My name is Jens Larsen, Danish Jazz Guitarist, and Educator. The videos on this channel will help you explore and enjoy Jazz. Some of it is how to play jazz guitar, but other videos are more on Music Theory like Jazz Chords or advice on how to practice and learn Jazz, on guitar or any other instrument.

The videos are mostly jazz guitar lessons, but also music theory, analysis of songs and videos on jazz guitars.

You are getting mind bendingly good at your loops.

Love this video. Very helpful tip, about the middle of the voicing.

Sounds Nice Jens ! This is a great method / approach to playing. Maybe you could also do a short video on how to fret Maj and min 3rds on single and adjacent string pairs ? - as these are building blocks for diads, triads, 7th chords and 7th Arps. This is something I've been working on for a while. I've found it a manageable way to learn and practice such materials. It helps me, but this may be too much material for a short video. Triads and 7th Chords and their Arps may be too big a 'chunk' for some people to grab at first - so I figure 'learning Maj & min 3rds' beforehand ? Maybe ?

What would you like to see Short videos on? 🙂

I want to increase my chord vocabulary but all these chords are freaking me out just to look at them😅

Easily the most boring counterpoint I've ever heard. I don't care how easy it is to play (I mean come on how much easier can it be?). It just sounds bad.

If your speaking were as clear as your playing...
