Nicely presented. Really true about learning one song form intimately. That builds the harmonic understanding and the abiity to move between key centers with familiarity and confidence. Keep up the good work!
I've had the hardest time learning jazz standards. Not the chords or keys, but a solid approach to learning them. Experienced jazzers tell me "don't use the real book or sheet music, use your ears and listen to the recordings!" However, the recordings are played in a myriad of tempos, keys, and variants that make it near impossible to have a clear concept of what is "correct". I start learning by ear and then get corrected "it's not a G7 there, it's a G7b9..."but how would i know that without referring to the sheet music?!
Often we will add a 9 or a 6 to create tension, but G7 is a G7. So you are not "wrong", you're just not trained to listen to the tension. My rule of thumb is: listen to the original version of the song. Look for who wrote it and listen to the earlier album version (musicians tend to go wild live). Then, get the melody right. So, once you get this 2 (the original version and the melody), you "know" a song. The rest are simple variations of the same pattern...
Learn how the II-V progressions move around relative to each other. If you learn the blues and it’s variations as well as rhythm changes you’ll have hundreds if not thousands of tunes at your fingertips.
Thanks for sharing! Always great lessons! Question… and not to be trivial. Your acoustic tone is awesome. Would you mind sharing what string mfr/gauge you’re using here?
Quibble with the Autumn Leaves. I was taught that the proper chord is a minor 6th, not a minor 7th. So Gm6. That's the way Bill Evans plays it. If you listen to Miles/Cannonball, their introduction is just noodling a Gm6 chord. The minor ii-V is derived from the G harmonic minor scale which very obviously has the F# in it. And when you resolve to the Gm, you are in melodic minor territory. Bb and F#. I know this might seem pedantic, but I think it becomes important as you try to learn how to improvise.
@@infinite-guitar I didn't mention "ii dim to IV." I did say IImaj7 (sub for ii dim) to V (V in the mediant key). I was tired and read it as Cm. so there's a mistake on my part. But my point is this... in Ab, we have Db, F, Ab. In C the ii is D, F, A. They share the F. The trick is smoothly transitioning from Ab to C. While Db to G isn't a traditional 2-5, it's sort of a borrowed 2b-5-1 in C (where the key change happens on the 5) and makes the key change pretty smooth. But if it were in minor, which is the situation I was thinking of while writing, it's even more interesting because the only difference between the Dbmaj7 (Ab: Db, F, Ab, C) and Ddim (Cm: D, F, Ab, C) is the half step from D to Db. But really, how it sounds is more important tha a bunch of theory gobbly gook. Just noticing patterns and relationships.
@@Darling_wanders hi, thanks for that, you didn't mention IV, the youtuber called DbMaj7 the IV. anyway I get your point, ps your channel looks interesting, I will check it out, I'm not a vegan LOL
Most instruments are transposing instruments, sax, trumpet, and most others. Concert means the key or note that when played on a piano is the actual note that sounds. Ask a tenor sax player to play a C and you will hear a Bb. Ask a tenor sax player to play a concert C and you will get a C. Guitar is a transposing instrument, it sounds one octave below written. The note that sounds middle C is notated for guitar in the third space, but in concert ie written for piano, is notated on the first ledger line below the staff. Arrangers and conductors need to know this very well. Hope that helps.
@@ruvenw ok so what do you say @learnjazzstandards ? Are you going to share with your fellow guitar and jazz lovers or keep it locked away in your personal little vault? 😂😂🎸👍
@@the_guitar_generation you could do color coding in literally almost any program or app that can handle photos. Just off the top of my head I can think of Photoshop, Illustrator, Excel, PowerPoint for computers. You could download any photo editing app for your smartphone, but with work you could just do it with the photos app. (I only know iPhone). I’d just use the screen record option on my smartphone and scroll it manually to make the scroll effect.
Thanks for this video. I’m keen to know as a Musio lifetime owner (Musio 1), will they honour the lifetime unlimited access? Point 3 raised in this video.

I think the zoom on your camera is faulty.
The constant camera shift is distracting.
Yup, can't unsee this....
Must be a auto focus issues

@@fttoniato Solid practical advice
Get John Elliott’s: “Insights in Jazz Piano”
Learn how the II-V progressions move around relative to each other. If you learn the blues and it’s variations as well as rhythm changes you’ll have hundreds if not thousands of tunes at your fingertips.
So… to learn hundreds of Jazz standards, first you must train your ear by learning hundreds of jazz standards. ;)
Very clear.. thank you
Thanks for sharing! Always great lessons!

Looks like flat wound strings…. Good video.
Great lesson man , took a lot of the mystery out of it. Way too advanced for me but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Glad it helped!
Thankfully It help me a lot.

The tonal center of each section in all the Things also outlines an Ab maj7. The Dmaj7 is a sub for the diatonic ii dim. Making that another 2-5-1
That's how it sounds to me but could you please explain how the "sub" from ii dim to IV works ?

What’s the meaning of the term “concert” that you used? ie. Concert Bb and concert Gm.
Most instruments are transposing instruments, sax, trumpet, and most others. Concert means the key or note that when played on a piano is the actual note that sounds. Ask a tenor sax player to play a C and you will hear a Bb. Ask a tenor sax player to play a concert C and you will get a C. Guitar is a transposing instrument, it sounds one octave below written.

Mark up the charts?
I´d be interested too! (regarding colour coding the chord charts)

Nice video. :)
Wasn’t that the title of a book by Dale Carnegie?
Color coding is the best....
My dude changed the camera zoom 22 times in the first minute. 🙄
for our attention span haha
Why does the video keep zooming in and out?
Thank you for your comment. We will make some adjustments in the upcoming videos.
right?
During this video, I for some reason kept feeling drawn towards you. :)
This would be such a good video but the zoom editing made it totally unwatchable. No idea why you did this, it pretty much gave me motion sickness.
Thank you for your comment. We will make some adjustments to our upcoming videos
I didn't understand a single thing of entire 15 minute video.
