Grazie, ti seguo dall'Italia: sei un ottimo insegnante. Saluti Antonio.
This is great, my only sugestion is showing how to play this tip n real music, example Afro Blue or any other tune with similar rhythm.
Always good stuff! Thanks again.
Thanks for watching!
So, did Adam show you my crazy poly rhythm sandwich email? I must say, that email is a work of ART ;) Poly rhythms aren't just a parlor trick. After getting deeper into Barry Harris and Steve Coleman's pedagogy, I've realized that poly rhythms are one of the key ingredients to swinging HARD. Barry doubles the 3:2 to get 6:4. He emphasizes that polyrhythm on ballads, but I think it applies to all tempos--including up tempo. Awesome content as usual, Mr. DeBoo!
Here is my PART of my grandiose email:
I think that the challenge is practicing hearing as many of these subdivisions and poly-rhythms at the same time as possible. It isn't as much, play eighth notes and think eighth notes. Rather, it's like playing 8th notes while hearing quarter note triplets. Or playing 5 against 4... Or 3 against 4. I never got that far into Mike Longo's stuff and my DVD lessons don't work anymore... Steve Coleman seems to talk about the same on his m-base website, if I've understood him correctly. Playing odd meters against "common time" isn't advanced post bop stuff--that's the making of bebop and most likely what came before as well.
Maybe it's more like eating a sandwich. You get to know the taste of the fillings, the fixings, and the bread separately in your early days. My daughter just eats salami on one slice of bread. But If you always pick it apart your whole life, you aren't eating correctly. Learn the polyrhythm separate at first, but ya gotta bite into all those polyrhythms and polymeters simultaneously like a circle of drums. Drum-wich? Don't miss out on that umami swing? Feel the mixture and cross current of rhythm.
You can hear how musicians like Wes Montgomery, Oscar Peterson, Cannonball Adderley, and Bobby Timmons--to name a few--create forward momentum by using polyrhythms to underpin their time feel when playing 4/4. They all utilize this 6 beats against 4. If you separate the measure into ONE two THREE four and count ONE-2-3-FOUR-5-6, you start to hear that lilt that makes Wes, Oscar, and Cannonball groove. 6:4 is the polyrhythm, I think... And then Wes plays 3/4 by suggesting a 4/4 lilt. ONE and two AND three and.
So, what other polyrhythms can help with the groove? Mike Longo alluded to Dizzy's 7:4 djembe beat, but I never got around to that.
Pickinstone! I hadn't seen the email, but I sure thought of you as I was doing this session due to our previous YT comments on rhythm. OS is working on a Rhythm Course currently with contributions from a lot of incredible artists. Going to be great! Stay tuned and thanks as always! -Bob
@@bobdeboo8549 I hope you are on that course. Great stuff, as usual!
@@pickinstone Thanks! There's some great musicians getting involved, and I'm hoping to get a shot as well! Thanks as always and keep swinging! -Bob
From Portugal, thanks!
Thank you Valdemir!
from France thank you
Thank you Olivier!
From Maryland thanks
thanks for watching Jesse
Thank you so much , this is wonderful !
Could you please follow up with a tutorial on 5 over4, 4 over 5 and 6 over 4 , 4 over 6. Thanks again !
Or, save it for the Rhythm Anthology course. This is the exact type of content I hope to see when the course is revealed. The next chapter is poly meter, which is different than poly rhythm--but equally important to that umami sandwich of swing.
Thanks for watching! Definitely concepts to incorporate further down the road, and hope to cover them sometime soon! Thanks -Bob
Just study south-Indian carnatic music and their konnakol. ua-cam.com/video/h6VS7KlZeNQ/v-deo.html He's my Guru in Bengaluru, B.C. Manjunath. He travels all around the world giving workshops and I think this is the best rhythm system for musicians of any style to learn.
@@daveking-sandbox9263 yep, studying carnatic rhythm systems is great and will definitely impart different rhythmic perspective
One question that is preventing me form the full practice is the left hand moves; I am not able to see how you do shift positions back and forth to make the C Major scale more than 1 octaaf, up to de d and back => Could you please show some of that? Or, in which of ur courses you do elaborate on that "more than 1 octaaf scales? Thanks!
Thanks Elvis for watching and for the comment here! To get up to the 'D' (9th in C Major scale) Id recommend the following fingering: C(2), D(0), E(1), F(1), G(0), A(1), B(4), {shift} C(1), D(4)...then the same back down. Does that help?
Thanks for this lesson! Also: I love the sound of this metronome. May I ask what metronome you are using?
Thanks from Virginia,
David
Hi David. Thanks for watching and for the comment! I use 'drum genius' and it's a "snap" sound. Love the app, use it all the time. Peace, Bob
@@bobdeboo8549 Thank you, Bob! :)
When Charles Mingus was asked if he practiced with a metronome he said: "I would rather practice with a leaky faucet." So much for metronomes! A metronome is sort of like training wheels that children use on their bicycles. Once you get your time together you rarely need one, unless you want to know exactly what a certain BPM value sounds like.
@@daveking-sandbox9263 for anything fast or tricky that you need to scale up the speed a metronome is invaluable - it shows up any fuzziness immediately, especially if you’re dealing with awkward subdivisions or polyrhythms. It’s easy to get lax and fudge stuff sometimes.
Metronome doesn’t lie, same reason I use drones when practicing scales - your intonation is found out immediately.
