What a video! Not only the content but the beautiful interaction in the group. This also shows how much a competent teacher can add on top of the "main content that could be read" as so many of my students ask for now. This video really shows the meaning of face to face learning.
Just started the video but I’m dying over the guitarist getting told to turn up his volume it’s true we never get told we’re too quite unless ur me and get stuck on comping volume because I forgot to turn it up for the solo section😭
@@TonyfromBham Hey Man, don’t forget these are young students. We get the best we can out of them. This student was not my best guitarist, but was a member of the class when we did this class demonstration. So maybe you can consider the principles we were trying to teach, without being over critical! Dig?
Absolutely! It’s quite shameful on the instructor/program for such a bull-headed approach. At his age, he knows how the guitar industry dominated many kids bedroom with rock and roll and popular music for the past 5 decades. Most guitar players don’t read music nor do they even know the notes on their instrument akin to others. While they ought to learn, it’s not practical for putting the guitarist in this spot for the ensemble, especially a kid, and it’s very clearly wasting everyone’s time, and it’s not the guitarists fault- he was bred in a culture that doesn’t emphasize notation reading on his instrument. And with the availability of software and even AI tools, there is no excuse for not being able to provide tabular notation for the guitarist. It takes more work on the instructor/program, but that’s THEIR job.

I feel you green shirt person 😂Very helpful vid tho
Excellent demonstration! Really shows how different instruments can collide with each other.
Thank you I will try to apply this to my guitar playing
Great video, quarter notes guitar comping is the easy way, I always end up using it, mostly in Big Band situations
Thanks, I’ve just joined a big band guitar seat and this is very handy.
Excellent!
Piano players believe they should be the 'active comper' 99.9% of the time.
Sounds like a plan!😊
Facts
@@Heckspawn Curious as to what you meant.
Thank you, that is a wonderful resource!
'Kojonudo, Ray! Saludos desde Madrid.
Great vid!!
Very interesting and usefull
Very nice guy!
Of course the guitar player struggles reading music 😂 I’m not alone 😂
This saying goes in our big bsnd as well 😂
In my experience, comping with the piano player is to lay back. See what he's doing. Find a pocket to fit into and follow it.
stifler on the bass?

Trainwreck
In term of rhythm, time, harmony, hipness, and attitude, his mess is depressingly
non-jazz.

@@TonyfromBham You might as well know also, that he is blind…
He should know better and provide the guitarist with a tabs arrangement. Most young guitarists don’t learn to read music well.
we'll maybe we should. Though the tabs would make it so much easier...
