Thanks for having me, and I hope this inspires some folks to dip their toes into this style of guitar playing! 🙂
Bro I am a big fan of yours since so many years. I couldn't believe that Beatles songs could be arranged so beautifully on guitar when I first saw your videos !!!
Hello Adrian, I remember your interpretation of some Beatles songs from a few years ago, and was mightily impressed with your playing back then.
This was wonderful, and displayed some really great playing from both of you. It certainly has generated my interest in this style of playing, and encouraged me to learn more. Thanks to both of you.
Thanks for breaking it down. Great video
Wow, the first time I had seen/heard you I was a kid just learning guitar. Love all your arrangements and work!!!
Nice present under the Christmas tree. My big take away 1/2 bend from 1/2 step below to reach the 9th or 6th.Thank you both it was fun to watch
For the programmers out there, Adrian Holovaty is the author of Django - one of the most popular web frameworks for Python. Now I know why he named it Django!
Didn't know that, thanks!
Woah woah woah man
that's definitely a great insight. His Romani Jazz guitar influence and love for Django Reinhardt.
Wow! Mystery unraveled!
😮😮😮 that's amazing!!!
I admire Paul for not over-rehearsing while shooting this video and presenting the process of learning this music style in the most authentic way. What a fun video to watch!
It’s cool that he doesn’t let his ego get in the way of his excellent teaching. 💙
I can't believe nobody mentioned the fact that Django basically only had the use of 2 fingers as well! Insane
I kept waiting for someone to mention that.
Watching this is just therapy...
The pureness of it all. Its breathtaking
And he was breathtakingly fast with those two fingers too!
This was actually what inspired Tony Iommi to keep playing after his accident- having to play with a focus on his two good fingers influenced his style a lot and made Black Sabbath what it was
@@coryman125 By extension the ENTIRE Metal genre owes its existence to Django Reinhardt! 😎🤘💪🍻
If there is such a phenomenon as a perfect lesson between a master teacher and advanced student, this is it. Beautifully executed.
Well put
Which is which? Paul is the master teacher?
Can’t be a teacher (Paul is a great one) without being a student. That never stops, hopefully. 🙂
It's amazing how modest Paul is about his playing. He picks things up right away but still remains humble in his approach to others.
Yes, makes me feel at ease, listening to Paul, he's not showing off, and the Django dude he's the same, great teaching guys.
Dango Rheinhardt was a one off.
His tone, feel and expression were just sublime. The fact he improvised his solo on "See You In My Dreams" is absolutely mind blowing.
Adrian is a lovely guitarist and has the "Gypsy Jazz" timbre and feel perfected.
To my ears the substitute Dmin 7/5 chord sounded very similar to the chord Andy Summers used in "Walking In The Moon" but that could just be my ears.
Totally agree. You can play all the right notes but you will never get the fullness of expression or the timbre and tone that Django did
I’m old enough to have listened to and admired Django music when I was a youngster in the 1950s and into the 60s. I’m not a great guitarist, but I’ve been at it long enough that nothing in here was really new to me. That said, this is one of the most outstanding guitar videos I have ever watched, largely due to how you developed the topic and the rationale and feigned learning even though I’m sure it was all rudimentary to you. Absolutely loved explaining, and demonstrating the difference between bending the strings Django style, as opposed to bending notes for rhythm and blues. Again, intuitively, I know it, but had never seen anyone discuss and demonstrate the differences. I can’t overstate how valuable I think this would be to a beginner. I’ve never played much Gypsy jazz, but have been intrigued by the chords and will use this video as a launching pad for learning to play them better. Well done, guys.
@guermeisterdoodlebug7980 : You saved me a lot of typing because I was going to say the same thing but not as well.😂😂
I love how musical he can make just two notes sound, what a player!
Yeh the 1, 5 based "solo" was eye opening--- A way to move around or to do simple fills while staying out of the way, this is something so simple, but useful.
