***************************************
In this video you'll learn everything you need to know about the ii v i minor improvisation on guitar. I'll explain you the theory behind each of the scale degrees. What scales to use over the half diminished chord, the altered dominant chord and the minor chord. You'll learn the ii v i scales to use and what tons to focus on each chord.
The ii v i progression is one of the most important progression in jazz. Besides the major cadence, there also is the ii v i in minor and you must know how to solo over it, if you want to play along any jazz standard (particularly those in a minor key).
I'll teach you five ii v i guitar licks in all 5 positions. I'll explain the theory and scales behind them. I'll play through each of those minor ii v i jazz guitar licks at fast and slow tempo. I'll teach you note for note, slow and easy.
Of course I've made all the scale diagrams you need for your ii v i guitar solo improvisation, as well as the PDF and Guitar Pro TABS. And if you want to play along a ii v i backing track I've got you covered as well. Please download from the links above.
All ii v i jazz guitar licks are in the key of C minor, as is the minor ii v i jazz backing track.
I hope you like my ii v i guitar lesson and give my video a thumbs up. Please share the love and the knowledge and subscribe to my channel.

Thank you Sandra for making these hard times in which we are going to be quarantined bearable. We have waiting time but with your help and classes it is almost a treat. thanks from Spain

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

All the best for you, my friend. Our government just announced a partial lockdown of Austria. And no more flights to and from Spain, Italy, Frsnce, USA etc. I went to the supermarket today and all the shelves were empty. From Monday on week have a lockdown. It's crazy! I plan on doing more videos to make up for the teaching sbd gig losses. So good for my viewers 😊

Sandra, I can't believe that it took me so long to find your videos. I was looking for just a lick or two, but this was utterly fantastic! Your adding of theory to the excellent licks makes this a video to spend hours with , literally. Thanks so much! Jim D

Hey, welcome to the jazz fun! 😊 Have you watched my theory lesson on the altered scale? Enjoy the jazz ride ❤️

[@Jamestele1]

I learned so much from your diminished over dominants and Dorian Trick packages, that I had to purchase the II-V-1 starter pack. I love it. Your lessons are awesome. I am "backfilling" my music theory knowledge, and the theory that you add to your lessons are right on time, so to speak. A lick is one thing, but to understand why it works, makes it a tool in your toolbelt. Peace

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

You have the right mindset 😊. Glad you learn so much from my lessons.

Sandra, thanks for another great lesson. I’ve been memorizing minor 2-5-1 arpeggios and the accompanying chords In each position, but this lesson gives me the vocabulary to make use of all that information. Desde Madrid, un abrazo ( higiénico). Edward

[@richardsorice4509]

Hey Sandra, it's Christmas Eve 2020 during the pandemic, so instead of hanging with family, I'm checking out jazz guitar videos. I'm just 10 minutes into the video, but the first lick is amazing. I kind of do the same as you, thinking m7b5 as minor 7 up a minor third and using diminished on altered dominant starting on 3, 5, 7 or b9 and using chromaticism in between some of the tones. My lines are okay, but yours are better. Great lesson. Thanks and Merry Christmas from Cincinnati, OH, USA!

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Hey Richard, nm glad to be your company dieing quarantine. I wish you a swinging new year, and hope that we can go back to normal in 2021. Hold fast 🎶🎸

Gah-reetings Sandra! Hope you’re feeling better this week! Yummy lunch, and good “licks” to go with😄👍. Especially liked #5😉. Chord tones - yes! Always a good way to get out of a jam, too! Great tutorial👏.

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

I'm totally fine again. Hubby, not so much. Home quarantined 😢. Glad you like the licks ❤️.

[@barrysebastian9584]

Guitarversum Sandra Sherman glad you’re better👏👍... but sorry to hear about your hubby. I hope he gets on the mend quickly! Here in the states, schools/work/events all closing and getting cancelled - really scaring everyone. Stay well!

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Yes, we have a partial lickdown here. Schools, unus, kindergardens closed. Travel ban to Italy, no events exceeding 100 people. It's a disaster. Fortunato we have free health care (except me, lol. As a self employed I have 20% deductible, but it's not really much. We have realistic prices here 😊)

[@alexanderaltago]

I simply like your style of teaching, nice lesson, thx

Superb lesson as always, Sandra. Any chance you could do an arrangement and lesson on “You’d Be So Nice to Come Home To”? Thanks much.

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Sure, I'll put it on my list. If it's doable, I'll do it 😊

[@laureanoahmad7495]

Sometimes if you want to have a old-fashioned french style lick like Django. It's good to resolve in Xm6 chord. Not mention to hold that major 6 chord tone. Just to spice up things.

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Absolutely!

[@vladstankaninets8620]

C minor is a Relative minor key of Eb major, not a Parallel minor key. Just in case guys are looking to understand the theory bit correctly. Great videos, though. Cheers!

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Thank you. I know that, but I always confuse it with the German term. We call it Mollparallele, which translates to parallel minor.

[@joeinterrante7873]

I started playing when I was ten. Made a lot of progress until age 17. Life got in the way now I want to catapult my learning. I am 62. What is the best way to make up the years. I need to learn the modes? Can I just train my ears?

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Moses ate just a fancy word for targeting Chord tones while playing in the correct scale. That's the key to good jazz playing. Don't forget the phrasing (of course I have a video lesson on that 😊), which is let duper important, or you won't sound authentic.

[@everettsmith971]

How about stomping at the savoy lesson? 😉

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Great idea!

[@jimkangas4176]

These are fine but I'm a little surprised you didn't use the harmonic minor. Especially for people who grasp a 2-5-1 in major, it's the closest analog to being able to use a single scale and you get many of the same things (e.g., diminished arpeggio). It was used by all the bebop guys (Charlie Parker, Clifford Brown, etc.). The thing that I love about it is that it yields some very interesting melodies, plus you have the two major triads (5 and 5+) adjacent to each other. Perhaps you already did this in an earlier video.

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

You're absolutly correct about the Harmonic Minor Scale. I tend to teach people the altered Scale first, bc it's universally usable. I'm already planning a harmonic minor scale tutorial. And I'll be doing a version of this video using the HM in the future. Maybe I should have used the HM on this one already, but I thought, since a lot of my subscribers already have the altered Scale Licks from the major 2 5 1 tutorial, it would be easier. And the alt scale is absolutly valid too, therefore I did it that way. Well, more videos on the way 😊

[@donlessnau3983]

I must be missing something or I'm really far behind in understanding theory because I find this confusing. Around 1:30, she says she's in EbM with a D Locrian. But then she says since it's a minor 2-5-1, you need the "parellel" minor of EbM and she says that's Cm???? Cm is the "relative" minor of EbM, no? What am I missing? D half-diminished is the 2 of Cm but Cm is NOT the "parellel" minor of EbM. Unless I'm not smart enough yet. ??? Confusing.

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Oh, maybe I mixed things up. We use the word parallel in German, we don't differentiate. But I meant the relative minor to Eb, which is Cm. You got it all right! 😊

[@donlessnau3983]

@@GuitarversumSandraSherman Thanks a lot. That helps a lot. Danke Ihnen sehr.

[@donlessnau3983]

@@GuitarversumSandraSherman BTW. If you only use "parallel" in the German, how does someone know if you're referring to the parallel minor of a key or the relative minor? Here, we say Cm is the parallel minor of CM. And Am is the relative. What do say over there?
