This is the REAL stuff right here. No faking! This man is the single-handed writer of a lot of the standards, so when he plays them, it is REAL! Pat is a JAZZ-HERO and LEGEND!
hear hear. 🎸
@@user-if6qr1nf5t Timmy? I have kids by 3 different freckled women little tony.🤣
@@user-if6qr1nf5t ah, perhaps you are TR using a pseudonym?
Um yeah…Pat was awesome, but he did not write any “standards.”
Ive been playing guitar(music) for over 35 years. I just learned more in 15 minutes with Pat Martino than from all my previous teachings. wow! What a great musician! RIP Pat
Pat's explanation of the symmetries in music are similar in ways to Barry Harris's concepts on harmony. Anyone interested ought to see what Barry put forward also
First of all, it's genius. Second of all, don't ask Pat Martino for directions to the store.
It's the same... now its there. My dyslexia is in agony.
😆😆😆
Absolutely love pats playing but his approach conceptually is bloody convoluted to my mind and often it takes a while to go oh he's doing this why is he calling it that? As you'd know we can use different starting points and achieve the same effect.
Oh my I've done it myself. Don't ask me for directions either🤣 He really is one of the the real greats 👍
@@barryblack5562 : Pat Martino does an incredibly great job of explaining his genius-level approach.
I understand the complaint but I don’t agree that Pat obfuscates matters.
To see the Augmented triad and the Diminished 7th chord (1-b3-b5-bb7) as “symmetrical parental forms” on the guitar fretboard is genius!
RIP Pat Martino 1944-2021 (Nov. 1st passing.
That is firkin' hilarious! And so true!
Sad day. We all have a lot to thank this man.
He was a Savant and the musical world lost a great modern Jax guitar player and wonderful human being.
RIP Pat Martino
The way he slows down and harmonizes with the piano, such brilliance.
We lost a Savant.
Pat was a MASTER and the way he explains music could benefit us all.
A very sad loss…
RIP Pat Martino, you sir, will be sorely missed.
Yeah may he rest in peace.... Been in love with this guy's music for years now
I adore this man, he talks about sacred geometry, well I say he's sacred to jazz guitar and the history of jazz himself! One of the most articulate and intelligent men I've ever come across. I know Dave greatly enjoyed speaking and playing with Martino, a real honour.
You're damn straight haha!
happy birthday pat! membering guitar legend Pat Martino on his birthday. August 25, 1944 - November 1, 2021,...miss you
Pat's lines are amazing. He has the timing and feel of the great bebop masters.
He IS a masterpiece
I grasp almost nothing he says, because I have no background in music theory, yet it was a great privilege to hear him speak. The playing speaks for itself. What a great talent this man is.
once in a lifetime)
All I can say is Pat Martino was amazing
This has just changed my life.
I hope in a good way haha)
I especially enjoyed this too, and I've adored Pat since forever. Is it that Pat's lines really clicked for you? That's exciting. It's really a pretty short list, of guitar players with true, sing-through-the-horn melody lines -- even shorter when we take big fat tone into account. Getting a pick to sound like Wes's thumb... ish. It sure doesn't happen by itself.
@@thelonious-dx9vi Pat is the greatest musician I ever played with.
Tell you what Dave, you're no slouch yourself. I just watched your solo Yesterdays a la Lennie. It is brilliant and lovely. I do love that tune. Anyway, count me as a fan and subscriber for sure. Stay safe.
