Proper Gypsy Jazz Chords to "la mer"
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- I am explaining idiomatic chord voicings here, that are used in the style of gypsy jazz or jazz Manouche.
Of course these chords exist in other styles, too, yet - some voicings are very related to certain styles, same as the way you play progressions, be it as a soloist or rhythm guitarist.

These are played and recorded live by Stefan Rey on bass and me on rhythm guitar.
So you are playing with a top rhythm section, for I'm backing up some of the best players on scene like Joscho Stephan, Sandro Roy, Wawau Adler and more.
The playalongs offer a realistic amount of choruses and a little arrangement, which makes them even suitable, playing live gigs alone, if you are playing without a band.

Thanks Sven. I knew this song would be a deep well of turnarounds and chord changes, not to mention your classic substitutions and knowledge of the style. I'm also super impressed with your ability to talk over the changes. It shows just how deep your technique and practice goes. I think I'm going to need a t-shirt that says "I learned rhythm from Sven!" :)
Oh look I have a new backing track too. I’ve already got the melody so I played along.
Thanks for uploading. This song is fantastic.
Hey man,
Here are some real good backingtracks,
Vol 6 is including “la mer”
Merry Christmas!🎁🎄payhip.com/gypsyjazzplayalongs
Super video, extremely helpful. Thank you very much!
Left my job a week ago and maybe wouldn't have come across this song to learn otherwise. Serendipity perhaps. Been playing guitar for a long time but really having to work for this one. I am excited to learn all these new chord voicing, like waking up out of a musical slumber. I can't wait to play this for my Dad when I head home soon. He is a huge Grapelli fa and is going to love it! Thank you!
This is great. I’ve been listening to versions of La Mer for the last couple of days and now this!😁🎉
I started playing classical guitar when I was young. Moving to jazz and learning to use my thumb was one of the most freeing things. From ¹6 onwards, I've used my thumb more often than not; it provides so much versatility
Excellent ! clear instructions and great teaching skills and trciks... i loved it! Ich bedanke mich Sven
Wow 2 days ago I decided to put improv 1 on hold and learn la mer by total coincidence. This will be super useful.
Excellent! All the way through. And the explanation on why to use the cradle grip over the bar chord grip is the best I have heard or read. Thanks.
Been playing Flamenco the last six months, this will be a nice break. I love this song and also Minor Swing, dang, I love almost all of Django‘s work! Thanks for your great work!
Yo, Sven.!! Much respect and thanks to you for creating these 'proper chords' lessons.. Hours of fun and practice right here..
Beautiful. I've been playing passably most of my life. This gave me such a lift to find a genre I'd never tried.
My classical guitar too wide necked so I'm off to borrow a steel string.
Googling up what on earth that guitar is you're playing... absolutely stunning sound. Hope it's not too expensive ❤❤
Thank you very much Sven for all these sharing. You’re a man of heart. Happy New Year
Thanks, happy new year to you, it's still January, so it's OK saying it I hope 😅
Love your stuff, Sven. Went to a gypsy jazz jam the other day and held my own, with big thanks to your lessons. Recommended them to a friend who's just starting out on gypsy jazz too!
Good to hear, thank you for recommending!
Another one of my favourites. Goes way back to the 80's when I got Djangology 49 - one of the first CD's I ever bought. Always found it had a mesmerising quality to it, so I can't wait to get started learning it. Thanks again Sven 👍🏻
I have a love/ hate relationship with your videos Sven - I love your playing and teaching - I hate that I'm going to have pt spend more and more time trying to play along - and get my thumb over the top for that horrible F chord! - but lovely playing (again)
Thank you, Sven.
A joy to watch a master of his craft. Thanks very much.
Great job Sven really helpful as always. You might want to work on your whistle before the next video 😅😅 have a great 2022.
Thanks for uploading this!. This is such a cool song and I'll enjoy learning it.
Great lesson. Thank you!!
Stunning !
Super helpful lesson man!
Grande Sven come sempre! Un brano fantastico La mer ♥️
Großartig, Sven! Ich lerne jedes Mal viel dazu. Weiter so!
...und singen kann er auch noch schön, :-) echt klasse deine videos, nach troubed bolero versuch ich mich mal an la mer und spende gleich mal via paypal als keine Geste, merci Sven!
Danke dir!😊
Perfektes Timing - wenn ich jetzt anfange zu üben, schaffe ich "La mer" vielleicht gerade noch rechtzeitig zu Muttertag ;-))
Spaß beiseite: Wieder eine phantastische Lektion, bei der du mal eben, ganz elegant und fast nebenbei, wichtige Theoriegrundlagen vermittelt hast.
Genau der richtige Einstieg in ein neues Jahr - herzlichen Dank dafür und meine besten Wünsche für 2022!
splendid
Excellent 👌
Top Class
Amazing!!
Thank you, you are such a great teacher.
nice one merci monsieur
Thanks for these lessons. I didn't have much jazz around growing up.
Sven you are the very best. These videos are so enjoyable and inspirational. I hope to contact you soon so I can learn more about your cds and maybe some music.
This song is so a great song, e.g. song by Bobby Darin. The chord version of you let me dream, this song creates a special feeling of freedom and relaxation.
Danke Sven! Genau danach suche schon lange! ❤️ Liebe Grüße aus Wien
I love sven's versao, respect maestro 🥹
Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere waitin' for me
My lover stands on golden sands
And watches the ships that go sailin'.
Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere watchin' for me
If I could fly like birds on high
Then straight to her arms I'd go sailin'.
It's far beyond the stars
It's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
My heart will lead me there soon.
We'll meet beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
And never again I'll go sailin'.
I know beyond a doubt
My heart will lead me there soon
We'll meet ... I know we'll meet ... beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before.
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
And never again I'll go sailin'.
No more sailin' ...
So long sailin' ...
Bye, bye sailin'...
Move on out, captain ...
So long, ensign ...
I find this song stirs a real sense of nostalgia in me.. absolutely lovely. Do you sell chord charts of the songs in your lessons
Sven absolutely love your gypsy jazz chords for this piece. Do you have the arrangement available for purchase?
@@FRANCOISLEBLOND this will be available very soon! It’s the next on my list to do and I will link it here and on all social media platforms!
What brand of guitar is he playing? Sounds brilliant by the way, such a happy uplifting feel.
It’s a Jürgen Volkert guitar! Great guitars even John Petrucci has one, no joke!
Fantastisches voicing😉darauf nen cafe au lait 👍😉
You are the best thankyou
Can you please do 'just a gigolo'? And also, do you have any ideas for generating jazz manouche style versions of other tunes?
Let’s see! For ideas how to transfer a song into Gypsy Jazz, I recommend attending one of my group lessons, information is on my website:

