Your tone makes even the wrong notes sound good ❤
I love this PDF - honestly everyone should shed it
That opening bit sounded SO GOOD!
Man, I wish i could get all my students to practice singing exercises like this! Excellent advice! As a guitarist, I'll often play the drone while i sing the line.
This PDF changed my life
1:02 sounds like jazz to me
Excellent! Thank you, mate! I've played (tootled) tenor and alto by ear for over thirty years - incorrectly - never learned proper music theory, and now approaching retirement I really want to dive into the 'mathematics'. I'm effectively a brand new student to this (with undoubtedly lots of bad habits) and your explanations of the principles are brilliant and understandable. I bought an Evan Tate 'jazz pattern' series of exercises about fifteen years ago and stupidly never used it. I follow Bob Reynolds, Randy Hunter, Scott Paddock and others. So I know where all of the notes are on the instrument, but rattle of rudimentary, crappy solos. Maybe with a bit more time on my hands, I'll actually spend some time listening to people like yourself who actually know what they're doing! My daughter plays piano to grade 5 and knows more in four years than I've ever known! Haha! Thanks again - subscribed. Cheers, Simon - uk
Nice lesson. To analyze patterns is something that is important, for classical music as well. The example of singing at the end was excellent. I gotta say, your chromatic solo was killin!
That sound is BOSS!
Great tips Nathan does such a good job! Glad he’s on this channel !
Nathan, you have done another great video with some very useful information. One of my problems over the years has been I did not have a real mentor, so I have done the best I could with the limited knowledge I had. Had there been TH-cam, and great videos like this, I would be a whole different player now. BUT we didn’t even have the internet way back then, (way back in the 1900’s LOL) so I did the best I could. But now after decades, I am playing again and learning and practicing more than I ever did! Info like this is so useful. Love seeing you here on JLV and having fun working through your jazz standards course too! Thanks so much and keep this helpful content coming on how and what we could/should be practicing! 😊
Love your presentation style!
I truly love how explain its insigntful great work man
Thanks for the code I got this lesson since I've been looking for something like this. I say continue to share lessons you offer and how to use them, which I think is something many of us struggle with. Like "I got the book, but how do I take advantage of the information". Keep em coming. I bought the lesson, thanks.
Liked the focus on the ear training and even singing the exercise.
you made my day , thanks
Thank you for practicing with a metronome! So many teachers miss this fundamental concept.
1:55 is the best ! Lol
Well! I bought this book online a couple of Years ago. I guess it was a little too early for my path and I got overwhelmed pretty quickly on it. Now that You broke this one exercise down so educatively, I feel the need to get back to this book and learn. Thank You!
I agree with your comment! Much of this, although I've 'played' a long time is WAY over my head! It just takes a method that gives an individual understanding, I guess! Great point.
All Chads stuff does that to me. I have so many books. I know it's not another book that I need ( I'm always looking through) It's this deep dive and patience! Staying with something lung enough remains difficult. I get bored and frustrated at the same time before I master a thing. I wish someone would talk about this more.
Super .!
Um vídeo show !!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The smile at the camera after the aimlessness killed me! What's that nice sony shruti box thingy at the end that changes colour when you sing against the pedal?
Magnifico.💪💪💪💪💪💪
The 10 Warmup Excercises pdf has some overlap, and is very good.
great video, chand lb is great, what was the device you were singing with?
cool, kid... subscribed...
Way cool, thanks! (Also, do you realize you sound a bit like Owen Wilson at times? I mean that as a compliment! 😊)
Can you demostrate how you apply that enclosure for example on II V7 I ? I can't make music with it 😢
I have a question,
What would you recommend being familiar with before approaching these chromatic exercises? I know being fluent in all 12 scales is key but what else should I work on?
Thank you so much!!
If the beginning tells us anything, it's that you CAN just aimlessly play a chromatic scale as long as the articulation is right and there's direction in the line. 🤣
Haha, I agree, it sounded better than he said it would!
the tune is Celerity not Celebrity
it means speed
Wiskunde
This is cool but I feel like the reason I shy away from exercises like this is because I dont know how to input in my solos.
Sandwich method: start from an original phrase, play enclosure, finalise with a beautiful diatonic phrase. That's just one way. Another one is to start from the enclosures and play a phrase from the target note after
that's the thing man. just keep doing them, and they'll get more natural to you, to the point where you'll start to use them in your solos without thinking about it
sounds great but trying to actually purchase isn’t possible? Trying to purchase ends up in an endless loop. What’s the secret?
