I am currently teaching Blue Bossa in my Jazz Improvisation class. I can't wait to show them this video. My high school students already know how to read, so that's not a problem. Everything that you have said, I have said in my class. This information applies to every jazz tune. Love it! Thanks!
works for every instrument! each step is important and needs (a whole lot of) time before moving to the next one. realising that learning jazz takes time and a lot of work made a big difference for me personaly and my learning experience.
So clear and easy to follow. I've long been one of those players you mentioned that puts on a backing track and basically just attempts to find a way through it by ear. This approach is just what I need. Thanks.
Would be so nice to have you’re chord analyses available in the play along apps. So we can see the numerals instead of chords and the scales we can use.
I will learn arpeggios, emphasize chord tones on the downbeat only to listen later to a solo which doesnt seem to pay attention to what the chords are and they also like to play the 4th (11th) interval on strong beats
Beautiful! Great! I am not on the level to use it - yet - but it is a great and very clear lesson. Your instrument and the sound you produce are wonderful!
@@Learnjazzstandards I apply the approaches: both the chromatic and diatonic approaches. So far, I work / play with the blues chord progression. As I also keep working on my fretboard fluency (I play bass) and on the whole circle of 4ths / 5ths, I will soon no loger be scared of those chords like Ebmin7 and following. At least, the roman numerals are already helpful. ... I will get there!
Joao Gilberto never played Blue Bossa lol. It's not a Brazilian tune. You could learn Giberto's picking pattern and to pronounce his name quite easily. Also, Manha de Carnaval. It's not that difficult. I enjoy your courses guys, but considering how many Brazilian tunes are jazz standards, putting in some time would not be asking too much, considering.
Hey there! We weren’t referring to Joao Gilberto playing Blue Bossa - we were talking about Bossa Nova comping patterns, important to make that clarification. Also important to note Gilberto doesn’t have one picking pattern to learn. So learning a basic pattern is a starting place to expand rhythmically from there. Hope that makes sense!

And the journey can be fun every step of the way!

You're welcome!
This is a great video, Brent. You really cover the whole exercise in one shot. There are literally months of work here. More like this please!
Glad you found it helpful!
Great job, Brent! You are making Jazz more accessible for so many!🎉
Thanks Bruce! Happy to do it
Thank you for this and the other one specifically about the changes. Very helpful teaching technique and visuals.
I dig the orange gloves, man. They really tie the room together.

Glad to hear John!
incredible thank u
thanx a lot
My pleasure!
Here is my heresy though: I love to play the B natural during the G7#5 chord (Db#9) in the melody. I get strange looks , but I think it sounds cool. 🤣
Beautiful! Great! I am not on the level to use it - yet - but it is a great and very clear lesson.
Your instrument and the sound you produce are wonderful!
Thanks Jens! I wonder, even though you say you aren’t quite at the level yet, what’s one thing you could take away and apply?