@@thelonious-dx9vi nice to meet you Mr Monk, blessings and keep swingin from NYC)
🤯 how am I just finding this for the first time after so many years?! 🤯 just brilliant
Pat was a true genius of invention on guitar you have self trained, theory taught, inventive genius on guitar. Pat was the latter, leaving home at a young age, dropped out of high school, seeking a career in jazz and education, found it all along the way. Didn't have a traditional music education, followed his love for music. I don't believe that path is possible today as things have been forced to change in our society. Pat was a gift to the guitar world as was Wes and so many other brilliant players. To often today we see the children of wealthy families graduating from music programs that are paid for full sail degrees but so many lack soul and are comicly mechanical and lack substance. Pat was a true genius that comes along rarely as did Jaco, Wes and so many black Hammond B3 organists. McDuff, Holmes, McGriff, Rhyne, Smith, Earland and other great black key players and of course Art Tatum, one of the true piano geniuses in America. Drummers, horn players, too many to list. Most died with little money and society tends to forget you when you check out of here. Pat was unique. I met Tal Farlow, Barney Kessel, Jack Wilkins, Joe DiOrio, Les Paul, Larry Carlton, Joe Pass and others. They all had a gift, were very real people, most didn't have attitudes, aloof mindsets or other mental personality woes but we're just guys who loved music and interaction with others to create it, allowing their voice and others to be heard. Today, when players are trying to cram 1,000 notes in a measure, listen to Luis Armstrong who could say more with three notes than most players with ten. He played from the heart, so lacking in so many players and artificial celebs today. Thank you Pat for decades of instruction on the true potential of guitar!
Well said....
Pat Martino must have been a theoretical physicist in another life. Incredible Musician! RIP P.M.
My goodness, Pat sounds magnificent in this format, which is rare for him. Cheers for posting, and long live the king.
thanks for writing)
I personally don't get much, musically speaking, out of the concepts he's dealing with here, but a lot of his explanations are really beautiful! You can tell he has a very deep spiritual and emotional connection to his music. Such a unique and creative mind.
I can diggit)
God please, let that man live much much much much much longer
yes!
The result is surprisingly very beautiful, the idea behind it is so smart. I'll sleep smarter tonight. Thank you Pat. To the shed... ❤
Masters of their craft. Beautiful to see and hear such virtuosity.
Real lovely to listen to a master on this level of understanding. Inspiration .
I feel like my mind is being blown in slow motion. What an awesome guy
So glad he was here, so sad that he is gone. The light bulb moments I get from his explanations are more like lightening bolt moments. Incredible insight. Thanks for posting this.
Great insight. I need to watch this a few times.
This man is a revelation! Superb Sir! Brain unlocked you're the key! What a deep thinker.
Man what a genius! Rediscovering Pat after a long time
I play a little guitar, I mean a little bit of guitar. I'm not interested in being able to play this kind of stuff, it's way beyond me, but I love listening to Pat Martino and watching his classes. He's like some kind of wise old sage. His life story is absolutely fascinating also. This is a side of Jazz I never thought I'd get into, but through Pat I'm getting close. Thanks for the upload.
I think it’s safe to say that We’re all better people for having had Pat in Our lives in one form or another.
Thanks for the Memories, Pat.
You’ll never be forgotten, my friend…
Wow! This is awesome- as the tuning on guitar is in effect 6 rows of Piano keys, Guitar can be a complex instrument to understand harmonically...Pat's years with the instrument really shine through here and this lesson allows a guitarist to develop his understanding of notes and harmony utilising the shapes we are all comfortable with....what a legend- Thanks Pat!
It's more like playing the piano with six fingers that are conveniently spaced at fourths from one another.
Love his thinking here. Must investigate more. Thank you, gentlemen.
Wow. Awesome breakdown of concept there. I feel that more guitar teachers should take his approach for beginners, showing them all the patterns and symmetry on the guitar. Thanks for the video!
Superb!!!. Thanks for sharing this. Cheers.
Excellent, thank you!
Great time pat!!! ❤🎉love his style
Great lesson thank you Pat.
Pat is my favourite living Jazz Guitarist today ... absolute master.
no question)
Rest in peace, Pat Martino!!
This guy loved and understood the guitar to level nobody has before
11:17 the stuff about turning augmented chords into major and minor chords by changing only one note is pretty cool. Thanks for the video!
Everything in music can be reduced to numbers and formulas to manipulate those numbers into whatever sound you want. Master those and the music is yours for the taking, whenever you want it.
