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.

That 13th at the end was just heart-stabbing ❤️‍🩹

I used to add all these tensions and extensions when I comp. That last minor chord has a hidden dominant chord in it which sometimes threw my jam buddies off. Now I keep these extra notes very briefly, or just keep them in my heart.🤣

That Cm/Maj (13) is just beautiful!!! Sounds like 3 chords in 1!!! Thanks Jens, she belongs to me now.🙏🏽

I like them all! I want to transform that CmMaj7(13) into a Maj6 chord immediately though. I must have heard this chord in a lot of classical music so that movement seems natural to me.

I love your content, Jens. I'm trying to learn music theory through jazz, and it's an arduous process for me. But your videos help me to apply these chords who's sounds I love but am incompetent to use in a musical context.

The second one is my favorite. The M7 between the Eb and D with the major sixth in between sounds niice

My hand hurt when playing Cm/Maj7 13! But loved the sound of it

[lastofthehorsemen]

Ive just gotten to the point where l can write nice progressions with secondary dominants and tritone subs which really catch my ear.Now to work on lead lines
