    During my travels in Europe, I played with gypsy guitarists and learned from them; one of the most important things I learned was that MUSIC IS SIMPLE!
    There are a few chords, three shapes to remember, and that’s all! Well, it’s not all, but all the rest is the interesting stuff - embellishments, trills, sound, feel, rhythm… MUSIC!!

    This is most definitely a ‘lightbulb’ video… it’s given me a lot of ideas that might just make some sense!

    The cool about Yaakov's lessons is that he teaches concept and I apply this concept to blues and it works so well.
    "Give a man a fish and he will eat for one day, teach him how to fish and he will eat for a life time".
    Great lessons from a good teacher, thank you Yaakov.

    I've been playing guitar for 15 years, and honestly seeing this one lesson about five years back completely changed the way I played guitar! And for the better, I might add. Thank you so much.

    I had the same poblems when learning improv, it always seemed to me a focus on technical playing, but even my teachers didn’t sound musical. Simple is better in many ways. Also his first lesson was right hand picking, which is very important and usually not taught at all. His lessons are aewsome!

    Really mindblowing. The longer I play the more I realize how easy (and paradoxically difficult) it is to keep it simple.

    One day i clicked on a similar link and i saw a comment saying how the full course about triads helped so much. I never promote anyone on RUclips but i'd like to make it also public : the magic of triads is AMAZING!
    It doesn't come cheap but if, like me, you are tired of the goddam pentatonic/minor/major/all kinds of shapes improv and your stuck in a rut for years trying to sound more melodic & musical, his course is worth the money.
    I bought many methods in the past and i never really got there, Yaakov made it so simple and so effective it's just impressive.
    I'm no longer using scales ( well...not as much) and i can finally start to sound like i hear in my head. THANK YOU YAAKOV!

    One of the best guitar teachers on RUclips. And I have watched many, many teachers.

  • @nellheuer

    Thanks, the lesson was helpful for me! I do know triads for years now, but I felt stuck with all the functions of optional tones (#9,11,13 etc.), scales and theory. It always seemed overly intellectual, like a computer, to learn all the theory-stuff. But only playing by heart doesn´t work at a certain point anymore. The Magic of Traids you showed, seems like something in between these both ways to play guitar. Good Work!

    The triads course is amazing to learn how to play melodically. Add in the Arpeggios course to learn a few more “stretched out” shapes to add in some flash here and there and you’ve got everything you need to solo like a pro. Yaakov is a great great teacher.

    You can extend chromatic approach to whole notes and thirds etc, and you can do it with bends and double stops as well. I call this painting around the chords, adding color and texture.

    I find it funny how I was learning scales all different arrpegios licks runs etc. but in the end all I needed was a remainder to keep it simple and have fun, because that's what gypsy jazz is about. Thank you very much good man for this lesson! God bless you. :D

    @GlennMichaelThompson 7 лет назад +2

    Nice to see such a straightforward lesson. As you mention, it's not just applicable to Gypsy Jazz, you can hear these approach tones of 1/2 step below and a diatonic step above being used in swing, bebop, and really it can be used in almost any setting. I really appreciate your teaching style... fantastic! :0)

  • @helmet212
    @helmet212 6 лет назад +1

    Just can't thank you enough... this is exactly the way I've learnt guitar and look forward to keep learning. I'm always interested in understanding the fundamentals rather than learning famous licks and end up like every other guitarist around the corner. Thank you so much. Now I can build upon alot of what I got from you. Many thanks again. And you play wonderful!

  • @rifosi
    @rifosi 7 лет назад

    Great tip, I got your point. I just started to play Gypsy Jazz and found out that there's a lot of improvisation over chords, although of course players also use scales. Anyway, memorizing these inversions certainly is a good way to jump to improvisation. I just figured out an exercise for me, that is playing all three inversions and moving around using circle of fifths, than moving back in fourths.
    Thanks for sharing.

    00:21 refreshing how even yaakov doesn't 'instantly' hit the chord correctly first time. not to take anything away from him...just encouraging that despite our efforts to perceive others as better (or even perfect!) that even the greats are in the same boat as us sometimes!
