combined with your urgency to share and pass on your craft and musicianship. Thank you for your generosity. l admire you compassionately..
Thank you Sandra for the great video. As always you explain everything with great clarity. Àlso you cover both the theoretical and technical info. simultaneously and in great detail, seemingly effortlessly which is something very few other teachers manage to do. The gem for me in this video is the (b5 substitution) of a maj7 chord for a minor one. I was familiar with the b5 dominant substitution but not this one. Having this possibilty highlighted provides the oppertunity to play much more interesting chord progressions in an arrangement. So thank you very much for the enlightenment. Long may you continue your great work.
I am revisiting this song and I’m just amazed at the way you arranged it, with so many beautiful chord substitutions. Phrase number four is unbelievable and shows that you are a genius. You are the best of the best Sandra.
Very beautiful arrangement of the Nearness Of You. Could you please also give us an arrangement of, "My Foolish Heart" by Victor Young. Much appreciated. Thanks for the videos..
Don't know if makes sense to you, because on how I happen to be wired, when I play guitar, paint, or anything similar, lose my ability to speak, can't communicate, wired to focus on one or the other. Not adept at conversing at both, very cool to actually name a chord, recognize it, and express it normally, with others, After listening to your videos, after 50 years, give or take, keep up what you do, very cool.
Could you do a lesson of sophisticated lady by duke Ellington it would be very much appreciated as a beginner jazz guitarist I love the genre and would like to dive deeper into it with songs I love :)))
Not yet, but I'll look into these and see if they're suitable for chord melody and, if I can come up with a playable arrangement. Nightingale had been requested a couple of times already. So there may be a chance. It always takes time though. I shoot around 4-8 weeks in advance.
@@GuitarversumSandraSherman LOL, I look forward to them and have joined (finally), you have my full support for all your generous work...! Thank You...!
This is traditional jazz actually. But I agree, it sounds very smooth 😊. You can get the Tabs from the link in the info box, below the video. There's a little arrow or "more info". Click it to unfold the description box and see the link.
Hi all - my tab at section C don't appear to match!! I'm sure it is me but on page section c starts with Fmaj7 but Sandra is on a A half dim. Can anyone explain where I'm messing up?
@@GuitarversumSandraSherman Thanks Sandra now I see it! I went back to the A section for the 6 bars and got lost. Now I see the C starts with the 6 bars. Great tabs by the way. :)
