Man, the under 30 generation has no idea how good we've got it now! I remember paying $40+ to purchase videos like this and all of the other great material out there for musicians (DCI videos, anyone?). To be able to get lessons like this for free??? Amazing.
I hear you, but when we had to pay for them, we watched every second, treasured the video cassettes like family heirlooms and watched them over and over. There is so much on TH-cam, it's sometimes difficult to stay with one thing for more than 10 minutes, regardless of how good it is. PS 3 and a half minutes later - when Gary started talking about Stan Getz, saying that the latter played by ear, adding that he had a limited knowledge of chords, I'm here for the duration!!!
Exactly. That's why we have so many child musical prodigies these days. TH-cam and the internet has made learning anything so easy, that people in our generation had virtually no information by comparison.
Gary just gave all the secrets right here. The simple truth is most people think it’s raw talent. That will take you a part of the journey. The rest is what a lot of folks don’t like. The hard word, repetition, practice, thinking aka visualization and it takes a high level of intelligence to put the theory and muscle memory together and play in time with vibe and flow. You have to look at it like going to school to become a surgeon. You do not get a free pass, you cannot fake it, you have to put in the work.

40yrs ago I was meant to be his student at Berklee College of Music,but my mama changed her mind.The Big Apple was not for me. 40yrs on I sat in his class today.Thanks TH-cam.
I am replying to your comment no less than 9 years (!) later to ask you this: Big Apple is "nickname" for New York, but Berklee College of Music is in Boston, right?!
It was 1974 I believe and Gary Burton had just won Jazzman of the year from downbeat magazine. I was working at a college in New York City and one of the things that I would do would be to book concerts. I received a call from a booking agent who said the Gary Burton quartet was in New York on its way do a European Tour and wanted to do an afternoon gig and perhaps do a little teaching to a jazz class. we didn't have a very big budget and even though they weren't asking for a whole lot just living expenses I went to the music department and they kicked in a few bucks. For about an hour and a half Gary talked to the jazz class and demonstrated on the vibes what he was talking about. sitting in the front row of the class were the four members of the faculty string quartet. at the end of the class the jazz professor came to me to say how pleased he was. He said Gary Burton emphasized the same things that he did in class and it was one thing for him a lowly jazz professor to say something but here was the jazz man of the year saying the same thing. Afterwards the quartet played for about a hour and a half. I have to say Gary Burton was one of the most warmest performers I ever encountered and I encountered many performers famous and not so famous.
20:45 "this is what the listeners are doing, they deal in contrast. They can tell the difference between major and minor (happy sad), pulses (steady beat), fast/slow, dissonant/consonant, loud/soft... etc" This
Yeah, Gary talks very admiringly about Stan's playing in his autobiography. There are also some laugh-out-loud, surreal moments involving Stan in the book. But you're right, Stan was one of the most lyrical players I can remember.

Love this. He touches on most of the important things in this one class. When you think of all the greats that emerged from under his mentorship as a teacher and bandleader, it's staggering.
Perhaps every music student should hear this, especially those who are serious about composing and playing rich, melodic chords and orchestral movements. It's the universal language, and it's communication through music. It's even artful.

I am pleased and astounded at how generous top players seem to be in a teaching environment. What a treat to hear the straight liquor in performance and critique from Mr. Burton.
Ah, gosh, I loved all that. And particularly what he said about comping. And I love that the second combo played Land's End, written by glorious tenor player Harold Land (best known for playing with Clifford Brown). Fabulous tune.
..another one of the great videos on TH-cam..when i was trying to learn improvisation at Berklee back in the 1970’s, there were very few options as far as good instruction goes besides expensive classroom learning, an amazing teacher, jamming with people that were way better than you, or if you were lucky, a parent or relative who would be able to pass their knowledge along..Gary Burton is the kind of musical guide who’s priceless..there are so many so called music teachers now on TH-cam or online who learned a few blow away licks and can deliver them cleanly at 220bpm and somehow feel that they are qualified to teach others as self appointed experts!..ego bullshit in it’s most basic form..in music, you got to work hard, eventually find your own voice, and then go beyond emulating the same 10 or 20 stereotypical people a lot of folks are stuck on.. Thank you for sharing this video..incredibly valuable if you really want to learn..stay safe an stay strong..music is life, jazz lives..New York November 27, 2021..
