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.

My Gear:

Weird is more appropriate than beautiful I would say. Interesting atmosphere those chords create..

[dountoothers]

All of them played together sound like a beautiful progression

[goobertsnoobert]

I love that second last one - the Am7(11, 13)

[apisdude]

they all sound great. thanks for this Jens

[drewh.]

This is really helpful for me. Could you do this kind of video with maj7 and dominant chords as well? It's good to be able to vary up your sound even if you're just player bread and butter type stuff

[robbertr]

Am7(9, 13) does it for me. Creates beautiful suspense that sounds like you can resolve it many different ways. Thanks for sharing Jens!

[KenTeel]

They all sound great. It's just a matter of context (how they are used) that would make one more appropriate for comping. They are beautiful, commonly used jazz, chords. They are a nice break from the basic chords that are commonly found in rock, blues, country. Of course this can be an aquierd taste. Sometimes you just have to have played enough plain vanilla chords, to get tired of them and want something with more coloring.

[Hicky]

So useful. Next please on maj7, dominant and m7b5.

A minor 7th (11). By a mile. Lovely. Beautiful

[bohnulus]

I love that ( m11 ) I ve been leaning on that as a sexy ii(11) in a ii-V7-vi

[mackermaldrill]

They all sound great. There are no boring chords. It's in the way that you use it.

[Dougwarren]

I don't think I can choose, I can't decide! Great stuff as always. ☮️🎸

[warnerbroken]

Am7 (11, 13) gives a bittersweet, full sound which is just beautiful.

[SkarphedinnWalz]

I really liked the fifth one, the Am (9), and the 9th one the Am7 (11, 13) had a great sound also. Some sounded lovely in series also, great video

[JRam]

Im a fan of the A minor 7 with the added 11 its just a vibe

[funkasiandude]

(9), (11) & (9) is my favourite 🔥💯

[reginaldparker]

Am7, Am7(9), Am7(11), Am7(13), Am7(11), Am7(9, 13), Am7(11, 13)

[DebbieBarrette]

I like them all. I think the one I’d like best would depend on context. Thanks for some nice ideas 😊

[devinfrench]

Definitely cant go wrong with

Minor 711 and minor 9

[garithhunt]

i like:
the 5th and 8th ones - Am7(9)
and the 9th one - Am7 (9, 13)
they have that Holdsworth-esque feel, sparse, with a hint of dissonance, and tons of emotion
