- 🎵Simple Summertime Jazz Guitar Soloing Lesson! Today's lesson covers how to approach soloing over the changes to Gerswin's timeless jazz standard: 'Summertime'. Soloing over 'Summertime' doesn't have to be complicated. I show you simple steps to starting to improvise with a few basic scales and chord tones. Summertime is a good standard to practice improvising over as it is often played as a ballad, meaning you have more time to think!
In my last lesson I covered how to play the chords in 3 different ways, if you missed that you can find that jazz guitar lesson here: • 🔆Summertime Jazz Stand...
In today's lesson I cover:
🔴One scale you can use to solo with
🔴How to practice that scale and find key chord tones within it
🔴Soloing with the scale, but hitting chord tones
🔴Chromatic approach notes
🔴Ignoring non essential chords when soloing

Excellent lesson. It's alright learning all the scales , modes and chords but it's knowing how to apply them to a song whilst soloing etc. You have shown the way to do it in a very basic and easy way to follow, something to build on. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
FANTASTIC lesson, Andy, thanks so much for the hard work -- really helps so much.
Thanks for the comment, glad you found the lesson helpful :)
Very nice lesson. I liked how you built on the materials from the other lesson, as well. Good format.
Thanks for the feedback Joe 👍
Well done. That was very useful. Regards
Again a very well thought out lesson. I found this interesting. Well done.
Thanks for watching and commenting Paul 👍
Buen trabajo, una lección muy interesante. Thanks Andy.
Thank you
Very useful, Thanks!
Thank you Gilles.
Nice lesson again Andy. Always enjoy your diversity of ideas on soloing. I’ve been sidetracked from working on my jazz studies lately. Lots of family things including my youngest son getting married and his bombshell news of them moving to Brighton England! I’ll share more via email. 😊
That sounds exciting Bill! Moving to England. I've not been to Brighton, but I hear it's a fantastic place to live!
Thanks!
Thank you - that's much appreciated 🙏
Thank you. Great lesson and cool shirt. Moto City.
Thanks Roy! :)
Good job teaching a tough subject!
Thank you 🙏
That Tele looks so cool
It sure is! Great to play.
I can only play bass but I struggle to know the chord sequences on which to base my bass.
When I listen to music my general hearing and musically ear is not good enough to know when the chords change or what they changed to so I use various internet options including videos for guitarists. When I look at lyrics and chords it is not always obvious when the chord changes.
Summertime seems to have so many variations but everything I listen to helps in a general way to broaden my knowledge and experience.
I annoyed your video and the final thing to say is thank you for not saying hey you guys 😁
Hi Peter, I completely get what you are saying. It's difficult to know what are the changes to a song, so many possibilities. In terms of working on your ear to hear chords...do you know your arpeggios? I'd also say, chord typically change on beat 1 or 3. You also want to listen for types of chord eg. minor vs major or listen out for chord structures eg 251. I'm sure you already know a lot of this, just a few thoughts...
Great lesson for soloing over a track or with another player. However I also am trying to go it alone by incorporating solo ideas while sketching the song's harmonic structure with occasional chords. Any suggestions on how to go about this would be helpful.
Hi Roger, for me doing this kind of approach it's just important to keep the rhythm going. Your lines need to be strong rhythmically and you need to keep good track of the beat.
A harmonic minor - is it the same as Am spanish scale or A Phrygian scale?
Hi - it's not the same as those.
Phrygian scale has a b2 and b7.
Re the spanish scale - I think I know that as Phrygian dominant.
How can I turn any jazz song into just 3 arpeggios like that with any jazz song?
I think learning about chords relate to one another can really help with that. Eg a minor 7b5 chord is the same notes as a minor 6 chord
