[@DrJoshGuitar]

This is really a great lesson for anyone wanting to have freedom to improvise over rhythm changes. This is really a great approach! Thank you!

[@GypsyAndJazz]

You're very welcome! This just has to come in handy!

[@markdeffebach8112]

Hey Yaakov, I think this is the best, most concise, least confusing, most complete, least intimidating, most encouraging rhythm changes lesson I've ever experienced! I'm familiar with all the material you presented, but I've never seen it presented so completely yet simply in one lesson. Great job!

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Thanks Mark. So happy to hear that! Please check out my blog for more lessons and join my community: www.gypsyandjazz.com/the-blog/ Cheers!

He is the best teacher. He gets you inside the music and makes it fun, colorful and easy. The triad solo thing at the end is a bit more challenging than he makes it sound. But that’s ok. He makes soloing over the 1/6/2/5 pretty simple and he helps you by giving you options! You gotta have options! Then your improvising gets much more interesting and fun to play. So thank you to what’s his name in this video. Watch it twice !

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Thank you Ken!

Yaakov, your instructional videos are excellent. I have already bought 2 of your courses and both have been superb. This video about Rhythm Changes is one of the best I've seen. This has inspired me to try some new approaches that I'd not thought of before. Fantastic stuff!!

Thank you , paul

[@jackdoe8483]

Great video by a great teacher

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Thanks! Let me know how you're coming along with it.

[@testtone5523]

Thanks for the lesson, can you talk about what backing track you use also the playback system? Thanks

[@GypsyAndJazz]

I've been using the Boss loop station RC-20 for about 20 years. There are new versions now. When I use backing tracks, rather than my own recorded rhythm, I just take the first thing that comes up on KZbin. There are lots of ways to record your own rhythm. Whatever works for you is great! Enjoy playing and learning!

[@carlitosvh91]

This is very helpful. Thank you

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Glad to be of help!

[@BernardGlorian]

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Thanks Bernard. Happy new year!

[@tinkertoyskeptic1454]

Best video ever bro!

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Glad you liked it! It seems to be a very popular topic!

[@johnrothfield6126]

Excelllent lesson. A little off topic... Is improvising over tetrachords (Maqams) something you think about? I see an Oud in the background in some of your videos.

[@GypsyAndJazz]

I play the Oud, but I don't think in maqams when I play Jazz. I wanted to work on that but didn't get to it yet... Cheers!

[@antoinemartin1302]

[@antoinemartin1302]

When you say D... And A... You mean the arpege or the scale ..? Pentatonic scale.. or major scale..? Thank you..

[@GypsyAndJazz]

I mean the chord. I show different colors around each chord. Hope that helps. And hey, Did you hear about my upcoming La Pompe online workshop? courses.gypsyandjazz.com/courses/la-pompe-live-workshop Hope to see you!

[@pierrededijon4112]

Hello Yaakov, thanks a lot for your video. It's always a pleasure to listen to you. But I don't anderstand why you write A7 (Dom7) leads to D at 6:34. Dom7 doesn't sound good. Mim7 sound good.

[@GypsyAndJazz]

A7 is the 5th degree of D. So it's the Dom7 chord in the key of D and it builds some energy that leads to D. This is the progression, You have it in all the western music. Sounds good or bad it's a matter of taste but that how it works. The Dom7 chord is always major. Hope that helps

[@kidwolfman]

says A7 then plays A13/Bb

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Great! Now you know that common and very effective variation on the A7!

[@marcus2515]