Gary Burton, what a great honest human being!! I am a Berklee Alumni and I'm very proud to have shared the halls with Gary Burton. We are always learning, music is a life's journey. Today I've learned even more from Mr. Burton. Great information about music, life and our responsibility as musicians. Thank you Loyola U for this great clinic. Always remember you can't fake it. I love this. LISTEN! Ralph Fava guitarist of 52 years.
I’ve recently been watching Comedy improv and thought this recommended video was a master class on comedy. As an amateur musician, I’ll keep this video on my watch list
Lots of very useful stuff here, as well as insights into Gary's thinking about improvisation and into his history. I would advise beginning as well as intermediary and advanced improvisers to really think about everything that Gary says and revisit this video. It's a useful roadmap for the big improv picture.
Wow. I bought a Gary Burton album over fifty years ago. I was seventeen, I think I liked the album cover, didn't really know what to make of it back then. So great to see him here. A wonderful lesson and what a recital of that Keith Jarrett piece! Simply amazing.
The BEST clinics ever on youtube on inside modes, chord scales, and common tone melodious movement on whatever complex piece of music that is in question, utilizing a basic vocabulary of the most used scale forms. AND----observing previous harmony/chords/keys esp. when there is no melody to guide what are the most inside smooth scales to utilize in those complex pieces of music.
Great information. I’m a self taught guitarist, playing now in my 53rd year. Beautiful to see/hear this info. I’ve been playing it but never knew the names associated with the chord scales. 😎🤘
No kidding..... empty seats! Any aspiring musician would be crazy to miss a chance to listen to Gary Burton talk about improvisation. Probably the improviser and jazz educator of our generation!
That little farming town Gary is from is my hometown Princeton Indiana. He is a little older than me and was gone by the time I was going through school but I’ve followed his career from home. He’s simply the best.
i'm high and just got done watching Whose Line Is It Anyways clips and it took me an entire two minutes to realize this wasn't about improv comedy. But I'm also a musician who needs to learn about improv so I might stick around.
Would love to benefit from so honest and to the point feedbacks. Not only a great artist but a great teacher too. Question of high awareness and humility. Top notch!
The segment from 1:12:12 to 1:13: 12 and beyond ... is a snippet from a piece by Gary that I've been haunted by for 45 years ... back in 1977, while I was in High School, Gary gave a workshop at the Hilton Hotel in Pittsburgh, PA and played a composition that I believe he introduced as "Arizona Sunrise" or "Santa Fe Sunrise" or something similar ... I'm hoping a fellow fan might provide the correct title and album that I might find it on ...
Improv is very useful when it comes to songwriting and arranging melodies in song form. I will be very happy when I can express exactly what's on my heart with the use of proper scales.
At around 56 minutes, he talks about listening to others in the band while accompanying. I’ve been on both sides of that gap, although not in a jazz format. It’s wonderful to always be tuned in to the rest of the band. But, on the other hand, sometimes if I am soldiering on, hitting the right chords at the right time, the soloist can find their way back to the song after losing the thread of what they are singing or playing. And, in another variation of that scene, we sort of both hear the problem and “move towards each other” on the rhythm or harmony. Gary explains so much here that even a person like me who is only a fan of jazz improvisation can get a deeper appreciation for the process and the joy of improvisation.
Hi Mike how are you doing today. I wish you a happy new year. I believe you are in good health. I hope this year brings happiness, good health, prosperity love and peace all over the world, I live in Duluth, Minnesota.
Gary is amazing at teaching and playing ! His voice always reminds me of warren buffet for some reason lol He does have a wealth of musical knowledge. :)
I had the good fortune to hear Gary Burton playing with Chick Correa at the Barbican Centre in London. What came across was a dialectic being refined. It was a thoroughly enjoyable occaission. “ This is what we’re going to fool around with” he said during the course of the evening. ‘Fool around’ some more Sir.

I am pleased and astounded at how generous top players seem to be in a teaching environment. What a treat to hear the straight liquor in performance and critique from Mr. Burton.
Ah, gosh, I loved all that. And particularly what he said about comping. And I love that the second combo played Land's End, written by glorious tenor player Harold Land (best known for playing with Clifford Brown). Fabulous tune.
This is BEYOND priceless. Thank you for this!! Gary, thank you for being YOU!
lesson for life for these lads in the combos. Real Master class. Thanks CFMAE for sharing.
Thank you for posting these videos. What an education TH-cam can offer.
I can't believe this is free. Explained all the topics so well and covered everything that I always took for granted.
very inspiring, thank you Gary and Loyola University for sharing this!
