Ha!

Hello Dr. Fujita,
I have been self-taught for 7 years now and never really learned my fundamental scales (all I played was minor pentatonic blues!). I recently have been getting into jazz and gypsy jazz and I've been watching your videos recently. I just wanted to say thank you for putting out these videos! They inspire many people like myself to improve.
-Sean

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks for watching! You should get my AYGP dvd so that you can work on your important foundation part. You're welcome!

[@beisu8081]

Does anyone have any tips on learning jazz songs that have a lot of chords.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Learn jazz standards slowly!

[@danielalex8426]

Excellent

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you!

[@RafaelSaluotto]

Awesome, Dr. Fujita!
Congrats and cheers from Brasil!

[@maximusrusso8758]

I love this guys faces

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks!

[@henriquealejandro7247]

at first I was like is there is a bass backing track? but no, its just tomo absolutely ripping those walking basslines

[@henriquealejandro7247]

and excuse me, my boy Pritesh seems to rip them too!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks so much!!

[@neroya7163]

Same I thought there was a bass

[@Javicho050394]

That sounds really good. I’m a self-taught guitar player but I really need to learn everything about jazz. I love jazz and I was learning some scales and modes but I need more and more. I already read a comment and you talked about a dvd. Can I get some info about that?
Thanks in advance
-Javier

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

I am trying to learn this tune and Pritesh's fingerings seem effortless. Any pointers?

[@ArifinStratocaster]

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks!

[@carlodevivomusicontent2138]

wow

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks!

[@operationblackout1095]

I feel ur student gave an old approach in improvising and you sounded more modern with the improv... dang was tht all vertical improv tho or how did you approach tht.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks!

[@paulwatts27]

hi sir! i wanted to join in berklee can i talk to u privately?? if possible?

[@itaymalik4964]

How do I improvise over this tune? ( Scales, modes and everything) and not sound boring? I sound really boring playing only with the modes.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Try learn chord changes more with R37, triads! Melody! melody! melody!

[@SdrumingG]

Hello, Tommo! Can you say what kind of scale have you use in this video? Or what kind you use on a regular basis to plar jazz?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

...following each chords.... if you don't know the chord changes...then you don't know how to play good solo..

[@gdanskJam]

Hm... but the chords change every milisecond.. when I think about second chord you are on 10th... I would propably not learn this in 300 years :(
Great jam, I enjoyed listening :) :)

[@joshuaterrill3089]

Tomo! Do you have a chart for the chords you're playing? Or can you recommend one?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

You can study with someone about this style, then that will teach you many things... be careful around internet many bad information too!

[@eduardocruces3030]

do you teach online lessons too? how much the session would cost?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

You mean Skype lesson (private lessons) ... I will do less and less. You can reach me via Instagram DM

[@robertmcintosh1821]

How do you get ideas to flow like this ????????

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Practice foundation.

[@manocchs9369]

Damn. Goldberg can not only stop a puck, but play some tasty jazz licks too.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks!

[@zenhippie2011]

Unfortunately, the teacher is more outdated in his phrasing.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks so much!
