Met him 25 years ago. Equal parts master musician and gentleman. He sat down with the band I was with to eat and chat. Amazingly easy going, engaging and encouraging and at the same time at ease with acknowledging his contributions without being self important. He possesses an inspiring confident humility. I hope I get to meet him again one day.

Before the video played, a Carlos Santana "master class" ad appeared. Not to riff on Santana, but the class began right after that ad stopped. I love Pat's colorful use of vocabulary to describe these concepts ... it bewildered me for most of my early playing career. Now that I have a better understanding of things, I enjoy it immensely.

Pat's "stairways" can also be viewed as descending chromatic lines to connect chord "target notes" or "goal tones" as used in bebop phrasing. Fantastic player.

This is amazing. I think this is the first time I've heard him open up about his style of playing. No geometry or philosophy. Just connecting short minor Bebop phrases with chromaticism. Of course done in his own special style. I think this video is awesome!!!

This is gold! I think back to my young brain, 20 years before ever picking up a guitar, I always tried to form melodies to land on a target note along with familiar songs on the radio. I’m talking 5, 6, 7 years old. Little did I know I was preparing to struggle with playing jazz guitar! Lol. This is really great to see all these great players on you tube. What a gift. I now know my first Pat Martino lick! 🙏

This is gold. You can make your own chromatic lines and hear the different accents they give but still just be shifting to each goal motif. I always wondered how he made his beautiful runs

Finally a good explanation from Pat Martino who is one of my heroes but his explanations are extremely tangential and hard to follow at times. I don’t think if this is pretentiousness but I just think he’s been insulated in his thought process that it is hard to explain with words. So maybe he should just show his technique and not even say anything about it.

He is showing one way on how to change fret positions on the guitar fluently instead of just jumping into the new position.
@slothedog8 жыл бұрын
Jazzmasterer's comment is right.. he's encouraging you not to stick to certain positions. I have that exact trouble, I see or hear a chord and have my favourite place to play over it on the fret board, which will sometimes cause me to make huge leaps to get there ruining the fluency of what I'm playing. Pat is demonstrating just one way to avoid this and keep your lines fluent and have the whole fret board at your disposal. I've been working on it lately. :-)

@davidkennedy12717 жыл бұрын
The context seems to be the melody....not the mode. Know the melody in any position up the neck and anything goes as long as it's resolved....resolve to the melody and you always end resolved. (resolve to dissidence if you want to tense your audience) As you move back and forth up and down the neck you'll always fall to the melody or a piece of it. It's geometric...not modal. you can use any shape...chromatic is easy to resolve....notice how he slides his first finger back down each fret....looks like he's finding the resolution. He explains it with a small melody line...than he moves all over and back to the melody...at a another floor of the house (neck position). I think he always knows where the melody is even if he's improvising for 10 minutes. Anything goes over anything as long as it's resolved. Chromatic never has a note sitting very long over a chord until it's resolved. Some shapes will create a lot of tension....chromatic creates less. It's all about the melody.
