Thank you so much for checking out the video! Are there any particular lines / licks / language that you love to play? Let me know you found this helpful!
This is one of the best Jazz Phrases Video I could find up to now. Great Job! It inspires me to practice these phrases slowly, in time and one by one. Even if it feels at the beginning as if your brain explodes, you get a little bit better each time. If you have more of the short ones I would watch another video like this. Thanks a lot!
Really appreciated the lesson on language/licks. If you have any more language you can share it would be so helpful. There are are plenty of channels and videos focusing on scales, chords, theory, etc,. but few quality videos related to licks. Thanks !!!
Amazing instruction. Extremely helpful. Thank you for your generosity! The licks I play are things that I have adopted over a lifetime of playing, but these are definitely things to add to what I already do. Much appreciated!
Fantastic! Thank you! This really helps. Perhaps you could talk about fingering. I noted that your finger positions differ from traditional classical music fingering. E.g. in lick 8 and 9.
Thank you. Fingering is interesting with this stuff, because in many cases, traditional fingering doesn't really work. What I've found is, the right hand uses 1,2 and 3 a lot to facilitate getting around the half-steps. Of course, you should be mindful of fingering, and the goal should be to just make sure you're moving your fingers in a way that feel natural and without tension
@@WhalenJazzLessons The guitarist master Segovia told my teacher: "Whenever something is hard to play, you are doing something wrong." I found that interesting. And in 99% of the cases that has been borne out on the keyboard.
GodBless you and your channel i see that i gonna learn a lot of stuff with your channel.Could show me the left hand voicing in this video maybe later in another video? Many thanks
This is a good lesson! I looked up your bio and saw you were in Phat Phunktion. I lived in Madison in the 90s and saw you guys a few times and it was always a blast. At the Union Terrace once if memory serves. Looks like you’ve become very accomplished since then. Thank you!
@@WhalenJazzLessonsThat’s terrific to hear! Incredible you guys are still playing together after all these decades. I’ll check it out. I downloaded your warmup pdf and it looks great. I’ve played a long time but mostly just reading. Last couple years ive been learning the language and stuff like this has been my bread and butter.

You’re preaching the gospel…as a saxophonist I wasted 20yrs trying to improvise with scales…great content
Amazing lesson! Very helpful! Was insightful to see how the Bird style line came together with combining the ideas 👍
This is, by far, the most useful jazz lesson video I ever watched on RUclips!!! Amazing! Thanks a lot!

Thank you! I’m glad it’s helpful. I’ll definitely get into some left hand stuff!
Thank you! Excellent video!
The numbering for lick #2 is for a 5 chord. But the chord symbol is the 1. You're playing on the 1 chord, but it seems written to play on a V-I
Damn, I messed that up! Yes, it should be: 5 7 1 4 3
@@WhalenJazzLessons Well, you got me to play it 2 different ways while I tried to figure it out. So all good!
How's it possible I'm the first person to comment. This is a great video, just what I'm after. Well done.
Much appreciated! Thank you!
Brilliant stuff.
