One of the best guitar teachers on KZbin. And I have watched many, many teachers.

[@bobparsonsartist564]

One of the best, most concise lesson I've ever seen.

[@hasanmir]

Totally agree. Watching this video, I feel like I've had an epiphany!

[@classicartfoundation639]

@@hasanmir and me!

[@zhaosieric8577]

Bob Parsons, Artist can’t agree more

[@antoniosantorini9355]

Exactly

[@mannymccash9660]

one of the best teachers anywhere online

[@aydoganberker2799]

Very good and useful lesson for those of us who try desperetly to understand gypsy jazz improvisation! Thank you, Yakov !

[@GypsyAndJazz]

You are welcome! you can apply this concept to any jazz improvisation you would like. as well!

[@alfiesolomon3531]

One day i clicked on a similar link and i saw a comment saying how the full course about triads helped so much. I never promote anyone on KZbin but i'd like to make it also public : the magic of triads is AMAZING! It doesn't come cheap but if, like me, you are tired of the goddam pentatonic/minor/major/all kinds of shapes improv and your stuck in a rut for years trying to sound more melodic & musical, his course is worth the money. I bought many methods in the past and i never really got there, Yaakov made it so simple and so effective it's just impressive. I'm no longer using scales ( well...not as much) and i can finally start to sound like i hear in my head. THANK YOU YAAKOV!

[@richardthomas9274]

This is easily one of the simplest and most useful triad tutorial I have seen. Its very easy to overcomplicate jazz improvisation. Thanks for showing me how simple it can be.

[@monoyamono]

Really mindblowing. The longer I play the more I realize how easy (and paradoxically difficult) it is to keep it simple.

[@Dcba964]

You are magic just like the triads! Thank you Sir!

[@nellheuer]

Thanks, the lesson was helpful for me! I do know triads for years now, but I felt stuck with all the functions of optional tones (#9,11,13 etc.), scales and theory. It always seemed overly intellectual, like a computer, to learn all the theory-stuff. But only playing by heart doesn´t work at a certain point anymore. The Magic of Traids you showed, seems like something in between these both ways to play guitar. Good Work!

[@GlennMichaelThompson]

Nice to see such a straightforward lesson. As you mention, it's not just applicable to Gypsy Jazz, you can hear these approach tones of 1/2 step below and a diatonic step above being used in swing, bebop, and really it can be used in almost any setting. I really appreciate your teaching style... fantastic! :0)

[@jonathanwirth3420]

This lesson changed my whole style.

[@helmet212]

Just can't thank you enough... this is exactly the way I've learnt guitar and look forward to keep learning. I'm always interested in understanding the fundamentals rather than learning famous licks and end up like every other guitarist around the corner. Thank you so much. Now I can build upon alot of what I got from you. Many thanks again. And you play wonderful!

[@JacksterDude12]

Explains so much in so little time, thank you! I've always wanted to learn how to use triads like this, but never knew where to start until now.

[@TheAvivProjekt]

You r a kind good soul 🙏 thank u for changing my whole playing life

[@jbowerman50]

Outstanding explanation! You just saved me years of experimenting!

[@crashpodROCK]

Any video lesson that makes me want to grab my guitar *right now*...well that is simply GREAT TEACHING!! Brilliant.

[@MarkSommerDk]

You show me what i have been looking for for so looong!!! What a fantastic guy you are and know how you got. Thanks so very much for free great lesson. Im honored.

[@barryjmccormack]

I really like this triad idea. I have been using triads but not the way you use them. It just clicked with me when you pointed it out how you could embellish the triad notes .It just made a lot of sense. Thankyou and I am subscribed !

[@TheChodex]

I find it funny how I was learning scales all different arrpegios licks runs etc. but in the end all I needed was a remainder to keep it simple and have fun, because that's what gypsy jazz is about. Thank you very much good man for this lesson! God bless you. :D

[@Nic-tg2ei]

I love the sound of that guitar so much!

[@DB-uf6md]

לא יודע איך לא הכרתי אותך לפני אבל גאווה גדולה להיות ישראלי!! אתה מלך

[@relaxingchannel3928]

one of the best triad exercise !

[@bozidarrajkovic1944]

True knowledge! Thank You. Smart is simple.

[@johnberg2913]

Wonderful lesson. Thank you! A simple concept with great depth and beauty. Gypsy jazz has so many personalities and flavors. You did a great job in sharing this with us. And that that guitar sounds splendid.

[@rifosi]

Great tip, I got your point. I just started to play Gypsy Jazz and found out that there's a lot of improvisation over chords, although of course players also use scales. Anyway, memorizing these inversions certainly is a good way to jump to improvisation. I just figured out an exercise for me, that is playing all three inversions and moving around using circle of fifths, than moving back in fourths. Thanks for sharing.

[@antoinemartin1302]

You are the best teacher.. 👍 Thank you

[@budandbean1]

Magic is right, this is some wonderfully magical playing! Thank you so much!

[@FrankDeruyck]

you make it sound easy, but it is difficult! still one of the best lessons I ever seen

[@pravdaofficial]

00:21 refreshing how even yaakov doesn't 'instantly' hit the chord correctly first time. not to take anything away from him...just encouraging that despite our efforts to perceive others as better (or even perfect!) that even the greats are in the same boat as us sometimes!

