Use This Exercise To Get The Most Out Of Arpeggios!

[@JensLarsen]

Do you work on using arpeggios? Probably my most important advice for Jazz beginners: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJDYpnucp7KZf7M

Larsen's lessons go beyond jazz....many of his tips and lessons can be applied across any genre.... good stuff.

[@JensLarsen]

Thank you 🙂

Thanks!

Jens, you pack so much information into every 10-second fragment of your videos that it would take me 3 lifetimes to learn it all. Thank you for the incredibly informative and instructive videos! They are like an enlightenment for me every time.

[@dutchjack]

I have to say, your videos are fantastic. They are pitched at just the right level for me! I understand 60% of the lesson immediately, the remaining requires more thought - very stimulating and fun!

[@JensLarsen]

Glad you like them!

[@galgiber]

Love your videos!! this one is great and very helpfull to me. on the example in 8:28 you play f#(which sound very nice) and writen g#

I've started working on Arpeggios as an offshoot of one of your other recent videos where you suggested playing down the scale in thirds. I thought, "Well if I know the thirds, I know the arpeggios." I have been naturally sticking to single octave arpeggios off each diatonic note of the scale as it just seemed more digestible, glad you agree. It's not all worked into my playing yet, but I think the additional steps for my practice routine I can add from this video will help.

[@JensLarsen]

Great! Go for it 🙂

Hello Jens, perhaps you may give a lesson on how to play what you hear in ur head on the guitar, and the stacked blues scale, for moving around, and a good way too combine chordal movement Into a solo, maybe talk about common phrasing traits of jazz masters, you have noticed I think your great, i expect. Your playing to be good, but what I like the most is the tone, the clear pure bell chime tone you employ, well done, keep making vids they are very good

[@JensLarsen]

Thank you! I'll keep that in mind 🙂

[@boydross]

Hi Jens big fan of your videos and I’m on the jazz guitar roadmap course. So I assume you’ve heard of Pat Martino’s “minor conversion” approach to improvising over songs - where you convert every chord to it’s related minor form. What is your take on this? Is this how you think when improvising over songs? If not then what alternative approach would you suggest?

[@JensLarsen]

I have heard about it. I personally, prefer to think something that fits with what I am hearing and not have extra layers of translation to solo.

[@cbolt4492]

1:46 Arpeggio up then scale down

[@cbolt4492]

4:16 Insert arpeggio into scale run to 'take a break'

[@timwalsh9299]

Concise and awesome as usual, thank you Jens!

[@JensLarsen]

Glad it was helpful!

[@cbolt4492]

More brilliant information. Looking forward to the chord course that was in the last email ( I did reply... ) 😎

[@JensLarsen]

Thank you, Chris

[@qbaz4652]

It isn't question for that film but I watched your films about using fractal. I'm owner of helix and I'm looking for cabinet for live shows. What kind of cabinet do you use at home during gigs? (frfr cabinets or something different?)

[@plumhunter9158]

What was all that floating plastic at start of video?

[@RobKandell]

It was set as a Premier. KZbin has different options for that.

[@JensLarsen]

What @RobKandell said 🙂

[@minhdung2492]

that's way over my head for now 😅

[@guillll]

I misheard "you can compare Jazz to cocaine". I was like 😳

[@JensLarsen]

Those two were also related at some point 😁

[@italovercellina6322]

❤👍🤗

Your video about the most important scale exercise was kind of an eye opener for me a couple of years ago and the beginning of a great journey. Never stopped practicing arpeggios since then! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIvIY2V4g8und6Msi=2P7R6yEBs3Az-Id4
