The best teacher always asks questions that their teachers cannot answer, because they are curious and self-motivated. It is because they think differently from many mediocre uncurious people, they know how to explain things in a detailed and clear way coz they know what makes them once confused when they learn the things they want. Being a great teacher is a talent. Anyway, such an insightful video, amazing!❤
Learning through history is definitely a useful approach. I did and do it also, by transcribing old recordings. It allows you to evaluate whether you find certain changes aesthetically good or not. It helps finding your own voice. Many young people who studied at a jazz school think that jazz is only ii-V-I, which is not correct.
Britney Spears utilizing the altered scale! Dang, I knew it! At least she didn’t utilize either the Super Locrian or diminished whole tone scales!
Love this kind of topic, Dennis! And I'm so glad that you named Oscar Alemán, i thought he was sadly forgotten by everyone
Nice, do more of these nerdy in depth music analysis videos, its really interesting 'cause you cant find this info anywhere online.
Dude I love this. The piles of 1930s sheet music on my piano finally seem worth it when I hear someone else talk about this.
I've had this conversation a lot with the arranger of a band I'm in. He's a horn player trying to do 1920's and 30's arrangements, and I'm like "this part isn't what guitar/banjo players would actually play though".
I've been trying to study Eddie Lang now for years and I believe that it is rare for him to play m7 and maj6 or maj7 when playing rhythm. When he does is often a voice leading thing. I know in blue room at one point he does play D Dmaj7 D6 over a bar or two (it's been a minute😅). In feelin my way I play gm7 on the Trio part but it's at a moment that is really hard to hear and I just do it cuz it's easy.
Same for the duets with McDonough and Kress. They use Maj7 in the slow trio part in stage fright, but it's part of a voice leading thing. They do use m7 a lot in in that tune though I think.
Kress is another anomoly because of his tuning though. He does seem to sometimes use more dom9 and dom13 chords even in rhythm playing because that tuning system lends itself to that, but I still feel in those Eddie Lang duets he's mostly playing major, minor, and dom7 with no extensions.
Anyhow, this rules, thanks for sharing!
I agree! If you work through the first Micky Baker guitar book you see him using maj7ths, maj6ths, min7ths and minor 6ths along with dom7flat (and sharp) 5s. Clearly the classic swing jazz prior to bebop. Also occasional use of min6shap5 and dom7sharp9. Really beautiful, melodious sounds designed to support the lead instrument, or vocal.
Love the video! Thanks for sharing 😎.
Great lesson. Thanks Denis!
Kanye is my favorite bebop artist
I think he threw that in just to see if we were listening. 🤣
maybe he meant Wes
Can't wait till Kanye drops his next bebop album, he's so talented on the soprano sax it's unbelievable
Yes but Britney took it to another level
24:40 Love this. I want to learn Japanese (too old though!) You are so on-target with the similarity between language and music. Thanks. It's all about the ear.
Well Said!
That was very insightful, Denis! And I especially liked your" keep peeling off the layers".
Q: I love how your Gypsy Jazz Multiac looks and sounds. Do you know if they are still available?
Thank you for all your hard work! 🙂
I think they should still be available! I find it to be a fairly versatile guitar if you can just ignore the “Gypsy Jazz” label. I was the one who initiated the project and gave them multiple ideas but they weren’t able to implement most of them for various reasons. If they had implemented my ideas, then it would be much closer to a GJ guitar
Thanks, @@DenisChangMusic 😊
Good video Thanks, but I need to disagree when you say that Parker didn´t use altered scale. I have many exemples where he did use the scale, maybe he was not thinking alt but definitely thinking tritone sub chord tones which are the same
That’s great! Actually, I want to be proven wrong! Please note that I do say “unambiguously altered scale”, there are certain sounds that are ambiguous and can pass as many things. If you can give me 5 clear examples of it, I would be very very happy to take back what I said
Ha! What do you think of the Minor Swing variation where it goes into the Autumn Leaves chords from the second D minor?
I don’t really think anything in particular, it’s a way to make it sound a bit more modern, but what I don’t like is when rhythm players try to use it interchangeably during a performance. Doing that forces a soloist who is attentive to go in certain directions.
@@DenisChangMusic yeah, can be a fun variation if you've gotten bored of Minor Swing but you do have to adjust your soloing to it. Probably not everyone's cup of tea all the time tho
Hey this sounds awesome, great feel improvising and feel. Check out my lates original gypsy jazz tune..Swingin Cat. .🎸👏👏👏🩷
Perhaps George Van Eps? You’ve got me curious now
I think George was a bit of an “outlier” guitarist, but lots to learn from him for sure!
Hey Denis, do you enjoy old school black metal (Mayhem
, Burzum, Darkthrone, etc…) ?? 🤔
Dark Funeral - shadows over transylvania
I’m not very knowledgeable about metal subgenres. Is Satyricon black metal? They’re the only band I really know because the former guitar player is also an incredible Gypsy Jazz guitarist.
Is it weird that I DON'T want to sound like Django or Charlie Christian, but like J.S. Bach or Chopin except with swing.
You can sound however you want! Bach and Chopin are actually a huge influence on me as well!
Go for it! 😊
Got a "like" for the intro. Modern GJ sounds bebopish anyway. Note: "One of the only..." phrase makes no sense.. "One of the few" or "The only". "Only" means one. Thanks (pedantic language person). p.s. nice haircut