Adrian Holovaty!! He's one of the first musician youtubers I ever watched, over 10 years ago at this point. Incredible player
OMG as a gypsy and guitarist I’ve been waiting for you to talk about gypsy jazz since 2019 brother! I know you’re Dutch and you have such inspiring gypsy jazz musicians in Netherlands such as the legend himself Stochelo Rosenberg!! ❤❤❤ excited to watch this video! Keep up the amazing work.
Beautiful work
And of course Robin Nolan, based in Amsterdam 😀👍
It was great to see your genuine joy that exactly expressed what me and probably many other viewers also felt hearing the amazing little Django techniques played perfectly by Adrian :)
Hey I have a question for you. I'm a dumb American and we don't have a big Roma population in my part of the country. But isn't "gypsy" a slur?
Don't forget Paulus Schäfer. Also a Dutch gypsy jazz master.
Absolutely dynamite lesson from both of you. The video editing was over the top as usual, much appreciated for this free content
This was such a pure and magical journey to watch you take together. I love how both of you are so humble, yet such amazing musicians. Thank you for sharing.
paul, these kinds of lessons are so enlightening and qualitative. I really applaud you for making this freely available for everybody to watch and learn from. I know a lot of work goes into these lessons, recording the footage/sound and making a coherent story out of it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!!!
Please do more on this topic! When my teacher introduced me to this style it opened a new world to me. You really have to talk about Jango‘s two finger technique and the story behind it. Breaking down chords to the core notes, using different scales, Joscho Stephan and other artists like the Rosenberg family.
Gypsy Jazz is a rabbit hole 🤘
I knew nothing about this style or it’s history. Very well presented. Love how you guys walked through it in a progressive style. Thanks!
It was fun seeing how much fun you were having learning this. Thanks Paul!
I can't believe you're hanging out with Adrian! That's awesome! Glad to a large UA-camr shining some light on this amazing genre. Thanks Paul!
how cool, I randomly decided to learn Minor Swing about 2 weeks ago and have been slowly building up and learning measure by measure for the past 2 weeks and have been progressing well. To see one of my favorite creators doing a Django video this morning is like a little nod from the universe that I should be listening to more jazz
I love watching two exceptional guitar players go back and forth like this. I love gypsy jazz, and this is inspirational! Thank you!
Thank you so much for putting this together! I am in love with Gypsy Jazz lately. These gradual complexity videos ARE AWESOME 😎👍 thank you so 🙏
Finally! Thanks so much, Paul, I’ve been waiting for it and I’m not disappointed. Very appreciated! Cheers🎉
Wow, thank you both so much. I’ve loved Gypsy Jazz for years but always found it a little too mystifying to really replicate. Now you’ve opened the door!
I love that there is no end to the amount of different influences and styles that we as musicians can add to our bag of tricks. It's also amazing to hear how related Gypsy Jazz and Blues music are.
My absolute favorite style of jazz to listen to (wouldn't be able to play it)
Walked into a jazz bar in Ghent (Belgium) and a dude and his dad played a whole set of gypsy style covers of George Brassens' chansons.
It was heaven ❤
Thanks David voor de aandacht voor deze toch wel onderbelichte muziekstijl :)
There are few things better than watching Paul authentically learning things from other masters. THAT is the true spirit of both learning and teaching. Few people can be good teachers if they aren't also good learners.
Also, Adrian has been one of the best at the give-and-take with Paul in these style exploration videos. Great stuff. I'd love to see a whole series with these two.
Loved this video, it's quite timely as we just lost one of Canada's best guitar pickers, and the best gypsy jazz players I've ever met. A man I was proud to call a friend, Nova Scotia's Bill Elliott. RIP Bill, and thanks Paul for the great videos. Keep up the great work. - Nova Scotia
Beautiful. A delight to watch and listen to & also to see you both relishing and enjoying the genious of Django and the fun of learning and sparking off someone else. I can't wait to try it. Thanks so much also for naming and displaying the chord voicings so graphically. Merry Christmas.
Been subscribed to Adrian for years, even before Paul! Great to see him getting a bit more spotlight, he’s a wonderful player and inspiring to say the least!!
