*I love this type of jazz music. Not a lot of jazz musicians play Traditional Jazz anymore.*
@Thomas Marcotte Blues at its very basic core is a type of song structure based around the I, IV, and V chords. Even though there is a genre of music called “Blues” that follows these basic guidelines, there are also other styles of music that incorporate the blues chord progression into their repertoire (jazz, rock, etc.), and are not considered to have switched genres of music when doing so. Everyone from Charlie Parker to The Beatles have played songs that follow the blues chord progression, but neither of them are considered to be “blues” musicians, because they do not exhibit the characteristics of people such as Muddy Waters or B.B. King.
@@yakagogo5931 Elegant explanation. Thank you for this
Check out Michael Steinmann's "Swingyoucats" channel for more early style jazz.
It simply never gets old. Thank you New Orleans :-)
Wow I never knew you could do that shaking technique on the clarinet. Always learning something from these videos
Banjo in jazz... i like it.
Oh, this is just lovely!
I want to learn to play the banjo...
This is excellent. Thank you for posting.
Ahhh I've been waiting for more jazz tenor banjo videos from you guys! Awesome!
I LOVE these videos!
Real Trad played authentically and a great lesson by two of the best too.
New Orleans jazz is great shape with legends like Don Vappie, Kermit Ruffins, Gerald French, and Shannon Powell playing regularly and playing great down there.
Love this presentation!
Fantastic stuff
Beautiful! Thank you for the breakdown too. So inspiring.
I love this song
Yes daddy.
Idk why but I find it a bit hard to hear the difference (compared to a piano for example) in chord strumming with the banjo. I find single notes to have a much "clearer" sound than whole chords
King oliver's canal street blues?
That clarinet vibrato technique was amazing! What is that technique called exactly?
Nice
Great stuff! How is the tuning of the banjo?
he's probably in standard, which is CGDA
@@jennifert.4416 thx.
pasa lacqua Like a viola and mandola
Can I play this on my five string?
Yuri Danylko Yes but you’ll want to remove the fifth string since it can’t be fretted (for the most part).
Yes but you’ll probably want to invest in a tenor banjo if you plan on playing jazz. 5 strings are better for country or folk.
I only wanna play swing, don't have a lot of money so I made a kind of dampening tool so you don't hear the fifth string.
@@yuridanylko I also have a 5 string but can't invest in a tenor banjo. It took a while but I actually enjoy that high G to help with chord voicings. I also like to double the pitch using the high D. It can get kind of tricky avoiding that string but I'm sure you'll develop your own technique
@@fd95117 Thanks!
