I firmly believe that you are now teaching music improvisation to teachers everywhere, including music schools, how to teach music improvisation, especially jazz. I don't know what inspired you, Prof Dennis, but the impact you are having will last forever, or even change the course of jazz learning and teaching in ways you might not even be imagining. You are so explicit with it and doing it not for phenomenal profits. What more can we say? You are the very best.
Thank you!
Make so much sense. Transcribe what you can absorb at the moment and be able to use until you progresses more. Thanks again!
This video is very important to watch because none of us are inmortal. The experiences you share here has lots of knowledge and details that takes many years to realize and get in the complex world of learn.
Just want i'm needing rn. Thanks master.
Thanks Denis!
Thank you Dennis
Your playing sounds great!
Hey ! Professeur
Dennis awesome video dude Thankyou ! hope you get to where your going soon.
Great sounding guitar
Love that into tune
Merci Denis 👍
Your way of describing the jazz vocabulary learning process is the most practical / accessible I have ever encountered on the internet…. Thank you so much for putting out this content! There are a lot of amazing players out there who have no idea how to teach well and have completely lost touch with how themselves actually learned long ago. You’ve absolutely nailed it !! Any chance you’d be willing to put out a video demonstrating some of your favorite jazz vocabulary and help us understand how to apply it (and practice it)?? Would be such a game changer for me. Btw you sound American to me, yet stuck in Taiwan ?? What’s the background there ? Where are you moving to ? Best of luck man
Hi there are older videos on my channel with stuff that you asked about. I am Canadian but am frequently in Asia, Europe and North America :-)
@@DenisChangMusic right on, will do some more browsing of your content, cheers. I’m from Montreal (originally) btw ;)
U r great bro.....👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for one more great video, Denis! I quite like the idea of the lickspontaneity spectrum and placing certain players on that spectrum for the benefit of beginners in transcribing. Ironically I am able to copy what you do in the intro on Coquette, I love the sound, I can play it, memorize it, but I don't quite understand it :D. Would be grateful if someone is willing to explain bars 5-8, especially playing G#dim over A7 right at the end at bar 8.
Hi! The Ddim (or whatever you want to call it) is not related to A7 at all, it is what we call common tone diminished. It is an alternative to an A7 to create some kind of movement in the harmonies. I talk a lot about this in my Soundslice harmony course btw ;-) I explain in great detail the idea of turnarounds and also the concept of Harmonic Direction. It’s basically the idea that it is less about the individual chord symbols but about where and how the harmonies are moving in its most basic form. When you understand this concept, it becomes possible (with intelligence of course) to completely ignore certain chords and replace them with others that may even sometimes clash with the original chord (hence why it has to be done intelligently). I hope that kind of answers the question
Bar 5-6 is playing Gm over A7. Same principle of harmonic direction. This is a very old sound that people like Louis Armstrong, Django Reinhardt, Lester Young, Charlie Christian and many others used. The Gm isn’t too far removed from A7 in this case. The main difference is that instead of C# on A7 you have a D natural on the Gm chord. Otherwise they share the same chord tones. That’s one of the reasons why it works pretty well.
yes 🙌👍🎸🎼❤
Btw....could you tell me what kind of acoustic pickup on that guitar ?
What is the name of the tune in the intro?
Sounds like the chord progression of Coquette, but who knows since there are so many songs using that progression. The melody is not the one of Coquette though, maybe just an improvisation.
It is indeed Coquette.