Fantastic breakdown of the gypsy jazz style. The explanation here is one of the most clear I’ve heard. Super easy to understand how to think about it, and how to build up your own approach.
So cool yet so accessible, I've mastered much of this style just by following along! Thank you Paul and Adrian for this brilliant lesson!
Thank you for the lesson, the playing and the tabs.👍 Adrian's feel and tone is amazing🎆
GREAT TO WATCH YOU TWO FELLAS. THANKS FOR THIS TUTORIAL X
Your video is soo informative!!❤
Way too go Paul
Excellent lesson. I am always amazed at how you find things to teach me that I didn't know I wanted to learn Paul. Thanks a lot to both you and Adrian showing me this great style and technique!
I love it! Such a nice vibe in the room: a little bit of a tension between two players, but the music makes it smooth. Very good job of explaining everything, now I know where to start to play Django style!
Paul you provide such wonderful education. I will never ever forget how important Paul Davids was to the foundation of my guitar knowledge. All I can say is thank you, and please know that I mean it more than the words can convey. You are important to me, and thank you for giving me so many lessons for free. From the bottom of my heart to the bottom of yours, THANK YOU!!!
All your videos are great. This is one of your best! I get to have fun and enjoy the music while learning so much. Thanks!
What a great way to present this... it was fun to watch and had me smiling. That is what Django does.
Simply wonderful! first time I understand the essence of django style! a few hours of work and we can begin to loop a decent rhythm and then the fun will begun! Many thanks Paul and Adrian!
Chapeau! Eindelijk een video die jazz op gitaar eenvoudig laat lijken. Inspirerend 🎸
i love these kind of deep dives on style, where you can geek out about the precise technique and variations on a technique that bring out a particular voice
Adrian Holovaty is a Legend for me. Know his playing since the earliest days of youtube when i first startet out playing the Guitar. Found his Channel by total accident and his playing was propably my first touch with Jazz. Awesome Guitar Player!
AWESOME Video. So much information and great ideas for adding new colour to soloing. There is nowhere near enough videos about Django online. One of the all time greats.
I've always been a big fan of your channel but this video really stepped it up a notch. I've been aware of Django for more than a year now but never got super into his music. This video though made me immediately stop what I was doing and go grab my guitar. Now I've got a melody, and a bass line to go with this progression and I've been noodling for an hour straight. Totally inspirational video
The first guitar I ever heard was my Dad playing Django LPs, still love it even now....thank you for this!
Honestly one of the best lessons Ive ever watched for an intermediate player or anybody checking out gypsy jazz! Nice!
Paul. Thank you so much for diving into a Master that is not as appreciated today. It was amazing to see some of the subtle flair that he brought to guitar.
Lovely presentation and pace to this. Great video, as always!
This was awesome. I really enjoyed the format. I will spend the night getting this down cold. I can already feel the arthritis.
Thanks Adrian for the tips and for Sound Slice. I love and support the technology.
love it, thanks Paul and guest
What a great guitar lesson! Never knew about this genre although I had heard of Django. Thanks for posting this!
Thanks Paul & Adrian, that was so well walked thru', from the essential chord structure to the alternatives that give that Manouche feel, as well as the titbits about where the 6th is & the "non-blues" bends etc. There must be hundreds of thousands of guitarists who can play this but have little or no understanding of the theory & your relaxed approach made it so easy to just sit in & go through it with you, Excellent! Playing for 50 years & plenty still to learn!
Thanks for the video Paul, you’ve always been very inspirational to me, but this video really helped. Also, a very special thank you to Adrian!
✌️😎🎸🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶
Adrian is a great choice to give this lesson/these tips, thanks Paul
Thanks Adrian and Paul for this introduction to Gypsy Jazz, you gave me inspiration to discover new themes on my guitar journey. I'll try to incorporate some elements in my daily practice routine 🤗
What a joyful video! Also packed with so much simple but effective information. I don't really ever want to play Gypsy jazz, but what a beautiful style, with so much you can transfer to soloing, especially over stuff that isn't blues or rock. Brilliant.
