There's weeks of stuff in this 15 minutes Jason. You know you really are just the very best thing that has happened to the internet and to harmonica on the internet....Every single time, without fail, when I'm struggling with practice or inspiration you are there to get it to flow. That's my 'triangulation': Harmonica, Jason Ricci, inspiration. Then the 'Permutations' begin. Plus you make me laugh. Ha ha... keep going man I love what you do! So THANK YOU>)
Fantastic video! It's really helpful to someone like me who has no confidence in my ability to improvise. This is awesome and SO helpful!! Thank you for doing this videos - they really make a difference in my playing (at least I think so - not sure if anyone else would agree!).
With 3 notes the possibilities are 3! (3 factorial 3x2x1 = 6) With 4 notes 4! (4 factorial or 4x3x2x1 = 24), assuming no reuse of notes. 3 seems to be the sweet spot with a limited number of possibilities and no big jumps. Thanks Jason, you’re a stellar teacher and all knowledge if gold.
I love how in the midst of explaining the koolness of triangulations , you use an arrangement of the same words in a threes-some rhythm pattern!! Hah!!❤
I love so much to play and work on my triangle with the harmonica! A long time ago, a good harp player and friend of mine told me that he was seeing triangles we he played. At that time I didn't understand what he meant. Years later I discover you throw your harmonica lessons at first and then throw your incredible playing and everything came logical for me! Thank you so much for your help and your passion! You inspire me a lot as a player and as a teacher!
As usual, when my inner mind asks for help, you appear with the answer. I really like to hear you say, "ease & comfort". That's what workin at it brings. Sounds soo very good bro. Always appreciate your vids.
As you jammed on the three notes, I was reminded of the drum solo analogy you put forth at your recent clinic in Eugene. Once again, what you did would make a kick-ass three-drum solo. This is GREAT, exciting stuff you're teaching, and in combination with another of your clinic lessons (Spend 15 minutes per day practicing what you suck at.), my progress lately had been exponential. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
thanks Jason, i see in you a true genius, a remarkable teacher and a great source of motivation, not just for playng harmonica, but for training everyday to reach perfecction in the things you like, allways stiking to the intrensic basics, and building awesome things out of them and the interpreter´s creativity.
Dude, you should win some kind of award for this lesson! The only thing it was lacking was some cartoonish looking arrows following your finger in a triangle pattern on screen! I have always thought (or taught) to relate your playing to something you are familiar with. When a "12 bar" was 1st explained to me (thanks Tom Townsley), as well as 1/2, 1/4, 8th & 16th notes, I was able to "get it" by relating it to a ruler (12 inches, 1/2's, etc.). I knew a guitar player who related his music to colors (although that could have been the result from too many Dead shows!). Relating this triplet pattern with a "triangle" could not be explained any better than this! I can't express how valuable your lessons are to us, & I admire your humbleness. Thanks so much bro!
Hi brother Jason, been so long since I have had steady internet and a smart phone. Hahaha. . it's true ! Hey , hope you and Kate are enjoying your time off 😚 uh oh yeah I wasn't thinking the day I washed your van ( Hy 99 blues club) I was being goofy ( and I like Willie Wonka's office ) and you guys probably thought wtf ? Chris only washed' half ' of the van😕 don't know what I was thinking.. not many people do .. but I try to keep a sense of humor🙃😌 great lesson Bud ! Luv u
salut Jason dsl je ne parle pas ni comprend votre langue mais vous êtes vraiment très talentueux avec un jeu exceptionnelle de technique je prend des cours en France avec un très bon harmoniciste bien connus chez nous Jean marc henaux je lui est parler de toi ma dit que tu étais très fort et sa sentent vraiment bien merci beaucoup de mettre toutes c vidéo bise blues de France
Translation: hello Jason, I don’t speak or understand your language, you have an incredible technique. I am studying under a well known french harp player Jean Mark Henaux, I told him about you, he said you were really good. It sounded really good thanks for posting these videos. A big blues hello from France! (The last line is an alliteration that doesn’t translate exactly)
yay lessons , im drunk and ready to listen to you teach stuff and not actually do any of it, but possibly have it in the back of my mind when it will emerge at some point, like an ice berg this drunk watching of this video is 10 % and the 90% is gonna be somewhere in my mind im sure it will come in handy at some pint hahaha, much love dood, peace
I am a your student in China . Your videos are always inspired me , but I have one question is how u do that sounds when you breathing out(like a beat). When I do it breathing out the harp are making sound. How you can do it without harp sounds but like a beat ?
@@jasonricci maybe my English is poor to understand ,but just right now when I am doing practice I am kind of understand what you mean "Counting ", it like the sound when counting the cash paper money ?
@@pirespb if I get it right Jason means counting the bars of the song (think of 12 bar blues). He explains the special sounds (chugging) for example in th-cam.com/video/A4SYQ5Eztg8/w-d-xo.html
@@MarcoGidde aaaaa，i get it ，you are right counting the bar，I used to focus on how to do the sound but ignores why to do the sound ，thank you for your sharing 。
You can use either they are a both a G on a C harp. But it's easier to get to 2 draw bend or the other lower notes from 2 draw. Less jumping around and better tone... Thanks for the kind wishes!

But I needed YOUR math! Thank you!
But with repeats (131,232,323 etc ) 9 possibilities. And then 112,223,331...? even more 🙂
I love how in the midst of explaining the koolness of triangulations , you use an arrangement of the same words in a threes-some rhythm pattern!! Hah!!❤
Glad you liked it! Thank you 😊
I'm here 1.27.22 Doing my Homework Assignment!

My favorite harmonica player, period. If I die playing 10% of what Jason does, I'm happy. You're such an inspiration, man. Can't thank you enough.
93. you are the best
Great lesson! Good use of hand motions to help people see the triplet licks.
Thanks Bkim
I love the section where you defined permutations. Very scholarly.
HAAA!!! Knowledge is fun!
cool
Its your rhythmic phrasing that makes you the greatest harp player ever, thank you so much
That was great! Thank you so much Jason.
Thanks Ras!

Thanks D glad I was there!
Awesome! a nice little "brain reset" to put you in another space for improvising. love it!
Thanks Woozle!

Thanks Karl! I wanted those cartoon arrows Bruh!!!!
I learned a lot from this lesson. Thank you. 93/93 🌙🐈⬛
Watched lessons Vaudeville from Quebec he recommends the triangle system he learned from Ricci
Wow!!!!
Congratulations on the marriage!
Lovin' the triangulations, cheers mate.
Thanks for the donation Mal!!!
Your breathing made me think of someone beat boxing while playing harmonica? 😂 can you beat box? Lol
There's a couple vids on that actual subject by me. Just search those Key words.
Cool!
Your cool!
Xfaaa saludos
Love you Buddy! You know this..

This idea of triangulations has a nice Ring to it. Pun Intended.
HAAAA!!!!!
Do you always use 2hole blow for "G" note? dont you use 3hole blow ? congrats for you marriage!
You can use either they are a both a G on a C harp. But it's easier to get to 2 draw bend or the other lower notes from 2 draw. Less jumping around and better tone... Thanks for the kind wishes!
Thank you very much for the tip!! you rock :)
