    Sandra, I have learned from you more than I thought I could learn from any other instructor. For a long time I have been stretching out my fingers by putting my opposite hand in between them and open them almost to break them. Now I can play anything, I can reach any hard chord easily. And you have become my favorite instructor in this jazz style.

    Sandra, this is an enriching introduction into the complex subject of Jazz chords. As a beginner, I can follow your explanations very well, how you came up with the chord families, the E string and A string chords, the changes from major to minor and the difference between half diminished and fully diminished chords. This makes sense to me now - for the first time !!! It’s amazing how well you can explain. And your recommendations how to practice these chords are also very helpful, gave me new insights and are now my roadmap for practicing. To have a basis material for practicing, I bought your starter pack chord melody and starter pack II V I and I can highly recommend it to every Jazz beginner. Thanks a lot, Birgit

    Sandra, thank you! I played guitar a lot when I was young, and loved it. You’re too young to remember the ‘60’s, but I played the usual R&R garage band crap (pardon me, please). I haven’t played at all for 40 years, but decided to pick it up again, and try to learn something more sophisticated. I have always loved and wanted to learn jazz chords, but they seemed difficult and elusive. But they’re not-when you explain them. If you, and KZread, had existed back then, I could have been playing, and enjoying, elegant chords like Gm7, and Cdim7, 35 years ago. I’m elated that I found you. Keep doing what you do. As you say, “Greetings from Kansas City”.

    Sandra - Greetings from Florida. Kudos for the outstanding videos you posts. I have always loved Jazz and in high school played my lap steel guitar in our Jazz Band in the middle 1950s. We placed first place in many event with Glen Miller's In the Mood (lead on the steel guitar). After high school, I basically didn't play again until 2011 and since have been relearning the Steel and the Standard Guitar. At age 78 I am still learning. I ordered your "All of Me" and will be working on that, but first I plan to become proficient with all of the chords in this video. Just playing those chords makes some beautiful sounds coming out of my Godin 5th Ave CW Kingpin II Cognac guitar (Thomastik strings). You are tops!

    I don't have many theory lessons online, but I throw in a lot of theory into my tutorials, so maybe you can pick up something there.

Thanks so very much for your totally fascinating and digestible lesson. It's an AHA MOMENT for me. Phew, I was always wondering HOW chords got their names... I only knew the flat 3 made a MINOR CHORD! Others seemed so damned complicated and just plain sorcery to me! I'd guess others agree! YES? SUBSCRIBED!

Thanks so very much again, your teaching style and knowledge is unlike any other! I just can't believe how hard and complex music theory is... Bad enough, but so called teachers make it worse than it needs to be! I have wasted so much time and energy with huge effort without meaningful progress! 🙉🙉🙉🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶🎶 You have taken the mystery away from chords by showing how the patterns exist, which means it is now possible to understand the entire fretboard... 😀😀😀
