Wrembel On by Stéphane Wrembel
SHAPES OF THINGS
Improvisation requires quick response time, and so it is very helpful to work on simple material to aid in the development of one’s instincts, such as songs with simple progressions. Once you understand how the melody fits the harmony of the chords properly, you can begin to create melodies around the harmony. Stéphane Wrembel demonstrates a series of exercises and chord shapes to prepare for improviation.

Many thanks for opening doors that the basics can provide us as guitar players
Very generous. Thank you for sharing your time and energy teaching. It means alot to us. Sometimes its just a kick in the ass from a musician whose you music you have loved and enjoyed.
Wow, wow, wow, the instrument changed in a second in the beginning !!!!
Probably they realised at some point that the first guitar was broken.
Amazing lesson
After breaking that down I have more to do than I could have hoped!
Merci Stéphane !
Excelente Gracias 😊
Merci , c’est le meilleur conseil!
Thank you
The left hand technique of playing the arpeggios without holding the chord shapes is interesting. I’d like to learn more about that. Thanks!
These videos Humble me and reminds me to keep it simple TRIADS .. TOMO Fujita says the same thing
no entendí el idioma pero lo musical lo comprendi perfecto. simple y sencillo muy bien
Thank you so much. You are one of the best guitarist in the world (a genius musician). Would you please teach us how to play at guitare the : "Jazz In Paris - Media Right Productions (No Copyright Music) ". It would be very nice of you and the whole world certainly will appreciate it.
Helpful content! But what happened to Josh K’s oud? XD
is that the baklava express dude?
So is this better than using the cage system?
It's pretty much the CAGED system using the E, D, A minor and C major shapes without the basses.
That was clear as mud. You started with half a bar chord on G (the G chord/shape I learned, as in the CAGED system is not a bar chord) and then made different shapes all over the neck... lost me. Why do you ignore the root note, am I just supposed to imagine it is there and I am hearing a G? Then you play a D chord and "throw in" a lower F# why? This might make sense to someone that already knows this stuff, but I've been playing 30 years and still have no clue how to even begin soloing... other than learning other people's solos and stealing patterns. I guess this video is for people that know some theory about how to build chords.
you should look up a lesson on basic chord inversions and it will clear up a lot of what he is talking about but yeah this is for sure more of an advanced topic
BS, your not paying attention, HE LEAVES OUT THE BOTTOM 2 STRINGS, thats for starters , so imagine those 2 strings fretted to see where your at, he does a basic shape of GM leaving out or not fretting the bottom (low) strings, understand? Good now he chooses a key Gm and chooses the second inversion of Gm, frets it and leaves out the bottom 2 strings, then does a third inversion or version of the GM chord leaving out the low 2 strings again, chords are in the key of GM , THEN he chooses the 7th chord of the GM key, CM and does the same concept for the 3 chord inversions SIMPLE. He chooses 3 inversions of one key (GM) then choose the 7th chord out of that Key (CM) and played three inversions. . He adds the f# to the D chord like Angus young does in AC/DC. (as D and F are in the key of Gm) this is about improvisation, he adds a sharp, he does the D chord to show that the SHAPE is the same for the 7th/6th major chords. HE ADDS THE D AND THE F BECAUSE THEY ARE IN THE GM SCALE. Then he demonstrates this harmony and mystery rhythm concept by fitting this or "improvising" in what ever way he chooses on the drone GM. To solo you need to accent the chord colors in the key of the song, find out what chords are in the song, then start on 3rds, 7ths or end and start on the key of the chord, this is a basic start. Or try what he is showing, make arpeggios from the chords he showed you , and start to improvise around those notes - Then he says variate your picking /accents to get a different tone. What so hard to understand about that?
@@trasimenoguitar This is a very useful concept so take the time to experiment with it, you can get all sorts of lead lines from the arpeggio concept he is talking about, plus its an interesting RHY concept exercise too, explore this one my friends, the more technical it is, just means the more time you have to take to explore, BUT its worth it.
sqlb3rn segfavlt i can see how it would be confusing if Improvising does not come natural.
1.He is only using the 4 strings to keep it simple. (More can be used but don’t yet)
2. He has a root note- the entire root chord sitting next to him! (That’s important to realize)
3. It is a simple 3 chord progression- watch how many times the guy sitting next to him strums 1 chord. I believe it’s 4 bars for 1 chord.
4. 3 choices up/down the neck Played for 1 bar = 4 bars
5. Root position- 2nd- 3rd position and back to root position... = 4bars
It’s a simple chord progression! He just gave us 3 options for each chord. Strum them, pluck them, upwards, downwards, using legato, arpeggios, slide into a note, slide out a note, pluck 1st bar strum second bar... be creative but recognize what you play!
Once you can hold a conversation while wandering through the chord options you know you can move on
Learn your triads and the inversions of them. Focus on the highest pitched strings if your looking to solo. Once you know the triads you’ll have many little areas you can use to solo over any chord that comes up. You can then connect them and crawl all over the fingerboard and follow the chord changes.
