Complimenti davvero, la più chiara efficace lezione di chitarra manouche, finalmente comincio a tirare fuori dalla mia chitarra suoni e ritmi vicini al gypsy jazz, Grazie, anzi DANKE Sandra
What a great guitar teacher. Arguably the best on the internet. Technique broken down to the subtle but inescapable essentials. A million thumbs up and I will happily pay for the extras. You are the real deal. Only wish I had met you long ago. Respect.
My start into gypsy jazz almost got this down. You explain this lovely .Had the pleasure of an evening with Lulu Rheinhard on his laten swing project. Greetings from Scotland xx
After years playing the guitar I thought "time for gipsy jazz"! Started looking it up and i really thought I would never make it ! Then I "met" Sandra... Now I can play backing track, solo, and vocals to all of me !! Thank you so much for all the great work !
Thank you so much for these lessons! You are an incredibly good teacher. You make it so easy to understand. Your teaching style and presentation make it so easy to learn. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you,
Fantastic patient, clear explanation and demo of gypsy jazz techniques for a beginner at it like me! The muting and scratching is much harder than it looks
Thank you . Best teacher I've seen of gypsy jazz you slow it down for people like me most enjoyable to play .I've got a rather high percent Roma in my blood xx
These chord shapes and changes open up so much for me. I've played guitar for a long time but only recently started really learning functional harmony, learned seventh and extended chords and inversions and some substitutions and still couldn't come up with many progressions with good voice leading that weren't awkward to play. Some of these feel almost feel like cheating. Like jazz people just decided we're gonna call Bdim7 an E7 now (I do understand why it works though). Right from the descending line in the intro that does *not* look like you're moving in fifths, but harmonically it does, it kinda blew my mind a bit.
I echo Davey Leslie's comments exactly - so glad I have found you now though !!! - Gypsy jazz is actually an underappreciated pinnacle style of jazz guitar in my opinion - the 'pump' is crucial and you've explained it so well ..... you are a treasure trove of expert, clear, uncomplicated , generous and super relaxed tuition.
Thanks, Sandra. This video is great! I've been trying to learn this song for a long time and your video is the best (thanks for including the ascending chords etc). Appreciate the time taken! Cheers!
So glad to have found this channel. It was a kind of New Year resolution idea to expand my horizons by learning a couple of jazz standards and these lessons are just what I need, so clear and well explained. Thank you.
Just memorised the melody by heart, now im playing it again and again until i feel sleepy. It's 3.20 am and i cant sleep. Im just gonna enjoy the music and learn the rhythm when i woke up. I love and enjoy when you teach. You're a great Teacher and a Musician.
Hello, my insomnian friend. Suposedly we memorize things better when we're nearly asleep (bc the brain is in a very calm alpha state). Hope it works out for you 😊
Another one of my all time favorites! Thank you, lovely Sandra. Your lessons are so richly informative. One of the best, if not the best, of the online guitar resources. Cheers!
This must be Steve Vai’s little alien sister. I’m working on some of her other videos to broaden my knowledge of chords. Her hands are golden. Thanks for such good instructional videos. Hello from South Texas, mate.
Damn! I've been trying to get 'La Pompe' right for several years now... and I've just realised that I was actually getting the rhythm right when picking up the speed in 'Dark Eyes'.... Now I've got to slow everything down to practice it until it's become second nature!
This is outstanding Sandra! Besides being a great song, I love the little subtle details you show on this comping pattern that make all the difference in the world. I was close to having this comping down but this instruction will really help me get it right. Thanks so much!
Another way to play la pompe is downstrokes only, accentuating 2 and 4 with a mix of arm and wrist. The key is to press down the chord just before you hit the strings and then strum and release at the same time (only on 2 and 4, 1 and 3 is played in the "normal" way). The (optional) upstroke is played as an upstroke on the EAD (or just 2 or 1 of them). The C6 can also be played as C9, but with the pointy covering the D and G string, and the ring finger covers H and E - it gives a VERY gypsyjazz quality to it. Well.. there's no right or wrong way to do anything, these techniques was just what my teacher kinda told me. Thanks for some very good inspirational chords, a nice and warm energy and thanks for spreading the vybes of Django!
