Never knew Django had done this! And Grapelli’s solo is fantastic!

Yea Pat, we know it 🙄

Hi I have this book and have the exercise book too. And as a completely beginner in jazz (besides I already ve known how to make scales, chord types, reading notes etc.) I can tell that imv this book is complete crap for newbie. I still have no clue how to improvise on counterpoint (but since the very beginning they demand this from you in exercise book) this book doesn't even give proper example what the counterpoint is and i had to spent an hour surfing through the internet to at least get the gist of what the heck that is. And this is just one example, but in this book majority of exercises are using the rules which were only broadly (like without details or examples) mentioned before. When the book's title says from beginner to advance i expect some explanation. I don't recommend the book. Sry for language I'm not native.

Are you from nz

No wasted time, just pure action and information. Your videos deserve way more attention.

Can whole tone scales and quartertone music also be mirrored? Can melodies using four species counterpoint also be mirrored to produce more complex and lush arrangements?

It was just what I was looking for!! Thank you!!

Please where can I find the records of the book for free

Keen to know where to learn about the use of tetra chords

Thank you for sharing this information. I am assuming that by "introduction" you mean "introduction for university or graduate level professional Music students.

Very educative!!

In that responsary we use the so-called "fa super la" everytime we come across b flat note next to a la note to avoid mutate for the sake of just one note.

Good video!

The first movement is "Grave" from Telemann keyboard fantasia No. 9 (TWV 33:9) The second movement is "Gayment" from Telemann keyboard fantasia No. 10, second "Douzaine" (TWV 33:22)

Thanks for the advice!!! So, Malmsteen creates a melodic pattern and repeats in diferent notes to create tension a interest ? I have always thinked that Malmsteen is a very capable composer, with a lot of resources and techniques, thanks for your analisis.

His book on The Jazz Standard is good.

🥰Always liked this solo since I listened the song qhen I was a teenager, I played and I thinked that all the ideas were of Heavy Metal origins, you show me other perspective, many thanks, I will tryto incorporate these ideas to my playing, I want to see all of your videos, many thanks.

00:30 atonality/12-tone is not a jazz theory though. it is a classical composer theory. berg is not jazz either. modes of limited transposition is not jazz theory either. yet there is no figured bass I bet, or probably even counterpoint. so basically...it sounds like this book is simply another textbook from the American education system's corrupt perspective on how to learn music. by the title 'jazz theory' they must actually mean 'post-1880 music' and just are using the term 'jazz' to sell more copies. explain why the best textbook is not still CPE Bach's textbook, 'the art of keyboard playing', especially considering it is zero or near zero cost to get a copy and actually contains the fundamentals of music.

Thanks for posting this. I am a composer and from time to time just need to refresh myself on these matters and find such videos quite helpful for both me and my students.

I’m in over my head here, but it works for my ears!! Fascinating seeing the theoretical side of things.

Often times, the largest treasure one can find, is in videos that seems nobody find before. This was so helpful, this is what they should teach. Thank you sooo much, i would like to contact you but cant find any info. Would love to chat about counterpoint from time to time, to solve some mystery,. thx!

That is a Great book, everyone that wants to know music, not just Jazz, but music in general, should get there hands one this one!! Thank you for show us this book, he also has three more, do a video one them, thanks again.😎👍

Incredible ! Thank you for this video!!

The best piece of music ever written, hands down. And if you haven't seen the Eroica movie please look it up: it's a wonderful fictional rendition of Beethoven's first rehearsal of the entire symphony.

enoyed this video. thank you for posting, and thanks for the book recommendation 'Serialism' by Arnold Whittall ___ seems like a good entry point for understanding. been looking for something like this. 🙏🏻

Thanks. If I listen to this, it sounds to me like C Ionion with C as the tonic, although it ends on a G chord (V chord, and G Moxolydian has the same notes as C Ionian. I don't understand this at all, sorry.

Thanks for this.

I don't get the A melody on the Abmaj7#11 in the next last measure of B. No matter how you voice it it sounds wrong. I think it's a different chord in the melody. Maybe A13b9?

do you have the music sheet of the solo GREAT ANALYSIS!!!

Does it cover music theory in its lessons? Since it's an important skill for analyzing a piece, I see it as a norm.

Thanks. It's rare to find this depth of harmonic analysis in TH-cam, I really needed it

Thanks for helping me😁 with my work.

Thank you so much for this: amazing work!

Please give some audi examples. I love this topic but I dont quite understand it... How do I start?

Very good video

Yes, as with many of your other videos, I did find it useful. Thank you very much.

This is so concisely and brilliantly laid out, cheers!

I'll echo another commenter. I think you really need to include audio to accompany your explanations. This is good information, but, and I mean this with all due kindness, substandard pedagogy because we as musicians benefit greatly from hearing immediate audio feedback of the concepts you're discussing.

These are some intriguing topics for discussion. However, the presentation could be enhanced by some audio examples. Otherwise it’s like talking about a painting without actually showing it. Keep up the good work, i’ve found your book reviews very helpful, esp the mention of Bert Ligon’s book

I think of a Weaver of Dreams as a Romanesca. Anyway, I've been thinking about doing a book like this since I found at about ROTOs... I guess now I don't need to haha

I have a question; wouldn't the vii°⁴² actually be +VI°⁴² ?

Thank you

Hi, I don’t quite understand the last part about missing thirds. Could you please explain why the chord after a minor “i” is not iv b?

0:58 the 7th in a 7th chord is a harmonic note

why don't you play this?

Thanks, I found it useful since you gave some key points about the book that help me in my choice. If it's already for someone with a good understanding of music theory, it's not a book for me. Actually I understand theory OK, but I don't have a trained ear. I found that learning the Rule of the Octave and learning thoroughbass are helping overcome that handicap, but I probably have Aural Aphantasia. Most musicians I talk with tell me I'll probably never be a musician, but that doesn't bother me. i just want to be able to sit and play at the piano. I quit watching all the videos of learning 100s of songs in an hour to sound AWESOME! I'm not awesome, so that's a waste of time for me. That's a reason that I don't watch a certain You Tuber with millions of viewers for his music theory lessons. If you don't understand every diminished half tone pirouette modal scale, you can't follow his lessons. So I don't anymore. I'll see what you have to say about music since it sounds like you talk basic sense.

Can you suggest a book that would help me pass the MEGA music exam vocal and intrumental k-12? I am a teacher with a background in, music, but it was not my major in college- just a hobby. I studied the practice book and ordered an online practice test and passed it, but then when I took thr real test it was all about band, jazz, and listening for different modes as well as knowing who wrote what music according to the sheet music. I didnt pass becasue i was a string, piano and recorder player who played in orchestras and quartets. I don't knkw anythjng about band and jazz. Now I don't have any materials to study. I teach k-5th grade.
