Показать описание
If you're an experienced guitarist in your 50s, you don't want to feel like you're starting over with jazz. Well, you don't have to. By using your ear and building on the scales and chords you already know, you can start playing jazz now.

In this video, you'll learn which tunes to play, how to learn them and the key concepts that make it sound like jazz. And you’ll develop your ear and pick up the skills you need for each song along the way. This method helps you focus on the music you love, rather than spending hours on theory and technique.

Exactly! Learning tunes gives me the tones from the melody that call out Key and Scale, and it makes me work. It also makes me stone cold aware what brilliant composers made these Standards.

Transcribing small phrases in solos is a great exercise for ear training and learning the language

Thanks -brings a lot of things together. What was the name of the 4th rhythm pattern at 7.40 ? -I'm sure it's not 'Woodster'. Any enlightenment?

I have a question regarding the small chords/shapes you’re mentioning at 07.07: what does P4, TT and P5 mean? Thank you dr. Hess! 🎸🙏
