I am 61 years old and have been playing guitar for 50 years. My dad was a classical guitarist, and got me started. I had LOTS of sessions like this with my dad so I can REALLY appreciate how important this is to Ellen's development. You are a GREAT dad!
This is so beautiful. Disrgard the guitar, the singing, the music and you still have an amazing demonstration of how to be a father. You two bring tears to this 54 year old's eyes. Please sir, guard this little girl's endeavors.
Hovak is hands down a great father and teacher. Nothing but positive encouragement for Ellen. My two favorite things he says in this video: "Play what sounds good to YOUR ears" and "You killed it!" He laughed at that moment with the same joy that his talented daughter does.
I had a non musical father and a slightly musical mother, but if they were even slightly like Hovak I would be a much better greater musician today. However in a much different way (non musically) my dad was just like this. All of us kids are very good at the things we do. And it's because a man, just like Hovak, was a teacher, a father, a mentor, a very good leader. This is why Ellen loves to play and will be far greater than anyone twice, three times her age. Leadership is the key!!!
Wow, not many parents get to bond with their children on this level while teaching them skills that will last a lifetime. These videos are poetry in motion.
This far beyond a bass improvising lesson. This is a masterclass by Hovak on how to be a parent, teacher, and mentor. This child has the natural talent, instinct, and passion to play the bass. But it will be because of her loving father, patiently guiding and training her, that she will eventually bloom into the best musician she can be.
I love watching Ellen grow and learn. Thanks for letting all of us who had music in us and never learned to get it out share this wonderful adventure with her. What a joy she is!
Can we talk about the fact that I was apart of this lesson with Ellen!!?? I learned so much and was improvising along with her singing.. this is amazing and just unlocked so much for me. This little girl is gonna be a phenom in a Lil bit!.
To see a father so involved in his child's life is so heart warming. Ellen is so lucky to have a father like this, and he in turn was gifted with such a nice kid
This is the improvisation lesson I never had and wish I'd had it decades ago. I just took my bass from the wall, and sang, and played - what a joy! Thanks for sharing this lesson, and this precious moment with Ellen. Truly wonderful to see. And yes, she definitely killed it!
All right , yeah ! I'm only about 10 minutes into this , and I'm watching a beautiful flower , opening in the sun ,absolutely magical. but i'm gonna be a tough guy and not cry .
I m french , I m a father, I play bass guitar and this Channel CHANGE MY LIFE ! With your method and your " father's kindness " she will be the greatest artist I ll ever heard. Don t change anything !!!🙏🌞🙏
Wow... She is so amazing... I feel as if i just watched her skill level increase by 2yrs just in this one video.... So proud of her!! Great Job, Dad!!!!
Amazing amount of knowledge Hovak has and is able to teach to Ellen. Then in less than 30 minutes Ellen is headed toward mastering this concept. Can't wait to see more of her improvisation journey.
This is possibly the greatest lesson on improvisation i have ever seen in my life, as soon as she started singing i got it,, and i sat down with my bass and cranked something out and that has never happened before in 15 years of playing covers. Thanks!
The utter connection between Hovak & Ellen is soooooo great to see and seeing it settle in. Where Hovak’s a blessing for Ellen to have as a musical teaching father, Ellen is a gem to all of us in how she learns and how she get’s exited about new learned stuff. So incredibly valuable! And very cute to watch also. Very nice exercise this and she picked it up very fast. Probably one of the most important lessons in playing: play by ear-training. Everyone should learn this lesson over and over again. Hovak you’re a master-teacher!
did not expect this video to show me what it means to be a human. deep down we are always children, trying to learn, even as adults. but as adults we have the opportunity to pass on that wisdom like the father does here. beautiful experience!
Music is an art. It’s something inside you. All a good teacher does is helps to find it and let it out. I’m no artist but I can certainly appreciate it.😀
I think my favorite part of watching you guys is how much she looks for your approval. That says alot about you as a father, teacher and mentor. Thanks for sharing 👍.
Hey Ellen, just wanted to thank u for being u, not that u had a choice. I'll be 61 this Christmas, the 29th Dec. I started playing my first instrument about 9 months ago, an alto sax, which I LOVE so much. Obviously not gonna tour with.....whoever, but being able to read music/play music has been a dream of mine since I was a kid.....but I had zero self discipline/it was way too hard/I was too lazy. So 45 years later I finally am sticking to it. My mom also loves sax and unbeknownst to her I had learned, kinda, "Summertime" and played that for her on her birthday this year. So I just wanted to thank u for the inspiration and joy u share with all of us. Besides being amazingly talented the joy and happiness that pours from your little soul is just so beautiful. Keep on rocking' my little friend! U are truly an inspiration to us all! ~ Best, Todd~ PS....u are also so much fun to watch! PPS.....your dad is super awesome too, wish we all had a dad like yours! Hugs
What a precious little angel u have there bossman, she’s a huge blessing isn’t she, mines 14 now miss those younger years lol your a awesome guy god bless you both
Ellen does scat!! THIS is the perfect way to introduce improvisation. My guitar teacher would tell me to do this. Sing it first, then try to play it. Also, then try to sing and mimic an instrument. Keep rockin'!
Congratulations, Hovak! Great dad, great teacher, you are creating and molding a little and beautiful tiny monster. Ellen, in some point of your improvisation I discovered myself with a great-great emotion in my heart and soul. Thaks, and please, don't stop similing.
This is SO good! Not only is it a demonstration of a perfect introduction to the concept of improvisation, it is a demonstration of the perfect loving, encouraging dad-daughter relationship and my face is hurting from smiling so much!
