Jeff Berlin Demonstrates How to Transcribe By Ear (Intermediate)
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Jeff expands on his tried-and-true method to exploring some of your favorite solos by listening, identifying the notes, and then playing them on your bass. Here he takes on the first few bars of a solo from Miles Davis's "So What." But you can use this method for any solo in any musical genre. Stay tuned through the end of the video to hear why Jeff thinks transcribing (by ear or by writing) is one of the best ways to improve your bass playing. Next up: Jeff on transcribing by writing the notes down.

Thank you for your thought Rick. I appreciate it greatly.
Not even a bass player, but watching someone transcribe stuff helps to boost confidence about it
This was really helpful. Singing is really important. BTW, I use the 'Any Tune' software. It let's me put markers anywhere I want, so I can quickly jump to whatever section want to listen to without scrubbing around the recording trying to find the part I'm interested.
Masterful teaching Jeff, so good to see you online. It's Gary in L.A. from your old Wells days in Hollywood. All the best.
Thanks Jeff. Brilliant.

Cheers DX. I love it more than people know which is why I am alert to things that might not pan out for students even if they are told that they are.
Pretty much exactly how I learned every piece of music I’ve had to learn! I write and play original music most of the time these days. I joined up with a side project doing covers specifically to get more gigs, but with the intent of having to learn songs I wouldn’t otherwise. The trick has been that some songs are rearranged or keys changed by the band. So I have to unlearn a little and rethink how I play it. The really hard part is when the band has been playing something wrong for a long time...

Hi RNGRZULU Learning is different than playing. The better that you become by great learning, the better that you will play. But, it always begins with learning. Best regards Jeff
Thank you Jeff. Beautifully explained. I have done this to learn your bass lines ;-)
I surged out my first basslines of a number by ear two weeks ago and it feels so great, this was before I saw your video's on the subject today, I must have listend to the number at least 200 times but I got all the notes right and a compliment from my teacher, I'm almost 60 bye the way and started playing bass last year.

Just stumbled over your site. I'll be tuning in, your teaching style is great
Also a great challenge: find popular songs you know with fantastic vocal performances, but that you've never attempted to learn in any way, and based entirely on your memory, play the vocal lines as close to the original as possible against a karaoke version of the same song. For instance, Janis' vocals of "Me and Bobby McGee," or Garfunkel on "Bridge Over Troubled Water." It's not jazz harmony, but it's really, really great practice for timing, tone, expression, etc. Thank you, Jeff Berlin, for your music and wise tutelage.
Thank You !
Jeff... seriously... thank you for your channel and videos like this one. I’ve been doing this type of transcribing for years and try to impart this to others as well. This is the kind of stuff that makes musicians better and you explain it so well.

Ha But, if they would like to learn how to transcribe, they can use the technology of today end slow down the music and practice it this way. I do wish them well and will tell them that their bass playing will increase greatly by being involved in this kind of work. In my case, I never used LP's but recorded the music from the record player onto my cassette machine and would transcribe from there. I got so good with the Pause button that in a fast uptempo solo, I could pause on (say) the second or third note of a group of notes if I couldn't hear the whole phrase.

Thanks for the video, Jeff, good points for sure! Hey this reminds me of when I was in my teens, and a friend and I wanted to play "Bourré" by Jethro Tull. I sat there figuring out the bass for myself and then the flute part for the entire piece and taught it to my friend on the guitar. And we did it! Still have the recording from 40 years ago...lol.! I did this all the time and developed a fantastic ear. Once I played on a jazz gig at a big exhibition, 16,000 visitors during the day for 3 days, didn't know any of the songs since I was new to jazz but the bandleader knew me and was confident that I could pull this off just by ear (he also knew I can't read music...lol). That's the stuff that grows hair on your chest... hahahahaha. But having a good ear is a wonderful gift. Another thing I noticed is that I don't think in notes but in intervals. That means you don't really care what key the band wants to play song in, you're good either way...
I'm doing this literally as we speak for your live rendition of Lim Poo with Watanabe - cannot wait to do a cover of it soon! You've been my favourite bassist since I discovered Kazumi, even before I started bass itself. I was always worried/concerned about tackling some of your playing but it's going well so far!
Awesome lesson! It's very cool to watch an experienced pro work out a solo! I've never attempted to work out a Miles solo on bass, but this has inspired me to do it! Thanks, Jeff!

What a lost art. I remember sitting by the radio with my finger on the record button to catch the newest killer tune so I could learn it. Would take a week sometimes when I was a kid, but it was so cool to blow minds once I had something down. Was extra fun considering back then I was 80 percent guitar and 20 percent bass. Figuring out chords is a blast when you are clueless! 90 percent bass 10 percent guitar these days... bass is just too much fun!

Singing is one way to do this. But, this doesn't actually help people to identify the notes. What this actually means is that people heard the notes and duplicated them vocally.

Thank you Jeff. I think I see the point of transcribing now. It's another way of getting the music inside you. The more perspectives you see/hear it from the better you can play. I'm a late bloomer.. 71 learning to read the dots and more important the rhythm. I've always learned tunes by ear, so transcribing the melody is easy for me. But, nailing the rhythm makes my brain hurt. Happy new year !!
Thank you Jeff! This clip of ear training is how I learned to sing, play piano, guitar, bass and drums. in the 60's it was the only way to pick up a tune, by listening to the lp slowed down from 33rpm to 16rpm which was kind of tough as the pitch was considerably lower, but, hey with midi and digital recordings the pitch doesn't change, unless you want it to. one of my faves to practice is Joe Zawinul's "A Remark You Made"(Heavy Weather)

Great stuff Jeff. Yes, indeed the technology can certainly help these days. Especially looping and tempo changes. I remember so well having to do the same ear transcription process from vinyl as I’m sure you’ve used Jeff. Lifting the needle off and when putting it back down was always in slightly different place. Inexact science of the day. If I was holding a phrase in my mind and then checking it with the record, by putting the needle down in the wrong place meant the other musical sounds were competing with my memory. Sometimes you struck lucky, other times not. All helped I guess develop a sense of musical concentration. So good to see this lesson from you today Jeff. Many thanks for everything!

