Hey Chad, please, want you to do that?: The empathy of Jack Lane played by Chazz Lb on the Street (on the reality) with a other great original video, and with Danielle Vitale hehe or with the Sax world colaboration (me encantó, y tu solo, creo empezaba con un tornado de notas hacia arriba y haces arriba un detalle creo que muy tuyo, y luego unas frases funkys: dá da duuublip da da da dá dap duuuuuublip... Hehe) people hehehehe thanks 💛🎶🎷🐤☺️ suena muy bien, podría decir cosas que me gustan de tu timbre también o de tu playing pero mejor lo resumo jeje, en España decimos: bueno si breve dos veces bueno xd

Hi Chad. Iv’e got the Standards mastery package + the 60 approach note/enclosure pdf so I have my work cut out. Looking at your pentatonic combo package you have a 67 pentatonic phrases pdf and I guess that that is in the same format as the enclosures workout. A question on those pdf’s, for fastest learning rates (Because there are No Short Cuts!). Would you suggest learning and playing the phrases as per your demonstrations eg. play all of the phrases in each key grouping. Or would you take a single phrase through all the keys in various ways/progressions?

Sorry bro, can't make it to your wedding today. Chad dropped

[@zephaniarutlokwana2891]

You thought me to bisect and analyze jazz licks. l am so grateful for that. Thank you for the music lessons

[@JohnCoughlan_JAC]

Great video and concepts overall but the hidden gem for me was you talking about using the common tones between inside and outside scales to pivot in and out of different tonalities. This is something I’ve been struggling with in my lines and I think this is going to be a big help for me. Thanks for sharing, now I’m off to practice!

[@glennhenrich992]

Thanks for the pentatonic explanation. The inside versions on 1st degree and 5th degree of gone chords was already familiar. Likewise the inversion or renunbering for m7. However I don’t buy the idea of that dominant ‘pentatonic on 1,3,5 and 7 of the mixolydian. To me this is sounding as a dominant 9th arpeggio, not a pentatonic sound.

[@jojopt2]

Once again, a great explanation of this concept. Hearing it again really helps drive the message home. Thanks for all the great videos!!

[@saxiroth6647]

Gotta love Chad. Really doesn’t get better than this.

[@scottmorrise]

I bought this set and have enjoyed playing them so far. Thank you Chad!

[@protectoresvaldivia7157]

Es muy generoso compartir tanta información y de una manera muy buena manera!!!! Muchas Gracias Chad!!! Saludos desde Valdivia Chile 🇨🇱 eres un gran ejemplo a seguir

[@DelphinusOrcastra]

Fun! Woody Shaw would use bebop gestures to initiate tonal shift. He called his techniques “polytonality” 🐬

[@dillolechat4976]

Hey, sounds interesting, I really enjoy woody Shaw' s playing.. have you got anything ( doc/ link) of the concept your talking about?. merci!

[@StoneysWorkshop]

good grief! Great stuff here. Also looks like a soprano on the shelf, love to hear a lesson on that!

[@AniketChaturvedi]

Glad to see you back!

[@coreychandler2016]

I love your explanations and demonstrations. They stretch me and help me truly understand. You play them as smooth as silk. I think I have a full year's work just on this one étude.

[@newtonlkh]

The explanation of the pentatonic shifting in Don Lee to be very thorough, clear and impressive! Thank you! Are these explanations included in the pdf? or are we supposed to work it out on our own?

[@kenbeattie2584]

Another great video and exiting ideas, thank you. I am working on getting these scales under my fingers in all keys so can take this stuff to the next level. I have several of your packages now and really like the way you include examples of pentatonic shifting in many of them, which are great for reference.

[@percyvolnar8010]

The opening of every Chad LB videos...... 🤣

[@omareubanks4784]

First to be here… Massive fan🙏🏽

[@bluessax5089]

Dang, I may have to get this one ☝🏽 🔥

[@effsixteenblock50]

F# minor pentatonic over the G7? You usually use a minor pentatonic a half-step down over a chord that you want to bring out the Lydian sound.

[@davemazur2062]

Best tone of all time.

[@marike1100]

These sound terrific, I’m definitely gonna buy the book. Didn’t Don Lee draw Spider-Man? 🕷🎷

[@ili626]

Five thumbs up!

[@nyafyah]

Merci 💝

[@raybutcher3542]

Wish he could write out that phrase he played at the start!

[@IPoopOnYouEveryLastOneOfYou]

Wow, you tour with Chris Benoit? I hear he's a great hang!

[@JGCPlayAlongs]

That's the sound

[@Curious_er]

My goodness

[@anabeldabernal5879]

Me encantaría que tus vídeos llevarán subtitilos en castellano

[@ChrisF_1982]

How is that ligature, I can't really justify any major equipment purchases, but I think I could try a different ligature.

[@kormendymatyas8667]

so sounds like u can play any scale that has that one lead tone

[@amandarediger2178]

Do you have all this information in a book ? I need it in front of my thick head

[@charliethetyrton3209]

why a different mouthpiece and ligature so frequently ? thx

[@azerwhite8870]

He has his own mouthpiece with Syos so he plays that sometimes, and like he just mentioned he just did something with Boston Sax, I personally have a couple mouthpieces

[@MyMusicEducation]

Are the pentatonics labelled in the etudes?

[@hianangelo1008]

Could someone please recommend reasonably well-known songs using F# our Gb major pentatonic?

[@WBUSCH49]

A work out over' on a Slow boat to China-Town ' Stan Getz 2.0 with Nice modern Hacks would be a cruel step forward I guess...
