Advanced Pentatonics DVD - MP4 Version
Volume 1 in The Lot2learn Method Jazz Instructional Video Collection explores the dynamic and exciting sound made famous by modern jazz artists such as McCoy Tyner. The DVD uses the same overhead piano view that has made Lot2learn one of the most popular jazz instructional channels on YouTube. Each note played is clearly seen on the piano keyboard as well as being highlighted on a MIDI keyboard. Narration and text explains each concept and provides the necessary information needed to apply these methods to your playing. As a bonus, your purchase includes all of the MIDI files used in the creation of the DVD. Using a MIDI player and your computer, you will be able to slow down and examine each note played for each of the lessons. This is the Digital Download Version in MP4 video format and will run on most computers (including PC's and MAC) and will also run on tablets (iPad and Android). The file is a single .zip file containing the MP4 video file and the PDF notation and MIDI files.
The DVD is divided into 11 chapters, starting with a basic review of scales and chord voicings and presents several practice exercises to help gain familiarity and fluidity in your playing. The first few chapters are excellent for players just starting to explore this modern sound and also provides a good review with several tips and patterns useful to the more advanced player.
The remaining chapters really dig into this exciting improvisational style. Techniques and concepts are presented in a clear and concise manner and progress logically to allow each individual to proceed at their own rate. From playing "inside" to taking it "outside" and applying these concepts to jazz standards, the lessons on this DVD will without question help to expand your jazz vocabulary and add to your playing skills.
As a bonus, I have included a full length video tutorial using this modern playing style and applying it to the changes of the famous jazz standard "Misty". In this tutorial, I use the methods presented in the earlier chapters and demonstrate how these techniques can be applied in the playing of almost any song. Your free download of the MIDI files will also include the MIDI file of this tutorial as well as a MIDI and MP3 backing track used in the production of this "Misty" tutorial so you can practice playing along with the bass and drum accompaniment yourself.