That's a very interesting technique, and I'm gonna test it myself as soon as I get home. I've never heard of it, but it sounds intriguing. Since so many student have difficulties with that short upstroke, it would be quite helpful to have an alternative technique at hand. As for the chords. Yes there are so many and I guess, I know them all, lol. I just wanted to make this video as simple as possible. Thanks for your input, Rolf! ❤
@@GuitarversumSandraSherman I recommend watching the left hand on seasoned players like Sven Jungbeck. It jumps in a funny way :-) The term "trampoline effect" is what Django used to describe the right hand movement (as far as I know)
MY GOD my coffee tastes better this morning!!!!!!!!! This is one I've wanted to learn for ages! I like that you went into detail with the La Pompe teaching. Good going! Time to buy tabs and backing tracks. I've got the lead you made. Now, with this, I'm set. Thanks from this old 66-year old soul!
Another great lesson. Thanks a lot. You are the best guitar teacher I have ever had! I hope you are still enjoying what you do (I know this is a year old by now)., Take care, Nathan
Thanks Sandra Too focused on the lesson to get the name right. For shame!!! Thanks again. I’m an good intermediate player practicing to get to the next level. Your lessons are perfect for me. Hitting the tip jar
Hi Sandra, I just purchased your Full Package of All of Me Rhythm Guitar Lesson. I was able to open the tracks and tab except for a file with ".gp" extension. Why is that? Also I purchased your solo file but would not open due to app not found. Do I need Guitar pro 7 to open the tab? Thanks.
Great news, I would love to see a lesson on Straighten Up and Fly Right a la Nat King Cole version. This would be a really excellent lesson showing the use of rhythm changes. Hope you can do this in the near future.

Hi Sandra, another excellent lesson. I am trying to learn jazz by starting with the standards and this is one of my favourite tunes. I am particularly focusing on improving my knowledge of jazz chords. In your arrangement I notice that some of the "shapes" are the same for different chords types for example the E7 (7th fret root on 5th string), C diminished (8th fret) and D minor 6 (10th fret) have the same "shape". I know chord can have different voicings or omit some notes but is a challange for me at this stage because I generalIy rely on identifying them by their relative "shape". For example if you move the E7 shape from the 7th fret to the 8 fret I would call this a F7 and a G7 when moving this shape to the 10th fret all having the root on the 5th string. Not complaining just sharing my thoughts. I will persevere I promise. By the way I have learnt all of lead for this tune from your great UA-cam accompanying lesson. Thank you for the hard work you put into your lessons.
Hi Fred, The chord name depends on the general root. That's not always the latest tone in the guitar chord, but what the bass plays. Then everything has to be "recalculated" from there.
Will be watching again and again (with lots of pausing!). It’s above my level but this sort of lesson makes me feel like it is possible to jump into jazz guitar. Your lessons are awesome! Wirklich ausgezeichnet!
HI SANDRA, JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL I HAD SELMAR MCCAFFERY ( spelling?) is that what you have ? I PLAYED OLD STANDARDS WITH A FIDDLE PLAYER, (GRAPELLI & REINHARDT STYLE) 20 YRS. AGO. FORGOT A LOT OF IT , BUT NOW WATCHING YOU PLAY BRINGS BACK THE BUG AGAIN. I WILL CHECK ON YOU FROM NOW ON. THANK YOU
@@GuitarversumSandraSherman it belonged to my freind who played the fiddle, although i played it most the time. wish i had it again. i enjoy your instructional videos. we made 14 tracks of old standards and after watching you play, i can remember how much i forgot. i can play 5 of them yet. and if i keep jammin it might come back to me. i have a gibson L50 and another archtop with no name. i think it could be a Kay or Silvertone' they are both very old but definetly keepers. i will continue to watch your channel. i played a lot of cowboy chords , but with the two beat rythm. i like your style of teaching you are very good at that, for sure. so long for now. i may keep in touch.
@@GuitarversumSandraSherman Wooow! At first for answer. That's great. I am talking with my favorite guitar player. OMG. Thank you! But right now I am in a work. But sooner I will submit my question to you. Thank you very very much.
I am so confused. 🤔 But I know that I must see the video again. I was trying to play at ukulele, so I don't have all the notes and complete chords. But without all the "ornamentos" (tension notes - sorry) I played and I got some results. I'll try on my guitar (violão) and then transpose to ukulele. Thanks, Sandrrrrra.
