  • 🎵As jazz guitarists it's easy to focus on harmonic material - what arpeggio or scale to use, but if this isn't paired with phrasing then it doesn't all come together to form a cohesive solo. In today's lesson I cover how Caravan is a perfect jazz standard to work on bringing things together. With 2 chords in the A section, it gives your head a break from constant chord changes. I demonstrate:
    🔴 How to use call and response
    ⚫️ How repetition can help lead one line into another
    🔴 Playing with space
    ⚫️ Building and resolving tension
    00:00 Intro
    00:29 Caravan A a good testing ground
    01:04 C7 into Fm
    01:37 What makes a good phrase?
    02:36 Call and response based idea
    03:03 Build up tension
    03:40 Leave space
    04:12 Wrap up and thoughts on working on your phrasing.

    Phrasing is a great topic! That’s the next step I want to go! I’m still struggling to learn the triads arpeggios..

      @@jazzguitarwithandy still don’t know whether to go 75th Anniversary Tele, Ultra Tele, or FCS Tele. I’m thinking the FCS so I don’t get paranoid about scratches etc. Have you ever had a thick 50’s neck Tele and if so, how did you get on with it?

    Some people play this tune and it has a happy feel. For me it should sound like a descent into madness.

      I couldn't agree more! It should sound edgy and like you say, about to descend into madness.