And you are an incredible actor Mr. Bacon! I thought you were great in Friday The 13th and Footloose and Quicksilver and Flatliners! At this point in your life, you've got it made! ~Dutch
Just to say how amazing Ellen is and what a talented young lady she is. The Love between a father and daughter is' too much for words. She is on the right track for a wonderful future.
Improvisation -- a major step in the progression of any aspiring young musician. This excites me more than perhaps any of Ellen's other videos. Like a flower, she blooms -- musically.
I don't know if this will help. But I used to try and mimic the sounds of different instruments and then play what I envisioned their solos to sound like with my voice. It not only helped with playing, but made me a much better singer, helped with my timing, and pitch. The progression after that went to playing and singing the solos at the same time. Not everyone can do that. It is a great skill to have though. I started teaching myself to do this when I was around Ellen's age. I had no one to teach me. It just came to me one day. It became an invaluable skill set to teach others with. From that point forward I could practice in my head without the instrument being around. You are a great teacher Horvath. I wish I had someone like you when I was coming up. You go Ellen!
Awesome job hovak, she did a deadly job feeling it. Singing is the key to improvising and also she did better with her eyes closed. When she's not looking for validation she does better by not seeing you. Notice her shoulder was lifting when it felt good to her. Once she knocked off her sight she felt it more. Less conscious of your presence. She did awesome the more she does this the more she'll connect to the instrument
I simply love you both ! So glad you are teaching her about improvising. She is such a great musician and she already has improvising skills.....Just adore her and her playing :-) She is blessed to have a dad like you 🙂
Hovak you are a master instructor. You truly understand Ellen and how to best build her talent. The method of singing first not only built up her thought skills, but by having her sing louder built her self esteem and courage. Particularly in a public setting. This is something that is missing in sooo many young girls lives. Playing their instrument is only part of the experience. Having the confidence to play what they feel is as important as knowing how to play.
In reality what he's teaching is how to connect the mind to the fingers, one thing is to play bass knowing the scales and notes, another is to know exactly which note your mind wants. I know this is how it works because I can't read music, I play completely by ear. Improvisation is just that, play what your mind comes up with.
Hovak, you are a brilliant teacher. I learned more about improvisation from this half hour than a year of music school. Ellen picks up on the whole concept very readily, which is truly fascinating to watch. Just amazing.
@@simduino True, unfortunately. I attended the U.S. Naval School of Music and learned a library full of theory, and graduated being only a slightly better musician.
@@imanoldgeek I play bass for 40 years now, can't read 3 notes in a row, don't have a clue about scales, but, when I used to play bass in a band, one of our members had a master degree in music, could read and write anything but couldn't play 2 notes without a sheet of music. He asked how I could play so well and I told him I had music memory, could play nearly anything just by listening. I felt kind of sorry for him, so many years of studying and he felt bad as a failed musician. Hovak teaches just that, how to connect the mind to the notes, great work.
I love these "lessons" videos because it shows the process. I like how he says "nothing is wrong, just be free". I struggle with improvising, so this was very helpful to me. Thank you for sharing the insight!
Her grasp of music concept and construction is absolutely off the charts and it is because of the born genetic talent inside her and the incredible guidance from pop!! What a joy to watch her play and progress! We have a whole group of us here at work who are Ellen fans!! 😊
Love the way Ellen can't keep her fingers off the frets and strings. She's just living to learn and play and has the best of possible guides in her Dad.
So many lessons being taught here - so many stories being told. Hovak has so many more students other than his daughter learning something beautiful right now. The world is a better place with both of you in it! Thank you for such a delightful distraction. 😋
I've never been able to "improvise"... I've been a bass players for years now... I've been learning by myself and the internet. I just want to say: this is the first time I actually feel like I can improvise. Thank you so much for this video. Such a good vibe and feeling.
I am a Samoan watching from Fiji. I really like the way you guys practice. At the same time I have learned from you guys because I love to play bass too. You are such a great dad brother. May God bless you guys.❤❤❤
This is the best Improvisation lesson I've ever heard; Harmonizing the improv in your mind and THEN translating it to the fret board and not the other way around. Brilliant sir
Great improv lesson. The next important step to recognize is that the mind has done the training well, and now the mind needs to be put in the background, to let the Heart take the lead in a Direct Link to the vocals and fingers. Intuition is led from the heart.
I hope you continue to encourage Ellen to sing she has the potential to be a fantastic vocalist I can tell I listen to her singing The Beatles song Penny Lane Sears hauntingly good and it gets stuck in, Ellen keep singing
Ellen never stop learning. The sky is the limit. You are doing great. Papa good job preserving the fine arts by teaching Ellen, with the love you do it.
One of my favorite channels to see when updated videos are available. I have 3 daughters of my own, and I just love my precious moments with them. I wish I could have captured all of them on video, but most of them are locked away in memories only. Seeing you get these once in a lifetime moments with Ellen is so fun and amazing to watch. Thanks for sharing them. Seeing you two interact is entertaining, but it's also just really neat to watch. We are watching her become a skilled player and learn the craft in real-time. So so cool. Love it!

