How To Leave Space. Blues Harmonica
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Leaving space? Less is more? Music is the space between the notes? All good and quaint phrases but HOW? Where? In this video we will explore some practical effective techniques using rhythm, counting and down beats for creating tension and power in your solos and ensemble work alike. We're using a Hohner Cross Over Harmonica in "A" here in the key of "E" Major. Check out the related videos linked below.

Loving where you're at the moment, as a human, as a teacher and a traveller. Europe's fun ain't it!? Great video and lesson. Thank you.
God bless the down beat and the space in between.........
Those percussive noises (and underlying groove connection), are so important! Thanks for the lesson and reminder. Your rock J.

jason I love your videos- your arpeggio lessons and working with a lick in different phrasings is the next it of the road in my playing. Power to you sir, can't wait till you tour Scotland some time!
Moon Cat my old mentor Tall Richard always told me whatever happens stay on the beat he said if you lose the beat leave some space for yourself to get back on it. As always great lesson !! ALL HAIL FREE FRIDAY !! Austin- 3:17 🌜😺!!
I needed this one. I've started to go to a lot more jam session and I find myself playing just a little too much with leaving space so thank you for this!
Space is the place. All or your videos are instructive and in the best possible sense,, challenging. This one is no different but its seeming simplicity made me smile. Love the slower playing which makes it immediately more accessible for me to learn new phrases/licks. Thank- you. BTW I was fortunate to see Sun Ra ( and his Solar Infinity Cosmo Jetset Arkestra) here in Cleveland in 1988, and saw his legacy Arkestra here a few years before Covid hit. Big love to you and everyone in the band. Stay safe out there.

Very sweet, Thanks!

Jason you are a Genius...
BB King was the master of leaving space. He said you gotta leave room for the lick to breathe.
Wish you were coming to the UK. I can feel you’re hundreds of miles away and not thousands of miles away. 🤗🤗🤗Thought I could hear you playing. Play louder 📣💥💥💥💥❤ great lesson!!!
Beautiful!!!Good luck with the tour❤
“ music is made by the spaces between the notes.” I can’t remember who told me this or who the quote is credited to but it’s so true. Another one I like is “there are no wrong notes, only pleasing and dissonant ones”.
Brother man, I have had sooooo much fun with this lesson. I'm adding it to my practice playlist. Thanks for that, man. Hope we get a chance to talk soon. Ps. I'm still practicing at least 10 min a day.
Jason sounds great playing without even a backing track. Pretty cooi.
Space is hugely underrated….especially when playing with others

Jason Ricci is underrated ❤
Great stuff...I feel convicted about leaving space to the point where I didn't want to watch this video. But I'm glad I did!
Best one ever. So needed this.
The feet and bouncing basketball!
Beyond superb harmonica, I find your videos to be knowledgeable, insightful, and articulate.

Speaking of leaving space...when my wife found out I swapped our bed for a trampoline, she shot through the ceiling like a rocket ship.

Today's free erm... Thursday is brought to you by a Mooncat trying not to just blow into the thing. Probably left too many spaces for the purists. 😂
