    Great video! The single string thing is a Mick Goodrick method. An awesome book for anybody.

      I didn't know he talks about that but it makes sense. I have seen Abercrombie talk about it and ha was a student of Goodrick I think?

      Is it the Mandela Effect or what? I seem to remember that Unisitar thing coming from Goodrick too? He did say that though, right?

    Always good stuff Mikko, and well explained! As food for thought for those who may criticize the methods and approaches you present (whether they are indeed Chet Baker’s cousin or not…), is to simply look at all these tips as parts of the available toolbox. Hey, give it a try! I think the more angles you can look at your musicianship from, the more possibilities you have to learn and grow a more profound understanding of it. I know some stuff I stepped on early on, understood, but didn’t pay too much attention to, but then later on (years…) it popped in to my mind again for some reason (a tune I needed to learn, something I heard someone play etc) and then I picked it up again and perhaps studied it in great detail. There’s just so many interesting angulations to learning music, and in particular improvisation, so any help, advice or new perspective should be more than welcome. I’m sure the great masters like Coltrane, Scofield, Miles, you name them, would pick up carefully anything that could help them bring out their art better. Short story long!

    I can’t help but hear the metronome as =160 🤣
    With regards to exercises like this, doing it away from the guitar, especially imagining a piano is the most important thing for me. I do it while I’m falling asleep; I play the guitar and the piano in my imagination. Nothing fancy just exercises like this. It’s transformative. I wake up a little better.

      Yes practicing away from the instrument and on a different instrument are both good ideas 😎👍

    I have a request for a lesson about phrasing. Can you demo how you approach phrasing at different tempos.. for example : how do you think about starting your phrases in slow, medium,fast and very fast tempos. I've heard you use the expression "shape your lines". it would be great if you could expand on that ...also I really like the videos ex. "Someday My Prince Will Come" where you just play! 🕶

    Soundzzzzzz Beautiful! Great teacher and a nice guy. Main instrument is Bass but now working on guitar. I’m working on jazz chords but I feel like I’m all over the place. Not sure where to start In an orderly fashion? S.O.S

    This scalar approach through changes is well presented by Berklee prof Saunders
    Bruce Saunders: Melodic Improvising for Guitar. Developing Motivic Ideas Through Chord Changes. Mel Bay 2005.
    Starts simple (two random major scales staying on one position) then quickly goes into tunes like Ask me Now, Well you Needn't, Giant Steps, But not for You etc.
    Although not explicitly mentioned, you can (and should) use it with the "one string" approach that Mikko explained in this video.

    Hi, thank you very much, great exercises!
    The moving cluster chord scale is really a thing I am aiming for, but for some reason it takes me an eternity.. Do you work on these the same way like on one string? That means that you inspect note by note on each separate string by note name? Wow.. I'll have to buy a new processor😂

    • @Mikkokosmos
      @Mikkokosmos  4 роки тому +1

      Yes but after a while you start to see that chord shape patterns and then it gets easier :D

    Lydian Aug? But how do you not “trick yourself “ into just thinking of it as two alternating minMaj7 chords?

    • @Mikkokosmos
      @Mikkokosmos  4 роки тому +1

      Good question. But don"t you mean three minor/maj7 chords? It's easy to shift a Maj7#5 chord into that since the sounds are similar. We have to spend a lot of time with the lydian augmented sound to get used to it 😎👍

      Mikko Hilden wasn’t there also an atlternating triad pair within each key centre? On the thirds? I’ll listen again. Amazing content, Mikk. I turned my sax buddy onto you, he loves this shit.

    Open position struggle is real. Pat Martino recommends mastery of it. So...