This is what I call COMMITMENT
Please sir can you buy a bass guitar for me?
@@oghalivictor8533surely you can't be serious?..buy your own..first find a job..save..buy whatever you want..it's the American way of life..rock on..
This young girl has a father that is a good man. She'll be ok.
This is so beautiful. Disrgard the guitar, the singing, the music and you still have an amazing demonstration of how to be a father. You two bring tears to this 54 year old's eyes. Please sir, guard this little girl's endeavors.
THIS. ☝️
@@wendyreeves1379 yep
AMEN!
Same here. Rarely seen good connection between father and daughter. A joy to see.
Excellent well said
3:02 "... because improvising isn't just in music, right now we're improvising talking." Absolutely spot on, what an amazing association.
She must've listened to Victor Wooten before this lesson :)
Hovak is hands down a great father and teacher. Nothing but positive encouragement for Ellen. My two favorite things he says in this video: "Play what sounds good to YOUR ears" and "You killed it!" He laughed at that moment with the same joy that his talented daughter does.

Oh, and he has a great amount of patience.
Excellent Father, but I believe She answered "improvising" perfectly.
🙏
Such an excellent teacher.
Wow, not many parents get to bond with their children on this level while teaching them skills that will last a lifetime. These videos are poetry in motion.
Bless her little heart , I hope she lives forever 😊
DO IT Ellen! You got this baby. You're awesome! You're so lucky to have a dad that teaches you what you need to know.

Indeed. And it is looking like that is going to be an extremely good musician. Like crazy good. Not just "good for a girl".
Watching a master class in bass improvisation is an amazing experience. Best teacher ever.
I love watching Ellen grow and learn. Thanks for letting all of us who had music in us and never learned to get it out share this wonderful adventure with her. What a joy she is!
Dad, you are AWESOME! But she is AMAZING!!! She inspires me to practice more.
Can we talk about the fact that I was apart of this lesson with Ellen!!?? I learned so much and was improvising along with her singing.. this is amazing and just unlocked so much for me. This little girl is gonna be a phenom in a Lil bit!.
I love how his eyes lit up when you likened improvising as talking. In the vast sea of RUclips, this channel is truly special.
To see a father so involved in his child's life is so heart warming. Ellen is so lucky to have a father like this, and he in turn was gifted with such a nice kid
I absolutely love her enthusiasm and discipline and dedication to learning and playing ..

