Hi Jens .. I used the triads in a rock song .. I mean that thing what i practiced that i have all triads in one exercise and i let it loose on my new track and it works man.. Thanks, you changed my sound because of that practice exercise. And you took me out of the scales and i think in little pieces of music instead, that was a huge step forward. You give inspiration

Thanks for this! You've shown me more ways to use the triads I already love. Nothing has helped me understand music and guitar more than triads.

You are the gamechanger Maestro! You have the gift to explain in a very practical and simple way things that seems so complicated that the 99.9% of teachers complicate them more! God bless you! I hope to have the opportunity in the future to know you, see you live and maybe study with you!

@JensLarsen This is a brilliant lesson! It unlocks easily understandable ways to access altered, diminished, and outside sounds - and to apply them musically. I love it when you sidestep away from Bebop basics, stop talking about Barry Harris, and demystify more-modern tonalities. Very grateful

Great video Jens

Thanks Jens ! There's a lotta good stuff here. I personally prefer to practice Triad Shapes in Position because I can remember them better. This way, it is easier for me (in Real time) to play their Inversions as well. I get better flow. I do make sure to not forget which Diatonic Scale Degrees surround the triad tones. Of course, the amount of diatonic scale tones surrounding the triad tones may vary depending on what Chromatic Tools I want to use to decorate the Triad. I do practice triads in the scale too because that helps everything as well. It's all connected. I like Triads for SO many reasons - but mainly because they help me ORIENT (Yay !!) where I am on the fretboard and in the Music. I hardly get lost now - that's a great feeling !! The neighbours have stopped banging on my front door with an empty saucepan. 🫕

This is so advanced but I like to start it over .. trying to think better about it.

Hi there Sensei of the axe 🎸, Your lesson reminds me of a book/approach by David Becker: “Get your playing into shape”! Do u know it? He emphasizes the importance of triadic shapes to make your lines melodic and how triads run through scales like character traits run through families ! Enough rambling on my part; I gotta go PRACTICE 🙋🏿‍♂️😉🫡!

Hey Jens, I took your advice & learned Parker playing Billie's Bounce, Now's The Time, Au Privave to develop Jazz-Blues Vocab. It's feeling much more natural already! Thank you. I wonder if you could suggest some easy solos to learn? I watched your video where you suggest: Chitlins Con Carne - Burrell; Grand Slam - Christian; Cool Blues - Green; Four on Six - Montgomery; Borgia Stick - Benson. I've started working on these & they sound great! Can you suggest any other albums or players or tunes that you'd give to students to develop their vocabulary and soloing after doing the above? Thanks

Great lesson Jens. One question please: Whats the theory behind the Db triad working over the Galt in the ii V i - I see it's the Dom5 chord, but not sure how to explain to myself. Thanks for great work as usual

@JensLarsen

It is the diatonic triad from Db in G altered (which is the same set of notes as Ab melodic minor) Try to write out that row and construct the triads (I show them in the video, but writing it out is incredibly useful)

@@JensLarsen Thanks Jens..Im with you up to the choice of the diatonic 5 chord and the mode of the Ab melodic...Im just missing a crucial bit as to why the Db triad works, or would any of the Galt diatonic triads been equally good choices. It sounds great of course and maybe its because of the functional behaviour of the 5 chord?

Sorry, master, but I noticed that your enclosures put target notes on the upbeat... Doesn't Barry Harry have a word or two to say about -or against - it?

Musical dividends from playing seventh chords inversions must be low. No need to scrape the bottom of the barrel like that I suppose😅