Mr Martino is such a gracious individual. I've met him on several occasions at his shows and always such a gentleman and a very fine guitarist!
what a beautiful mind! Thank you Pat!
Damn! He sounds so much like Wes Montgomery here - from his single-line to his octave playing, even the tone! It's obvious (and well known) that Wes was a huge influence on Pat, as he was on just about every jazz guitar player that followed him. Really appreciate your channel. Most people don't realize that (serious) music is as much an intellectual endeavor as it is artistic. Your studies bring this out brilliantly and enjoyably.
blessings and keep swingin from NYC)
50% intelectual
50% artistic
There was one interval has played with octaves toward the beginning that was very much a "Wes" note. The rest was all Pat Martino, but yes, i feel you!!
Play just one octave and everyone's mind goes ah wes. Pat can easily play all wes material but I very much doubt wes could play Martino if he were here.
I've seen him deriving chords from diminished chords, and now he's doing it to augmented chords. This man is just full of revelations.
Pat Martino sees 2 chords as “Symmetrical Parental Forms”.
1) Play C+ by fretting 554 on GBE.
Move any note DOWN one fret and you’ll parent 3 major triads.
Raise any note UP one fret and you’ll parent 3 relative minor triads.
- So that’s 6 other triads from each Augmented parent.
2) Play a Diminished 7th chord by fretting 4545 on DGBE.
Move any note DOWN one fret and parent 4 Dominant 7th chords.
Move any note UP one fret and parent 4 Half-Diminished 7th chords (mi7b5).
- So that’s 8 other 7th chords from each Diminished 7th chord.
- Martino was a genius.
I’ll be spending the rest of my days on his observations.
So fantastic!!!
Solo un genio puede volver con la magia intacta, gracias Pat!!
Great video Thx !!! ... great explanations about patterns & progressions ! that's the way it should be taught in guitar & jazz schools !!
Amazing. Just amazing 😻
what a bloody genius..

Damn, Dave Frank is killin. Pat had many styles that were timeless. I never knew him when he was young, but when I close my eyes I see and hear a young player with centuries of wisdom.
This is so good! Respect… He learned this Mastery, Twice! Learn his story .. R.I.P.
Such a great video, Dave lets his guest speak and play to his hearts content. Thanks for this.
it was a great day
Just.. amazing!
This gave me a new appreciation of Pat, the guitar, his music, music in general and the oneness of all things - (don’t quite know how to put it but....) thank you!
You are welcome)
One of the key takeaways from this video is how the piano player stays out of the way of the soloist.Pat Marino. If the piano player is the lead, then the guitarist needs to comp to stay out of the way of the lead. This is what I’m working on now. His discussion is amazing. And, I have guitar envy.
Pat is my favourite modern Jazz Guiatrist ... just wonderful stuff.
I wouldn’t call a man of his wrinkle to smooth ratio “modern”
Pat Martino...awesome right hand.
Love this!
Just a couple of ol cats having a great time! I love it! Sounds amazing!
Nice! I like Pat's comping as much as his solos.
Session jams
I must make a note to spend a bit of time studying this.
Eternal gratitude for a genius, the only one on the planet who overcame a cereral aneurysm and became one of the greatest collaborators for all guitarists and musicians on the planet an angel of God ,,, eternal gratitude
I admire this guy a Lot!
Great interpretation!
What a legend incredible every note had soul and purpose
you got that right)
One of MY mentors, Carl Lockett in the Bay Area,(First call Guitarist for Many Greats,) Loved Pat martino!! RIP PAT!!
Deep insight from a remarkable mind.
oh yeah
Jesus … So insightful yet so simple and evident.
Beautiful.
He just blew my mind and I've been playing for over 20 years.
I can diggit
No wonder you've been playing like shit for 20 years.
@@Minotauro_di_Chieti How do you know ? You have never heard him play
Legend
Pats parental forms are a great way to find new chord structures
An absolute genius 🙏🏻
Love it !!!!!!!!