Hello Sandra, very interesting lesson (as many other you publish). Can you tell me more about the guitar you are using ? Do you recommend to buy such guitar ? Can it be used for other things besides gipsy jazz. I have a Gibson ES 335 , that's I use for everything including this lesson. The sound is obviously different, but not that bad. Do you think an acoustic folk guitar, ie: a Martin a Taylor, can actually approximate better that sound?
My guitar is a Gypsyguitar. It's made solely for that style, but can be used as a regular steel string acoustic guitar to. Although it sounds really different. Lots of mids, a bit quacky for an acoustic. It's from a German luthier, who specialized in these guitars. He made it for me. Look into Gitane guitars. Also check out djangobooks. Com, they sell everything Gyosyjazz. You can use a steelstring or an archtop, yes, but it won't sound like it.
Mind you the come with a super long scale length. I tried to talk Jürgen into making me a shorter scale, but he convinced me that this would cause a lot of strung buzz. You pay around 3000 w/o tax. There's a 20% VAT in Germany for private buyers. Maybe you can get it back from the customs.
No, that's called the 1st inversuon. A Drop 3 voicing is a closed voicing with the 3rd not from top being dropoed an octave. Usually that's the voicings that have a muted string between the bass and the next note (like all the E-String voicings)
Great video thanks. Can someone help please. I want to buy a gypsy jazz guitar. Which brand should I get? I am in lockdown so need one delivered and I can’t go to a shop. I don’t want to spend loads of money but neither do I want one that is not very good please help.

But without all the "ornamentos" (tension notes - sorry) I played and I got some results.
I'll try on my guitar (violão) and then transpose to ukulele.
Thanks, Sandrrrrra.
Hey, glad you could adapt the cluster to ukulele. Would love to hear that!
Hello Sandra, great video, this is one of my favorite songs, got already the tab and the backing tracks, time to practice ;) All the best.
Awesome! You ne very motivated 😊
Maestra, le mando un cariñoso saludo, deseandole muchos éxitos este año.
Hello Sandra, very interesting lesson (as many other you publish).
Can you tell me more about the guitar you are using ? Do you recommend to buy such guitar ? Can it be used for other things besides gipsy jazz. I have a Gibson ES 335 , that's I use for everything including this lesson. The sound is obviously different, but not that bad. Do you think an acoustic folk guitar, ie: a Martin a Taylor, can actually approximate better that sound?
Do you think an archtop guitar could be a good substitute, more flexible also for other genres ?
My guitar is a Gypsyguitar. It's made solely for that style, but can be used as a regular steel string acoustic guitar to. Although it sounds really different. Lots of mids, a bit quacky for an acoustic. It's from a German luthier, who specialized in these guitars. He made it for me. Look into Gitane guitars. Also check out djangobooks. Com, they sell everything Gyosyjazz. You can use a steelstring or an archtop, yes, but it won't sound like it.
Great lesson Sandra - really like the tag at the end. ; = )
Thank you, Nelson!
Hi Guitarversum
What the dimensions and materials used in making your Volkert gypsy jazz guitar, and what can I expect to pay?
Mind you the come with a super long scale length. I tried to talk Jürgen into making me a shorter scale, but he convinced me that this would cause a lot of strung buzz.
You pay around 3000 w/o tax. There's a 20% VAT in Germany for private buyers. Maybe you can get it back from the customs.
Great lessons- Thank you!
How cool! Have been looking for this fireplace.
so gut!
Hey, vielen Dank! Freu mich, dass du Spass damit hast. Keep swingin' 🧡
Greetings from USA.
When you drop the 3ed note in a chord to the bass is that known as a " Drop 3 voicing" ?
Like E7 with B in bass
No, that's called the 1st inversuon. A Drop 3 voicing is a closed voicing with the 3rd not from top being dropoed an octave. Usually that's the voicings that have a muted string between the bass and the next note (like all the E-String voicings)
@@GuitarversumSandraSherman okay I will make a study of that thanks

Do you explain inversions in your 2 5 1 course ?
Great video thanks. Can someone help please. I want to buy a gypsy jazz guitar. Which brand should I get? I am in lockdown so need one delivered and I can’t go to a shop. I don’t want to spend loads of money but neither do I want one that is not very good please help.
