Clearly you're at a level so beyond what I'll ever achieve. I've been playing since 1974 and frankly never beyond real novice. But I do enjoy watching and getting some kind of inspiration. Thanks.
This is excellent. Moving spread triads through a progression in various positions through a scale is perfect to learn the scale, the chords, and make something that sounds pretty-you play how you practice. 😊✌️
I only heard the term spread triads in the last year or so but I've been listening to Bach for decades and could listen to cello suites for example all day long.
i spent many years working thru' some of the bach repertoire on classical guitar. loved a lot of it, loathed some of it, forgot most of it but still play the odd fugue and gigue and partita. fernando sor anyone? tarrega - recuerdos..amazing stuff. great video. ta :)
I've played all the Bach Lute, Violin, and Cello, Suites, Sonatas, and Partitas on Guitar. Great music, challenging, fun, instructive, and insightful. For the most part, they all translate well to the guitar.
It took me 2 minutes of this video to realize that learning spread triads will open up a massive Pandora's box of new phrasings I haven't even scratched the surface on. They seem essential for an intermediate or above player to tackle.
Hell yeah bro this is the way to REALLY mic up a vintage tube amp in a top tier recording studio & for a smash hit record & get paid maybe mailbox money too -- busting ass to become a massively creative musician with a deep catalog of known musical harmonies, melodies & countermelodies to tap...
I studied with Joe Diorio for one year and he was in to this ”Intervallic Design”…some of your stuff have some similarities with his ideas. Very modern and open sounds…😊👍♥️
Hey John, I really like these educational videos!! I know maybe they don’t get as much engagement (I think people want to fantasise about gear more than they want to practice becoming better 😅). I’d love if you continued to make them, you should collate them into a playlist !! All the best, thanks for the vids 🥰
You’re missing a lot if you’re just concerned with “spread triads” in the cello suites, or really any of Bach’s works. If you’re not listening for melodic motion- compound and direct- and implied counterpoint, (not just voice leading) then you’re not even touching on where things get interesting.

Whenever John says something like “maybe this might help 1 or 2 of you” you know he’s about to drop some real knowledge
Your teaching videos are the best thing you do. Easily. Just wanted to give appropriate feedback. They're mostly what I show up for.
My ear loves a spread triad.

You just seem so genuine man appreciate your content so much

Thanks John , I feel like I have some homework to do this weekend, cool .

Or his Fugues...and of course the Brandenburg Concertos as Jon took a bit from.
@ yes I was going to mention Branden berg concertos!

Love this. It’s given me lots of ideas to play around with. Thank you. 🙏
Great lesson, a break down of the chord shapes you use would be fantastic too,
One other thing-making a point of using the inversions is a really good point…I often only think of spread triads as having the root in the bass.👍
Great demonstration and explanation, thank you !
Used to play that on the cello in school
Awesome video, thanks!
Thanks!

As much as his leads are what brought me, it's his rhythm playing that kept me around.
A thousand guitar players immediately start trying to play Bach lol
It’s Friday! I’ve got all night!
Great lesson

I read “spread triads” written on a pair of Eric Johnson’s underwear when he threw them out to the audience in 1984 in Denver.
A couple of years ago on Tom Bukovac's UA-cam channel
Love these videos!

to me it was when i watched a video of someone analyzing cliffs of dover... even tho i didnt know what they where then

First heard that phrase from Rick Beato...
Thanks
My guitar teacher first mentioned it.
Rick Beato a few years ago
Fun stuff
So is there a typical interval that you always spread out? Like can you spread out like the root, 3rd and the 5th interchangeable?
Would enjoy more content on anything triad-related, but not any “triad pair” content though….🤣
christ that fake cello sound made me rip my ears off
