TILF Barry Harris Episode 26 Chords in Major Scale Idea

This is the Twenty Sixth in several episodes discussing the things i've learned from Barry Harris I started studying with Barry in 1993 and still learn from his teaching every day. I hope I can use this channel to help other musicians who are interested in Jazz but find it a little too cerebral. I think Barry's method, while being cerebral, is also direct and most important beautiful. Please Subscribe and feel free to comment below on how I can improve this channel I'm available for skype lessons if you prefer.

I'm so glad there's a guitarist out there reframing Barry Harris's concepts. I'm sold, subscribed

Wow! This is so helpful. This is a great way to "fatten up" a 2 5 1 progression. It has internal logic, instead of just reaching for my favorite voicings. I have been studying Barry Harris for years but your presentation is unlocking his system beyond the usual introductory presentation of harmonizing the 6th diminished scales. Making these videos is a lot of work so please know that they are very much appreciated!

What a great lesson! Pairing this sound with Barry's scales of chords makes so many beautiful sounding movements! Thanks, Chris!

[alexrousedds]

This is great, Chris! I hear a lot of sounds in there that I have been searching to find for a long time. This will be very helpful.

I'm a guitarist and my piano teacher showed me some of these ideas, which are incredible. I made a PDF of the chord shapes you used here, in case folks might find it helpful. It's nice to have a cool application for the drop 2s while students are learning them. Thanks so much. (I'll post the link here only with your permission.)

I am starting with Barry book few weeks ago. You are a a great help in my learning.

[usmc]

that sounded really pretty man... thank you for the ideas:)

[AntarblueGarneau]

Lovely! I'll learn it! Bu this is mebbe for solo guitar because you wouldn't wanna play these voicings with a standard jazz rhythm section: piano, bass, drums or even with just bass and drums or just bass, unless of course you omit the bass note. You'd have to play what Barry calls "small chords"

[MaxItani]

Great stuff Chris!
can you share some more applications of the 6-2-4-7 concept? Can it translate to any other scale degree? Like if you start on the 5, or on the 3 lets say

[segas]

Your guitar amp sound great, so clean and transparent and also expensive, but that’s the price to pay to please the ears

[jc-wxsm]

thank you! when i’m practicing these in various keys, should I practice switching string sets at the same point in the scale every time, or should I not worry too much about fingering and playing it the same way every time? tricky because so many ways to play the same thing!
