How To Play Outside The Changes

[@anandgodane8022]

Thank you so much sir 🙏❤❤❤❤❤

[@Charles-Robitaille]

Always such a great teacher! 👍

This works, folks! Partially as a joke last year, i learned "Baby Shark" and applied it to SO MANY tunes and solos. It surprised me and got everyones attention. Even got tipped. 🤦🏻🤣 THIS IS A MICRO MASTERCLASS!! #ineedtoplayinsidemore

I've heard Mehldau describe it in a similar way as well. I still find myself needing more time on the inside the changes part, but will on occasion dip outside if the moment seems right. Good video!

[@smittyj8054]

Hello friend! Would you kindly provide a link (video or texts) for this? Big fan of Mehldau as well! This was a great mini course, and Mr. Sirota delivered fantastic explanations!

@@smittyj8054 I think it was in an old clip on KZbin called Brad Mehldau masterclass.

Glad to see you are back 😀

[@fekkyb]

Made sense. But truth is LEARN TO PLAY INSIDE REALLY WELL FIRST. ✨🙂👍🏼💫

[@michaelbarker6460]

Exactly. I've always said playing a good melodic Rhythm Changes is going to test a jazz musician a lot more than something like Giant Steps. One of those you have to really know what you're doing. The other one you can basically do whatever.

Welcome back sir. I really missed your lessons.

Great stuff, Ruslan - as usual. Than you for being so generous.

Best teacher on yt

[@brandex2011]

Especially if you're a pianist. As a guitarist, I really appreciate Ruslan's approach to teaching. Guitarist Chris Whiteman has a similar approach.

Thank you after many years wellcome

What I learned from this short little snippet is that any strong melody will sound good over any power chord.

[@citizencain454]

I think it all happened when we all heard what John Coltrane said. And then we thought, I've got to know what this is all about! Me personally, I'm still trying to play inside the changes.

[@StefanoDrums-n5v]

The second example sounds so much Emerson Lake & Palmer to me

[@normalizedaudio2481]

People say my outside notes are "angry." I'm a nice person. I am not angry.

[@Miroslav-guitar]