Probably the best and most practical explanation about improvisation we'll ever have. Thanks Gary and Loyola, this is gold!
this is the best music class i've ever seen, not just the video, but the coments too.
you guys are awesome
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. Very helpful to many serious musicians. I love Gary Burton.
Soo appreciative of this lecture!!! I have been looking for something like this for a long time… so direct and helpful!!!
This is great ! Thank goodness for TH-cam.Thanks for download CFMAE.
..another one of the great videos on TH-cam..when i was trying to learn improvisation at Berklee back in the 1970’s, there were very few options as far as good instruction goes besides expensive classroom learning, an amazing teacher, jamming with people that were way better than you, or if you were lucky, a parent or relative who would be able to pass their knowledge along..Gary Burton is the kind of musical guide who’s priceless..there are so many so called music teachers now on TH-cam or online who learned a few blow away licks and can deliver them cleanly at 220bpm and somehow feel that they are qualified to teach others as self appointed experts!..ego bullshit in it’s most basic form..in music, you got to work hard, eventually find your own voice, and then go beyond emulating the same 10 or 20 stereotypical people a lot of folks are stuck on..
Thank you for sharing this video..incredibly valuable if you really want to learn..stay safe an stay strong..music is life, jazz lives..New York November 27, 2021..
Who are some of favorite improvisers/musicians?
Fantastic class. Worth each minute. The secrets, detaiils, tips, real examples and so. Thanks Gary
Thanks for the upload, this lesson is very helpful, interesting and fun! Watched twice in a row.
Perfect. cant stop watching this awesomeness. Gary is Great.
Gary Burton, what a great honest human being!! I am a Berklee Alumni and I'm very proud to have shared the halls with Gary Burton. We are always learning, music is a life's journey. Today I've learned even more from Mr. Burton. Great information about music, life and our responsibility as musicians. Thank you Loyola U for this great clinic. Always remember you can't fake it. I love this. LISTEN! Ralph Fava guitarist of 52 years.
I’ve recently been watching Comedy improv and thought this recommended video was a master class on comedy. As an amateur musician, I’ll keep this video on my watch list
Lots of very useful stuff here, as well as insights into Gary's thinking about improvisation and into his history. I would advise beginning as well as intermediary and advanced improvisers to really think about everything that Gary says and revisit this video. It's a useful roadmap for the big improv picture.
Mr Burton - What a master educator - this is gold - it would be useful in any improv class.
Wow. I bought a Gary Burton album over fifty years ago. I was seventeen, I think I liked the album cover, didn't really know what to make of it back then. So great to see him here. A wonderful lesson and what a recital of that Keith Jarrett piece! Simply amazing.
Simplicity, common sense, ears, mastery - A real human being is indeed Gary Burton
You are extremely generous for posting This. Watched every minute
This is what i love about youtube… free education from a master musician… thank you!! 🙏
what an amazing masterclass. I went to music school and can't remember a class being so informative and positive. Thank you to gary and Loyola.
The BEST clinics ever on youtube on inside modes, chord scales, and common tone melodious movement on whatever complex piece of music that is in question, utilizing a basic vocabulary of the most used scale forms. AND----observing previous harmony/chords/keys esp. when there is no melody to guide what are the most inside smooth scales to utilize in those complex pieces of music.
I had this in my watch later for about a year thinking it was for acting and only upon watching it now, I realize that it is in fact for music
I am going to steal so much of this for my students. Great musician and great teacher.
I greatly appreciate him for sharing his genius!
Great information. I’m a self taught guitarist, playing now in my 53rd year. Beautiful to see/hear this info. I’ve been playing it but never knew the names associated with the chord scales. 😎🤘
Now THIS is a masterclass!
Thank you for this video, thank you Gary! Cheers from Brazil!
This is great. Thanks for posting this master class
excellent lecture!! Thank you so much for posting this!!!
I am going to have to watch this a few times, I don't want to miss anything in this lesson in virtuosity. :)
lucky kids for having such a great guy doing a seminar and lucky us for you tube so we can all see it
No kidding..... empty seats! Any aspiring musician would be crazy to miss a chance to listen to Gary Burton talk about improvisation. Probably the improviser and jazz educator of our generation!
Essential advice on improvisation for all jazz musicians’ from a jazz master. A masterclass of the highest order.🙏🌞🇬🇧👍☯️🙏2022.