Kind regards and keep it up, Sven✌️
Hi Sven,
You're an excellent teacher, and your videos are treasures for any guitarist interested in Gypsy Jazz !
All your guitars are excellent (I saw an Hofner in an other video which was so beautiful and sounded so well).
Thank you again for finding the time to teach less skilled guitarists !
Does you guitar maker have a online site to check his work, I'm curious...
Waiting for your latest video ! (maybe one on "My Serenade" one of my favorite's Django tune).
Great lesson, thanks a lot💖💖💖, please tell me which strings you are using and the size of the strings, the sound is very nice
Argentine Strings 010
klasse!!!
THIS IS GOLD
Будьздоров!
Спасибо
Great sound what is the microphone
I like it
By the way, great sofa :)
Where to put the second like?❤
How about the song’’Try to Remember’’ and Moon River?
So how did you tune your guitar? Standard? Very fast explanation! Thank you. I guess you don’t want everyone to learn. Too bad.
Lovely playing and a beautiful guitar - what model is it?
HELLO SUPER GOOD I SUBSCRIBED TO YOUR CHANNEL
I WOULD LIKE TO ASK, HOW CAN YOU PLAY J'aime Paris au mois de Mai zaz song?
What type of guitar are you using. How is it set up? What gage of strings are you using? Would it be possible for you to show some sort of diagram for the chords you are playing on each song?
Hey Jazz players, could you please have a pity on us? We all eternal beginners.
Chords are boring. Why don't you pull of the 6 E string ,🤔 there are enough E in standard tuning😂.
With 5 strings chords could be much easier.
Just for laugh 😂 Excellent video.
I liked your performance with J Stephan
Guys, these are the correct jazz chords
Hey Sven,
What's a good song to play at my first serious open mic night...it's just me playing...
Great arrangement. Do you have the arrangement in chart form anywhere? I'm having trouble following the 20 minute video; by the end, i've forgotten the earlier parts of the arrangement. I would be happy to pay for the privilege.
You can PayPal me and leave me an email! Sven.jungbeck9@gmail.com
🔝
not even ai could map out the exact chord progression for this video its so jumbled up , sor sven
This man is German 🇩🇪 as fuck.
What's that behind the bridge Sven, is it a pickup ?
No it's actually TESA to mute some unwanted noises 😅
Ah, a bit of damping 👍🏻
never explained the b chord?

@@SvenJungbeck Thank you very much your quick response and good material suggestion
Love that point: "See what the great players do, as they know everything but the terms". Also, people will possibly find this version inspiring. He looks how i feel when I finally get it right: ruclips.net/video/0Iykn4mBT9U/видео.html
HA HA HA!
Sound is very low
Thankyou. Please respect the original lyric in French which does not translate to Beyond the sea. That is an American pop song lyric totally different in meaning to the French.