It's a surprise that the founder of the amazing soundslice is a gipsy guitar player. What a cool guy!
Great video. Was jamming along with both of you throughout the video. Had fun and learnt lots.
Brilliant episode. Such simple yet complex ideas. Will definitely listen to more Django. Thanks guys. Really enjoyed it. 👏👏👏
Nailed it! Django has been a fav of mine for decades.
what a breath of fresh air this video is!!! heading over to listen to his new album...great job on this video
I've always loved this style of playing, thanks Paul!
Fantastic video and perfectly crafted to engage viewers of all levels of ability. This inspired me to incorporate these concepts into my looping practice
Thank you Paul and Adrian for this Master Class!! 👌
Finally a video on an actual great. Thanks for doing this Paul it’s been a long time coming Django one of the best during his time he’s still great today
Super fun and interesting video. Thanks for doing such great work and sharing it with others!
One of my fav videos yet 👍. Loved the format and lesson style. Awesome work 👍
A wonderful lesson - thanks Paul and Adrian.
Such an incredibly USEFUL lesson!! Excellent buildup. Thank you
I saw this come up from you Paul and was immediately beyond excited. Thanks for the video I needed
Great guest, Fabulous style, thank you
LOVE THIS, learned more about la pompe in 5mins than I have in weeks. This is a video I'll be watching over and over. GREAT and entertaining tutorial.
Excellent video, two great guitarists showing us their skills, how envious I am. Really enjoyed the video, thanks.
Great video Paul, on a genre that has always interested me. I think we all learned a lot from Adrian
Thank you so much Paul for the excellent video! I follow you and I really appreciate the work you do and the opportunity you give us to understand and learn beautiful music! Happy new year with health and fun for similar jobs!
I have to say, you guys flowed. Talk about unity. No awkward stuff. Wow. Well done. Thank you.
Love that you took on Django's music Paul. And there's not a better guest you could have had than Adrian. He's a great ambassador for Manouche jazz.
I‘ve been following Adrian since his Honey Pie cover! Thank you both for this video. It will definitely help me
Such a great AbstractBaseClass to extend from, thanks Adrian, Paul and Django.
Best Django tutorial ever. Thank you soooooo much!
amazing style of teaching. great quality!
omfg, adrian holovaty. a technical and musical hero to me. awesome!!
This is definitely one of the best videos I've seen on Django's style and I'll be going over it several times over the holidays! What I would like to see is more of this, from these two musicians - but with more emphasis on the 'lower levels' - so that those of us who aren't so brilliant have better study materials.... I'm off to sharpen one of my wooden pics!
This video is a great intro to improvisation in general! Really nice and simple way to start expanding past pentatonic blues solo and playing some changes.
Thanks so much! That was so much fun and it sounds great on my nylon classical! Amazingly fun.
Joyous.
So much quality here! Many thanks !
How wonderful to see two professionals break this style into learnable chunks! Thank you so very much 😎🎸🪕
Thankyou SO much for the Django lesson. It demystifies him just a little bit. ❤
Superbe ! Wonderful video Paul & Adrian! I'm sure it will inspire many musicians to dig into Django Reinhardt's music 😃
I LOVE THIS!!! Very fresh, kind of feels a little nostalgic, but with its own peppiness!!!
Thank you that was wonderful. Gypsy jazz is one of my favourite styles and you gave us a great progressive insight into playing in the "manouche" style.
great stuff Paul & Paul !
Paul, best video of yours I've seen. I'd love to see this kind of video for other styles, even basic stuff like rock. Thanks
Such a fun video! Great energy from both of you
Amazing! ⭐ As always.
Wonderful to see Adrian in the wild!
More content like this please. What a useful and fun video. I got exposed to this style of playing from my first guitar teacher a long long time ago, but I didn't really appreciate Reinhardt until I was a lot older. Watching and figuring out how Adrian forms the lead phrases is really fun and has dragged me out of a deep guitar rut tonight.
Jazz chords will help you out of your rut
Very inspiring. Thanks for breaking this down so we can understand it. I love your videos.
