Man I can't describe how great these are. It's just so kind of you to transfer the knowledge you got from Barry (THAT YOU PAID FOR) - and put it here for free!
Once again I'll say that Barry's teachings give me buyer's remorse on music school. The fact that Barry's teachings are not more mainstream is wild given how powerful they are. Many thanks, Chris.
Of all the lessons on youtube...Your teachings are a gift Chris. Truly wonderfull- I'm actually making my own lines that sound like jazz. Thank you so much
Love the idea behind the series and combining the triad + pivot concepts in this video. I understand many individual ideas that you've shared in some of your videos, but bringing them together into a cohesive whole and making melodies with them is a whole other level. Thanks for making these!
I am improving Am6 diminished scale on D7. I am happy with that. I am more inclined to a different language then this. For me this is a pre-Barry Harris lesson.(before I knew about Barry Harris)
Glad you're staying well during this weird time. Hoping Dr Harris is too. One thing I noticed during this video is that you don't have reservations about calling something you came up with "pretty" or "beautiful". I feel like more players should feel free to talk like that. Too many people downplay what they're playing and it's like, to me, we ought to play what we like and like what we play! Of course we'll have off-days or we'll make mistakes but if we're honest about making mistakes we should be honest about playing well too. I feel like you're pretty good about that, and it is just one of those small things in addition to getting the wealth of knowledge that keeps me excited for future videos.
I probably picked that up from Barry. I feel like when he describes something he plays as being pretty, he's not giving himself credit, rather he's describing something that already exists in the universe that he's happened to stumble upon. All this stuff is there for us. It's up to us to find it. He's given a lot of us the map.
@@thingsivelearnedfrombarryh2616 you're a great teacher, is there any particular reason why you would choose to work on D7? Like due to a tune you are working on with that chord or is it just a means of any chord to use to work on phrasing? Just curious, as we all get caught up in wanting to do everything in 12 keys!
Ok, excellent Chris! Nice vid with pleasing background good lighting, clear instrument. Particularly appreciated is the juxtaposition of two concepts in one lesson; always inspiring when you "stumble" onto a pretty phrase. Thanks!
Thank you for these lessons. You’re giving such a wealth of information so coherently. Are you treating the line starting at 6:03 as starting on beat 2?
Hi Chris, Blues player trying to learn more about jazz. Really getting a lot out of your lessons. Gonna require lots of time in the woodshed to digest to get Barry Harris’ ideas. So very happy I found your UA-cam channel. Thank you for your time and knowledge. Wondering how it is you have a Wildwood Guitars t-shirt on in the video. One of the best guitar shops in northern Colorado. Thanks
Glad you're enjoying the channel. I actually bought a beautiful custom shop Strat with a Tone King Imperial amp from Wildwood Guitars. Very good experience. Great store. ua-cam.com/video/1ligO0u-iYs/v-deo.html
Yes Chris, just what I wanted (and needed)! I have one question though: Are you aiming for any specific notes to land on, or are you more kind of trying to surprise yourself and judge later if you like it or not?
Man, first of all thank you so much for this tons of informatiion, it’s priceless. I want to ask you about those little punctuation phrases that you made after the combinations of the triad and the pívot like you do in 7:34. I saw in books that there are some ways to finish the lines, but I don’t know if you are using that. And THANKS AGAIN
Thank you for this you've been a great teacher and continue to share great knowledge. I was wondering if you sing your lines before you play them? I always hear jazz pianists always making a humming noise, including barry, as if they are singing it in their head. I wonder if that is what it is and perhaps It leads to the help in creating even bigger lines.
Hey chris. I am rewatching your lines videos. I think I could maybe clarify something that helps me practice right now. The concept of putting together small ideas like chord up and going down chromatically is a different idea than practicing those two starting on EVERY scale note. I was listening to Koko by Charlie Parker and realised he must have practised more or less exactly what you show in this video to achieve the speed. Maybe you could make a video about combining lines from one chord to the next in the future. Because I noticed I am practicing my lines only on one scale not on songs somehow. Thanks so much for making these videos. ✌🏻 peace
Hey Chris, is there preference on putting the half step on the ‘and’ of the beat or does it not matter where the half step approach to the triads fall on the beat? Thanks!
Excellent, as always. Thanks a lot. I don't mean to take advantage of your generosity, but could you expand on "aligning" a phrase in the measure? In my view, playing the same notes over different beats of the measure produces very different sounds.
Does Barry ever think about making lines with the invertions of a single triad or arppegio? Thanks man for spreading Barry's knowledge. Greetings from Colombia.

This Chanel is a hideen gem for Jazz lovers ❤ probably my 2nd fav after Jens larsen!

You are a gifted teacher. Love these videos.
Thanks Matt. More to come.
Givin' away da barry harris lessons to us for free is the excellent thing in the world without any expectation. Gratitudes dude ❤
Thank you. Please share with your musician friends.
YES!!! Bring on the daily vids, homie. excellent
I hope you start doing some more often. Best on UA-cam brother.
*stops video right after 1:20 * Thanks for motivating me to get the fundamentals together.
Yeah man. Keep it up. Get it together before you move on.

You're welcome AJ. More to come.
This is starting to make sense! Making lines is "easy", but making them sound like jazz is not. Thank you!
These are lines you can use in any style of music. That's what I love about the method.
I am improving Am6 diminished scale on D7. I am happy with that. I am more inclined to a different language then this.
For me this is a pre-Barry Harris lesson.(before I knew about Barry Harris)

You’re on fire. Lotsa content lately. Thank you.
Thanks John. More to come.
excellent that is what i needed
More to come like this.

Thanks. I was plying pivots becasue I heard them on the records, but now I now how to methodically practice them.
Theses lessons are brilliant man. Thankyou

Thanks David. Looking forward to our next get together.
Yes, just a few lessons and I'm rethinking all kinds of ideas.
This is great! Thanks man!! Easy ideas that lead to expression. So cool.
Barry's method is fantastic
Very good lessons ❤🎉
Superb, thanks!
Really great! Thank you very much again!!
You're welcome.

Great lesson thanks
Thank you so much Chris! This is incredibly helpful and inspiring as well!
Thanks James

Awesome video and content, thanks for sharing! Best to you man!

It's the transition going beteween the pitvot and the 1/2 step triad that would also be interesting to talk about.
Much needed video! Thank you!
Yes Chris, just what I wanted (and needed)! I have one question though: Are you aiming for any specific notes to land on, or are you more kind of trying to surprise yourself and judge later if you like it or not?
The latter.
very helpful.
Is there a book or booklet with all the rules Barry Harris uses for soloing??? Many thanks!🎸🎸🎸
Yeah the videos come with a workbook that has a lot of the rules covered

This also about letting technique take to you sounds vs hearing it your head first and then playing it. I think both approaches go together.
Thank you that was helpful
More already?! Thanks so much!!!
You're welcome. More to come.

I do sometimes. Not often. Barry does it a lot.
awesome. with videos like this i get nearer to my goal: soloing in the damn bebop ideom. thank you!

Like this one?
Very interesting ideas,Thx man
Does Barry ever think about making lines with the invertions of a single triad or arppegio? Thanks man for spreading Barry's knowledge. Greetings from Colombia.
Yes he does.
Useful!
Yes.
I got this relatively well under my finger in all positions, it's the resolution and what comes afterward that is problematic for me.
How about on m7b5?