[@trystansharp8498]

Thank you so much dude!! That was an awesome lesson !! I’m gonna try it now !

[@markdunn7828]

Yakov, you are a great guitarist and teacher! Thanks!

[@ianpeden2906]

Yaakov's always excellent.

[@erichnussbaum]

This is a great lesson, one of the best i've seen! Thank you!

[@cleberguima1]

Yeah. This is how I play. :D Shapes and triads are a very good foundation.

[@JonJll]

subbed keep lessons coming awesome!

[@jbowerman50]

Simplified thought for improv

[@gregmcloughlin3213]

I had the same poblems when learning improv, it always seemed to me a focus on technical playing, but even my teachers didn’t sound musical. Simple is better in many ways. Also his first lesson was right hand picking, which is very important and usually not taught at all. His lessons are aewsome!

[@Paul1963music]

Maestro, All love me lo puede subir al tutorial pero alternado ??? Me refiero acompañamiento y melodia a la vez, chords and melody alternate, tipo Chet Atkins, saludos 👍

[@simbadmarino6708]

thanks great job

[@eagle49]

Beautiful instrument and you play like you were born with it. Is the neck action very low or standard depth? Do Gypsy players ever use steel strings? I'm self taught and been playing by ear for50 yrs. but would love a lesson from someone like you some day. Keep up the good work.

[@TheScrDog]

I would be careful with the half step below whole step above approach when it reaches the third of the major chord (minor chord approach is all good). It generally sounds better with a half step below and half step above dealing with the 3rd. While the sharp 4 can be acceptable in some instances the 4 to 3 movement is generally better. This is a good lesson but that move needs to be considered which of course loses some of the simplicity of the concept.

[@jonwein6148]

that's what he does...only not saying it :)

[@jrny2ixtlan]

TheScrDog Thanks for pointing this out!

[@oswen975]

He said "1 diatonic note above", so for the major 3rd it means the perfect 4

[@antoinemartin1302]

Лачипэн тукэ пшалоро!!!

[@bobbykiefer4306]

Every time I look in the comments I see over and over. "I never seen a guitar like that. What kind of guitar is that? Is it steel string?" Why the same question over and over? Its a steel string acoustic guitar. A Maccaferri remake. You can play Gypsy guitar on any guitar so it really doesn't matter.

[@AlexBunardzic]

At least they're not trying to comment about who does he look like. The worst comments are when people make those strenuous remarks how someone looks like Dustin Hoffman or whoever.

[@jimi6931]

Hello first thank you for the videos and especially this video that I found very interesting. There's a part you play from 10:26 until 11:09 minute could put the score of what you play? Thanks and regards. Sorry for my bad English.

[@leobaroni1904]

You seem to be playing a semitone above the 3rd note instead of a tone when using enclosure.

[@osvalrodriguez9133]

the magic of Yakov

[@jameshall8504]

All going well until the chords of "all of me " kicked in!

[@kungfuseadog]

Yakov, Yafe me'od, Toda! Do you by any chance know any guitar teachers you can recommend in Berlin? Thank you again, Liron.

[@ReileyWilliams]

My head just exploded.

[@knuckle47]

This has helped me to get of a few brain problems ... I believe I have a better grasp of this but my hands are still all tied up

[@EranVertzMusic]

hi, i like the sound of the recording. is it coming from th mic attatched to the guitar or a condencer in the room? how is the guitar miced? is it a piazzo ? what brand? thank you

[@skatetodeath666]

So you are using the note a full step above the note on all the notes in the chord, and a half below all the notes in the chord ? I didn't quite get if you were doing this only for the root note of the chord or with all the notes. Thank you

[@Aleksi32]

Half step below the chord tone always, but it changes when above. Then its scale tone, half or whole step above. Like in C major triad, scale tone above note C would be D (whole step). But above note E, scale tone is F (half step).

[@skatetodeath666]

T.K thank you

[@BastienFortin.]

Okay nice!but what about the triads,

[@MrAnonymous878]

Wow that's a cool looking guitar What kind of guitar is it?

[@lobato87]

They're known as "Selmer" or "Maccaferri", or both.

[@Bowwylad]

Here's real skill!

I start something new....

[@rafapak]

what guitar model is this ?

[@kevinatkab5219]

ERG Yaakov Hoter www.djangobooks.com/Item/erg-yaakov-hoter-gypsy-indian-rosewood

[@rafapak]

thanks for reply

[@ATBSFiM]

>"so you can play fast" no

[@soshwam]

great lesson but so boring sounding after 5 minutes definitely a starting point for structure but you're just playing an arpeggio and using the 7 and 2 for passing in 3 shapes...done a few different ways. I don't see any magic just very basic theory

[@bobbykiefer4306]

Have you seen this guy rip on the guitar? If you already know your triads then great. but maybe others don't know, hence the instructional video.

[@Ayo.Ajisafe]

Schwam that reductive statement "your just" (insert theory) was hilarious. It is just very basic theory but funny how easy it was for him to sound good and for you to complicate it. Which is why he's teaching and you are leaving negative comments. BTW in his very basic theory I can hear many melodic devices that django used. So i'll take the basic theory thanks.

[@gavinreid8351]

These triads are a gateway to expansive possibilities.

[@gavinreid8351]

Three shapes were shown as an introduction. . Each chord as 12 shapes. Then add minor, augmented, diminished, 48 shapes in limitless combinations.
