    ‘If you take off a day you might lose what you practised a day earlier’ What a slap-your-forehead moment! Beautiful wise statement - all the more powerful for being simple and obvious…

    In rehearsal with a guitarist friend, I was introduced to Jimmy Bruno. I'd felt I had known you, Jimmy, for at least the past 30 years! Not only is your music and approach so damn tasteful, but you've got a real human way with everything. I'm not sure how I missed you, but it's never too late. For all of you out there, Jimmy is THE MAN.

    Jimmy, you just made me realize something at 3:00. I dig movement. Music gets more interesting when there's a sense of movement. Heck, even drums! When you add grace notes or let your stick bounce to a stop on the snare, it's movement. Thank you for teaching us all about feeling. It's a big part of what music is about.

    Great Sery Jimmy. I am a very old friend of Jack Wilkins and learnt a lot from him in the end of the 90's. He came to Montreal 3 times for a week to help me with my playing and I went half a dozen times to his place in NYC.I offered him 2 instruments, the Tal Farlow he is still playing with and a very nice old L7C. I just realized it was almost 20 years ago and I do not believe he would recognize my playing though...
    I like your playing and I think this very of yours is great .

  • @blanebostock
    @blanebostock 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Thanks Mr. Bruno. I studied with Ed Flanagan, Joe Federico and Dennis Sandole a hundred years ago. It is great to hear you put into simple terms concepts that can so easily fill the student's mind with confusion. I studied jazz with those teachers for seven years, but then came the siren call of flamenco music and I strayed from that training ground, but all those years of theory, ear training, improvisation have helped me immensely to crack the codes of another kind of difficult music. Also, my ability to take a phrase and expand it has also slowed my progress in gaining the fundamentals of flamenco; it was too easy for me to take a line and twist it into something else, so I had to really discipline myself to keep it simple and learn from the bottom up again. Thanks for sharing your lifetime of experience.

    • @phazyme
      @phazyme ปีที่แล้ว

      Seems. all the players from Philly went to Dennis Sandole . I know three of them and they all play in a similar fashion- well. He wrote a book but he passed before I ever would have had a chance to learn
      From him. 14:28

    This was great! One can spend a lot of time on TH-cam trying to figure out how to learn the guitar but the reality is that you won't learn the guitar on TH-cam. One must put in the long hours and the work. Practice, practice, practice and then practice some more.

    I must say I've only just literally a couple days back rediscovered Jimmy Bruno (I first discovered and regularly enjoyed listening to him back in the early 90s). Now the rediscovery is more likely to become a religion, as long as Mr Bruno keeps uploading these treasure chest! A new but equally fascinating addition to his music is his verbal discourse and musical-social practical concepts. THANKS, Jimmy!!

    From starting to really learn both, Jazz Guitar, as in the way jazz guitarists like Jimmy Bruno play, is like slightly simplified classical guitar. They both merge chord voicings and arpeggios and melodic lines into the playing, instead of just doing a chord progression.
