    Hey Tomo, I would like for you to do a finger picking video. There are many videos on this subject but I would like your take on it because you're always honest and easy to understand. Thanks for your wisdom.

    Shell chords was my introduction/gateway to learning more chords and then incorporate the chords into melody and starting to play more and more like Joe Pass's style of full sounding, melodic solo guitar. It's perfect for bossa too

    • @TomoFujitaMusic
      @TomoFujitaMusic  8 месяцев назад +2

      Good job! Thank you for sharing! 3rd & 7th goes a 1/2 step down to 7th and 3rd... so cool! The guide tone! Yes! Joe Pass!

    this is one of those licks i learned by ear but never had a name for it. i love when there's that tension and release between that tritone in the chord and the 3rd.

    • @TomoFujitaMusic

      I'm selftaught with guitar and when i started playing, there was no interwebs to search info and i was shredding away 15 yrs before even considering a metronome or bother to learn simple sub divisions when playing. So yeah, it's a mess in a way😂, but i always had music playing in my head and it has just started to connect to the fretboard, boy is it exciting to play guitar. But you dont play with your fingers, you play with knowledge. Thanks for sharing yours, really really helps connect the dots. I'ma learn me some triads when i get back to my guitar🫵👌

    Hi Tomo...long time since a chat. I think besides music shapes... understanding, without looking.... to feel with each played note or chord, in a breath, heartbeat.... in spirit. Music can touch the spirit, soul and emotion. Any player, to develop.... must feel. The only way that I know that a player without understanding feels music is for their teacher to guide them to reflection... all song is from reflection. In 45 years, I am still a student... not of learning notes, but of feeling and creating... to share for a good cause. I mentioned this before.... John Lee Hooker... disconnect for an hour, listen to Thats Where Its At.... shut your phone and TV OFF. In quiet... listen. Life changing... for more than just the music. Get back with me after listening. You will thank me. Happy playing - Mark

    • @TomoFujitaMusic

  • @coloaten6682
    @coloaten6682 8 месяцев назад +1

    Great lesson, as always, thanks Tomo! I spent the last 3 years learning piano and read a lot of jazz harmony theory so my knowledge got quite good, relative to my jazz piano playing, which never got very good! Now I'm learning to play some guitar I'm so glad I learned a little of that theory. Connecting the chords in interesting ways, instead of vague, boring ones, seems to mean so much more to me on guitar. Maybe it's because of physically touching the strings myself and being able to see the movement (I'm a visual person). It's very timely for you to do this video, gives me plenty to practice over the weekend. 😃

    • @TomoFujitaMusic
      @TomoFujitaMusic  8 месяцев назад +1

      So happy to hear that! Thank you so much! Good job! Harmony, Ear Training both are so important. Most RUclips Social Media Guitar Players are playing by eyes! That's why they are stuck same place! These chords are so useful but you need to know which note is 3rd? 7th? Please enjoy!