Same thinking. I’m 64 and play some guitar but I should have appreciate a teacher as him!
All right , yeah ! I'm only about 10 minutes into this , and I'm watching a
beautiful flower , opening in the sun ,absolutely magical.
but i'm gonna be a tough guy and not cry .
Just amazing how she absorbs Hovack's teachings! Your sessions are such a joy to watch!
Me too. I thought the analogy between music and speech was utterly brilliant!
They definitely work well together.
Excellent teaching 🎸🎸🎸🎸
Yes she seems to just absorb information
Díky!
I m french , I m a father, I play bass guitar and this Channel CHANGE MY LIFE ! With your method and your " father's kindness " she will be the greatest artist I ll ever heard. Don t change anything !!!🙏🌞🙏
Wow... She is so amazing... I feel as if i just watched her skill level increase by 2yrs just in this one video.... So proud of her!! Great Job, Dad!!!!
I don't think there was anyone who watched this and didn't cheer her on, He's a great teacher and what a great team they are. Absolutely amazing.
Hopefully she never loses her sense of fun, Joy and silliness.
Amazing amount of knowledge Hovak has and is able to teach to Ellen. Then in less than 30 minutes Ellen is headed toward mastering this concept. Can't wait to see more of her improvisation journey.
They are just adorable together. I am getting addicted to these videos.
Her comment about improvising while talking not only surprised her dad, it was a brilliant (if unexpected) insight. ❤

OMG! This brought tears to my eyes. I have three daughters, one of which is very good singer. I shared this with her.
And one lesson back.
Impro-vi-sation.
Superb, on so many levels, this video. God bless.
This was a Masterclass of "How to deliver a class". Wonderful. And what an amazing student (and best teacher)!!!
Improvising is the art of play, creation.. exploration 🤘😖🤘♥️🇦🇺
55 years young and I love this. Made me pick up the bass and play and sing, myself. Ellen is fantastic. Brilliant lesson Hovak 😊
Congratulations, Hovak! Great dad, great teacher, you are creating and molding a little and beautiful tiny monster.
Ellen, in some point of your improvisation I discovered myself with a great-great emotion in my heart and soul. Thaks, and please, don't stop similing.
I can't handle the cuteness. The bond between these two is amazing. Ellen is going to really blossom into a top bass player in short time!
This is SO good! Not only is it a demonstration of a perfect introduction to the concept of improvisation, it is a demonstration of the perfect loving, encouraging dad-daughter relationship and my face is hurting from smiling so much!
Ellen, 1 day you will look back on this and smile. Spending time with your Dad and him taking the time with you will mean so much to you.
You are a talented teacher, Hovak! What a great lesson on improvisation.
And you are an incredible actor Mr. Bacon! I thought you were great in Friday The 13th and Footloose and Quicksilver and Flatliners! At this point in your life, you've got it made!
~Dutch
This is what I call, great parenting. Love and patience.
You don't realize how good that was when you started with the singing improv. Amazing! A natural for sure.
Am so happy to watch this🔥❤️🔥
I got the word. "Don't sing what you play"
"Play what you sing"
Just to say how amazing Ellen is and what a talented young lady she is. The Love between a father and daughter is' too much for words. She is on the right track for a wonderful future.
I hope you wake up every morning and thank God for the gift you two have. Not just music.

It’s so nice to see a father and daughter share the same passion

Ellen has a good ear for music and once she gets going there will be no stopping her,
The last part was great! When Ellen closed her eyes it just fit all together. I didn't want the session to finish as I was enjoying so much ❤❤❤
This child is really brilliant and dad is making a fantastic job. Whatever she does in her life, she's gonna nail it.

Music school doesn't teach you love and feel for music. Just look at Chris Squier (RIP) to see how he loved to play bass.

Her grasp of music concept and construction is absolutely off the charts and it is because of the born genetic talent inside her and the incredible guidance from pop!!
What a joy to watch her play and progress!

Coolest dad ever! Love to see the way they interact!
The loving father daughter relationship touches my heart. thank you.

Esse é o caminho da música! Sensacional familia!!!!
This is so cool!! Your father is a great teacher and you are really good student Ellen
I love the way you teach Ellen, and how talented she is.
13:00 such a virtuoso she can't limit herself to just three notes :) I love it -- what a pure melodic talent
Hello thanks for watching you won 🎁 a gift massage me now to get
OH MY GOSH! This little lady has got natural soul within her. Awesome!
Very smart young lady BRAVO! it's not really easy to improvise for her age she seems to be outstanding little girl
Awesome talented kid with guidance from a true professional. Ellen is destined to be an accomplished bass player and artist.
This is the best Improvisation lesson I've ever heard; Harmonizing the improv in your mind and THEN translating it to the fret board and not the other way around. Brilliant sir

Applause from argentina!!!!!
Ellen never stop learning. The sky is the limit. You are doing great. Papa good job preserving the fine arts by teaching Ellen, with the love you do it.
That was Great. I'd never thought of 'singing' over a backing track to create a lead or improvising. It seems so obvious once you are told. Thanks

improvising is when there is no plan but the only plan is what you have in your soul, in your heart and of course your inspiration.
