A Night In Tunisia - Jazz Improvisation Lesson in 3 Levels

[@christophervieth1618]

I love the break down of 3 levels of skill. Level 3 makes more sense when you look at what the first 2 levels entail. It gives you a clear sense of progression.

[@lyreofgilgamesh]

Yes!

[@Monsieur405]

Exceptional teaching. I'm a classically trained percussionist with a set of vibes.. This is helping me get my jazz footing.

[@will_e8837]

Out of all of the ways I have had teachers approach imrpov, this has BY FAR been the most influential on my playing. Thanks

[@raymondrussell1754]

Maaan, this is one of the best lessons of what scales to play with chords I’ve learned yet!! Thanks so much for sharing!! 😎👍

[@alfredbellanti3755]

It's been so long I've heard vibraphone I'm grateful having found this video.

[@TonksToza]

Great lesson. Thanks. Leaves plenty of room for our own creativity.

[@marcleconnetable1346]

The best impro explanation I've ever seen on youtube !!! Really helpful, works for all instruments, thanks !

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Thanks!

[@BsharaRezik]

I loved your lesson and your method. Respectful to the music and to the musicians who want to learn it.

[@miguel017vass]

This video is really helpful, recently I started to hang out with a jazzist saxophonist and he asked me to play a bass solo for this tune and I always tend to use pentatonics because my jazz language is still low. Now I have a whole variety of sounds ideas and licks

[@JohnSmith-sq5rb]

These videos are brilliant

[@BrotherLaymanPaul]

Great video. I have been playing jazz for years, but often get intimidated by the, for lack of a better word, Middle-East inspired tunes (like this and Caravan) that have become associated with altered scales and more advanced theory. Your tutorial broke things down in an approachable way that I will try tonight at my gig. I also enjoyed your presentation: superimposing notes and scales over video for clarity. Nice work, excellent communication skills, Tim!

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Thanks - FYI Caravan is more about harmonic minor than altered dominant.

[@PhillipDrange]

Another awesome video, keep 'em coming

[@alanhowell3646]

Awesome lesson Tim thank you, you’ve unlocked that tune for me

[@Reuben446]

Great stuff, Tim. I'd just been discovering some of the stuff you were explaining from a symetrical stand point. Your clear explanation levels are bringing it all together. Thank-you. By the way, I jus subscribed.

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Thanks!

[@luidoacosta8911]

Merci beaucoup pour ce vidéo, très clair et didactique, à la fois qu’ inspirateur!!

[@garethjoice6733]

I love this breakdown, Tim. It's really helpful in my jazz journey. #Flugabone

[@JanNupnau]

The A7alt scale has the same notes like the Bb melodic minor scale?!?!? Wow!!! That blows my mind!!! 😅 Thanks a lot! You got a new subscriber 😊👍

[@toniogr8a]

Great job, man!! awesome phrasing, BTW!!

[@GerryLSmith]

I like the way the level 2 bridge is reminiscent of Blue Bossa..

[@DrJoshGuitar]

Just discovered your channel. Great stuff man.

[@alfredopenarandasoto6085]

Shazam * level 1 * : Is Night in Tunisia Also Shazam * level 2 * : Is Blue Bossa

[@gustavozelaya8185]

Muchas gracias!!!!

[@johnmcminn9455]

the eb is a tri tone off the dom7 and works with A alt I didn't see that at first These are some really GREAT sequencing concepts .

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Yes exactly - the Eb is a tritone sub of A7.. it’s basically V-i over and over.

[@johnmcminn9455]

@TimCollinsVibes Thanks Tim. I am liking the approach concepts visual sequencing on Vibe board even though my primary instrument is guitar . Didn't take long to realize the upper row is like black keys on the piano

[@TimCollinsVibes]

@@johnmcminn9455 correct!

[@nangapire]

Soy saxofonista, pero me aporta mucho este vídeo. Gracias

[@RickDanner]

Tim ima guitar player and this is the best anyone has ever approached this - I have people telling me play a Bbmaj scale to the Dm and a Bmaj scale to the Eb7 . A lot of people just play the solo in Dm with some D harmonic minor stuff . I love the way you play it and I notice that I have been playing gutiar so long and you just made the simple blues scale sound better than i ever could and its like should I just quit now ?

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Hehe don’t quit :) thank you for the compliments- I’m glad you enjoyed the video!

[@kassios]

Thank u, that was eye opening. I am a classic trumpet student, so any suggestions where to start my journey in jazz? Again my appreciation for this eloquent video.

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Thanks! I guess start learning some jazz tunes? Cantaloupe Island, Freddie Freeloader, So What.