Man I love the guitar solo, simple, groovy, loots of feeling
I saw Gary live many years ago at a small venue in Evanston, IL. We were both a lot younger then, but he was amazing then just as he is now.
That little farming town Gary is from is my hometown Princeton Indiana. He is a little older than me and was gone by the time I was going through school but I’ve followed his career from home. He’s simply the best.
i'm high and just got done watching Whose Line Is It Anyways clips and it took me an entire two minutes to realize this wasn't about improv comedy.
But I'm also a musician who needs to learn about improv so I might stick around.
THANK YOU MR BURTON! Incredible thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience! AWESOME!
Seek and Listen! Thank you Gary Burton!
what a privilege to watch this masterclass!
This is absolute gold.
I could have filled that empty bench. Such a great class class. Gary Burton is such an awesome teacher.
A wonderful teacher in action! Brilliant.
Would love to benefit from so honest and to the point feedbacks. Not only a great artist but a great teacher too. Question of high awareness and humility. Top notch!
Thanks so much for the upload, Loyola U.
Thank you for your service.
I’m struck by the parallel between improvising and composing music.
Similar to the parallel between speed chess and classical slow chess.
Wow how I feel this comment
Improvising IS composition. It’s just not written down immediately.
Mozart didn’t write things down immediately.
Schoenberg wrote an entire book dedicated to finding different ways to develop musical motives and phrases.
@@staringcontest9733 wow! which book is it?
Most 16th-19th century composers did both
Your performance at around 1:10 brought tears to my eyes. You really brought that sad, hopeful chord progression alive!
The segment from 1:12:12 to 1:13: 12 and beyond ... is a snippet from a piece by Gary that I've been haunted by for 45 years ... back in 1977, while I was in High School, Gary gave a workshop at the Hilton Hotel in Pittsburgh, PA and played a composition that I believe he introduced as "Arizona Sunrise" or "Santa Fe Sunrise" or something similar ... I'm hoping a fellow fan might provide the correct title and album that I might find it on ...
Improv is very useful when it comes to songwriting and arranging melodies in song form. I will be very happy when I can express exactly what's on my heart with the use of proper scales.
What an epic video! Legendary musician, legendary teacher.
Pure Gold this lesson
Thank you for posting this.
Great masterclass! Thanks for sharing this!
very nice lesson. had fun watching it and learned some things!
kudos to the students! well done
this is brilliant. thank you for posting!
this is actualy the best lesson in ltfe ive ever seen
Wow! I wish I could go to a Gary Burton class!
Great video. Great way to understand improvisation.
The golden rule of improvisation: every bad note us just a half step up or down to a right note.
At around 56 minutes, he talks about listening to others in the band while accompanying. I’ve been on both sides of that gap, although not in a jazz format. It’s wonderful to always be tuned in to the rest of the band. But, on the other hand, sometimes if I am soldiering on, hitting the right chords at the right time, the soloist can find their way back to the song after losing the thread of what they are singing or playing. And, in another variation of that scene, we sort of both hear the problem and “move towards each other” on the rhythm or harmony. Gary explains so much here that even a person like me who is only a fan of jazz improvisation can get a deeper appreciation for the process and the joy of improvisation.
Hi Mike how are you doing today. I wish you a happy new year. I believe you are in good health. I hope this year brings happiness, good health, prosperity love and peace all over the world, I live in Duluth, Minnesota.
Gary is amazing at teaching and playing ! His voice always reminds me of warren buffet for some reason lol He does have a wealth of musical knowledge. :)
I had the good fortune to hear Gary Burton playing with Chick Correa at the Barbican Centre in London. What came across was a dialectic being refined. It was a thoroughly enjoyable occaission. “ This is what we’re going to fool around with” he said during the course of the evening. ‘Fool around’ some more Sir.
I am not a very good "musician" ..I realize this, But I love to play and I got So much from this!!! Changed me!
Thanks for sharing so interesting and useful material!
Brilliant! Thanks for the upload!
muito obrigado pelo vídeo.
estou acompanhando a aula daqui do Brasil e achei extremamente proveitosa.
Gary Burton... what a great tecaher speaker and lesson,,, please watch this i promise
This is an astounding lecture. Incredibly valuable
I thought Loyola University was in Chicago?
There's more than one Loyola.
I love Gary's explanation here. I wish he would come back to performance. I realize he needs rest, but we need him!
Steve, did you used to live in Ft. Collins? I think I played a gig with you for a weird country singer contest. you played drums, not vibes.
Thank you for sharing, this is great stuff!
