    A lot of people ask me what notes should be used for ending licks in order to have good phrasing. I have not covered this topic very extensively so this lesson is a more in-depth look at phrasing in Box 1. Future lessons will explore this same topic in the other boxes.

    Thanks Anthony, for all your work. Great camera angle and explaining each note in relation to the chord progression. You're a great Texas Blues player and a great teacher (rare combination), your calm demeanor is a big plus.

  • @Texasbluesalley
    @Texasbluesalley  13 лет назад +6

    @Fjord76 Phrasing is at least a two part thing. Part of it is making your licks fit the chord progression, or at least not contradict the chord progression in a way that sounds awful. However, the other side of phrasing is the grouping of licks so that the licks themselves form more complete thoughts, like a well constructed paragraph. In this lesson I'm only talking about the first side of phrasing.

  • @MrMadsound
    @MrMadsound 11 лет назад

    Scale degrees (position in a scale) and intervals (number of tones and semitones removed from each other) are the relative positions notes have to each other musically, ,. Phrasing is the RYTHMIC AND EMOTIVE PLACEMENT of those notes AS WELL AS their musical relationships in terms of interval and scale degree. Pauses or RESTS as well as varying note lengths, changes in tempo and dynamic intensity are all part of phrasing.

  • @srvgravesdime
    @srvgravesdime 13 лет назад

    @Fjord76 That is a very very good point. But I can appreciate that he explains this concept, which is very important for phrasing and making your phrasing more poignant, before just teaching you phrases that you don't understand how to use. This is the heart of good phrasing. which is all that people really need. You don't need to teach phrases when people learn how to effectively phrase for themselves. Just my two cents. Kudos to both of you

  • @kisventak
    @kisventak 10 лет назад +3

    It's a great begginer lesson. But have in mind he is playing a shuffle in F# not in G. The tunning half-step down allows you to easily bend and have a different tone (because of the tension) .

    research, try alnico 2 pups. i use a swampash strat its make it a little bit more twangy, also the new ibanez ta15 is quite SRV sounding.
    try rolling off the gain on amp and vol on the guitar and blend in a peddle and try mixing between the 3.
    if that fails shoot yourself in the foot, then you are blues for 6 months solid.

  • @MadaRook
    @MadaRook 11 лет назад

    what it comes down to is the rhythm. The beat is the main thing you hear. The rhythm is always the same in a relative way. The cool thing about a beat is that the notes are interchangeable. If you play a beat in a certain way on your instrument. and you want add a sound in and you do not adjust the way you play that beat to accommodate that new sound.
    So guys like BB King. They understand that sound doesn't make a song, the beat and/or rhythm does.

    hey guys, whoever is having the half step problem, all u have to do is play 1 key down then Anthony is so you can match his sound, i don't see why this is such a problem for u guys, and if hes playing in open strings then just copy what is doing in your tuning its gonna sound the same just in different key,)) hope this helps

    • @ChickenThug55
      @ChickenThug55 5 лет назад +1

      Playing 1 key down makes it confusing with learning the fret visually. Best thing is to either tune to the key on video or download the lesson and use a program to change the video to standard key.

    • @skinnykarlos710
      @skinnykarlos710 5 лет назад +3

      I think sometimes we forget how difficult it 'can' be in the learning stages. Don't dismiss someone else's confusion simply because you've got yourself past that. I've got two music degrees (one in Classical guitar and one in Jazz) and I could possibly make you feel pretty silly or ignorant. That is not what music is about. Be nice and HELP others don't mock or dismiss them and their difficulties. It's a slow road as I recall.

    It doesn't really change that much. Basically where ever you see him play, just drop back one extra fret if you want to sound exactly like him. I just play the licks in the same spot he uses, because they still work the exact same way, it doesn't matter that he is a 1/2 down. That is the good apart about scales, you can really play the same licks from any key scale and any other key. Rock On!

    Great lesson! Thank you. Just one question. Why is your guitar tuned a half step down? The cam angle is great but we beginners (but gear heads) are not sure if we want to tune down our guitars when we have it set up for standard tuning. I know tuning in Eb may be a preference but for doing lessons, I think tuning in standard might be more helpful so we see how the dots correlate with your fingers. :)