Thank you pat
That lovely example at 14:00 is is probably the most important thing any guitarist can learn.
amazing what a concept can lead to
The split screen is excellent!
mind blown. ordering his book...now.
great....both
Holy smokes. This is one of the best lessons you’ll ever receive, if you can follow along. 🔥👍👏
A great guitarist, one of the best
excellent use of clipping i dig the crunch
pat martini is truly a guitar genius
Yeah ! Pat Martini, shaken not stirred 😙
Awesome ❤️
Thanks for posting this. 🤍

Dave, thanks for your wisdom in bringing the magic of this man to your stage. He is so profoundly inspiring. He is intuitively referencing advanced mathematics like set theory and abstract algebra perhaps without knowing it, yet when he plays it has the beauty of heaven. The juxtaposition of left brain and right brain concepts to create something even higher is like a spiritual journey that he is sharing with us. I have never seen anything like it.
I agree, I thought I had played with some great musicians until I played with Pat!
@@DaveFrank Bad form to insult every previous musician you’ve ever played with just in order to pay one musician a compliment! Disappointed in that comment Dave
@@leobird8756 Hi Leo, thanks for writing. Just a figure of speech amigo, was not an insult to anyone, just an over the top way to express what I felt after playing with Pat.)
@@DaveFrank Makes perfect sense, you seem like a great guy. As someone who has lived with chronic “foot - in - mouth” disorder for years, it’s possible I’m just hyper sensitized to phrasing that might get ME in trouble if I said it!
wow. i don't understand it but I love it!
Here’s Martino’s “Symmetrical Parental Forms”.
1) Fret your GBD strings at frets 554. That’s notes C-E-G# and it’s 3 different Augmented triads, named for any one of those 3 notes. It’s 1-3-#5.
2) LOWER any one of those notes, you get 3 different MAJOR triads (1-3-5).
3) RAISE any one of those 3 notes, you get 3 different MINOR triads (1-b3-5).
So that easy-to-grab Augmented Symmetrical Parental Form has 6 “children”, 3 Major triads and 3 Minor triads.
- Now the other “parent”, the 4-note Diminished 7th chord (1-b3-b5-bb7). Fret 4-5-4-5 on the DGBE strings. That is 4 different Diminished 7th chords named for notes: F#-C-Eb-A.
1) LOWER any one note and you get a Dominant 7th chord (1-3-5-b7).
2) RAISE any one note and you get a Half-Diminished 7th chord (aka) a Minor 7b5 chord.
So that other easy-to-grab chord form, 4 notes this time, yields 8 other chords: 4 Dominant 7th chords and 4 Minor 7b5 chords.
That is Martino’s lesson.
2 chords are “automatic” on the guitar, and you use them to show you other chords. That’s it.
the "thing" Pat managed to do was to create a way of unlocking the guitar's fret board to all styles of music ( particularly Jazz ). Advanced applications of music theory applied directly and uniquely to guitar. But! I would recommend you have a solid music (jazz) theory understanding before trying to apply his techniques to guitar. It's that involved and advanced. You must have a solid understanding of every single note on the fret board.
beautiful
beautiful master
for sure)
Beautiful Genius. Vertical & Horizontal triads. Alphabet scales and all. RIP Pat.
Mind blown.
I learned from Frank Gerard, who learned from the same guy who taught Pat Martino (Dennis Sandole). Great video I was able to follow right along with Pat but the alphabet thing to me is new and I can hardly wait to play around with the concept!
Fabulous............ron castro
true master. Ty
I’ve noticed that Pat’s pinky flails like crazy, yet it never interferes with his astonishing technique. There’s so much nonsense about this kind of thing on TH-cam. A master.
whoa, i had thought about diminshed going to other dom chords, but shifting individual notes of augmented is a different concept for me! thanks
Listen kids. THIS is HOW you make MUSIC!!!!
Gid Bless you Pat. YOu got me out of Limbo
Yes!!