Hi Wolfgang. In being self taught, there are limitless ways to learn. But, in the teaching of academic music for pay, there most definitely is a right and wrong way to be taught. If there wasn't then why should anyone pay to learn? Consider that almost everything that is taught in vocational schools or universities is based on the teaching of facts to be learned. I think that bass should be taught to students as everything else is. Thank you for posting Wolfgang.
Yeah Jeff you hit the nail on the head here is to hear LOL I have pretty much been doing this for over 50 years of playing bass. Weather it's transcribing solos or just learning basslines to anything. It.s then I make my choices of how I use what I have learned to infuse parts or to improvise on it as to my liking, as I take critsism at times, like "hey your not playing it right!" I know I am not, I'm playing it how I want to play it, my rendition, as most of my musician friends get it and smike when they hear it. That's what makes it even more fun and it's not just the notes but how we phrase it and even the groove. One great thing is the more we do this the better we get and the faster our ears tell the brain what is really heard. By that I mean not to search so much for the right notes but know them as we hear them.I saw in your example you jumping around for the notes, what I used to do and still at times do is slide up to the note. It's about ear training, the more we do it the better we get. Times I have been pulled away from playing daily in my life, as when I return there is always a period of retraining my ear. That's just how it is. Keep doing what your doing Jeff, I've been listening to your stuff for I dont know how many years.. Back into the 80's I think maybe more?

To train the ear is that you do this everyday over a variety of musical pieces. I do it whenever I listen to music and play along. After a few week or months the ear and your brain know where to go with what you hesr without searching around for the pitch. If I don't know the key I will just do a slide up on any string and I will hit the tonic or root of any key, then the rest becomes pretty automatic. If the piece is very complex then I might slow it down and break it into sections. Usually once I grasp the basics of a piece, I improvise my own take on it or do variations to find different ways in phrasing a piece and have fun with it. Do rounds of different variation you can come up with from your mind as you play. It cracks me up so much when I find a variation, and doing this with other musicians is so fun case we all start cracking up on each other's take or rendition. You'all know what I'm talking bout? Right? If you don't then keep on trying that ear and eventually come to this point where you can just litrally play about anything. To me that's the culmination of ear training. The problem is how long the ear retains this. For example if for some reason things happen in your life that you can't ear train daily. May be you can't play for a few weeks or a month or a year, ouch. When you come back you will see you you lose from where you were and have to bring it back in almost like starting over. At least that's what happens when I have had any breaks in my playing. The longer your away, the longer it takes to get back to where you were. Sometimes referred to "getting your chops back" I don't know who made that up using the word Chops? Anyone know?

Hi Jeff, love your vids. I played guitar my whole life and became adept at transcribing. It’s easy compared to bass which became my primary instrument 2 years ago. Bass transcribing can be HARD because it’s not as up front in the mix. I am looking for a vid you might have made about HEARING the bass line to transcribe. Bless you for all you do Jeff.
@normg2242

... hi Michael, in all the bands I ever played in, I found that no one ever expected me to copy the bass exactly. Rather you develop a library or a vocabulary of grooves and bass runs of your own and also a feeling for which music needs what kind of bass line. After all, that's what the guy on the original recording did too. When you get good at that, you only need a chord chart and you're cooking. All you do then is to groove away and carry the song your way. It's like a handwriting, each person has a different one, and a different way to play bass grooves, and that can make things much more interesting. Of course there are exceptions where the bass plays riffs that defines the song, but that's less common than just pumping away on a good, generic groove...
Thanks for this Jeff. I've been playing for decades. Learned all the theory, learned my instrument and learned "music" well enough to play out and enjoy playing my bass. Problem is, I feel like I've plateaued for a while. Deep down, I realize it's my ears or lack of them (it's much easier for me to read a piece of music (not tab) than learn it by ear). This has been great motivation to take the leap off the plateau and get to the next level. 15 minutes a day. Start now!

@lumpyjazz

Sure! You can slow down the music if you need to. The reason that none of us did in the old days is because the technology didn't exist. But, there was a benefit that came with this. As with my stance against metronomes and tuners, I found that the more that I was "confined" to music, ear, and instrument, the better I got as a musician, which really is the goal when you stop and think about it. Because we were forced to transcribe solos at real tempos, we developed a skill set that we might not have developed had we slowed down the music. But, here, I have to say that I might be wrong. I don't really know this for sure. Thus, my bottom line contribution is that the notes are Sacred and using your ear to figure them out will get you WAY, WAY FARTHER down the road to musical improvement. If you have to slow down the solos to find out what those notes are, then go for it and do it in peace. Nothing bad is taking place.
Intervals training is also essential to transcribe.
Should I describe solos and melodies of solo instruments on my bass first or bass lines too ? Or maby both ? What do you recommend Mr Berlin ? @Jeff Berlin Music Group ?
For making that there is the app « any tune » it’s really great for that Because we can make loop Thank’s a lot For this video You are really a Master and i’m a fan since a long time

Hi Jeff! you didn't mention if you already had the center key and mode spotted, do you do this going in, or do analyse it theoretically later on?
@lumpyjazz
6 жыл бұрын
Hi Cristian. I never regard key centers for anything that I play, nor do I analyze the solos. It is the doing and playing that seems to explain the deeper meaning of what the soloists were thinking when they played their solos. Certainly, analysis could happen, but this isn't something that got me deeper into the transcriptions that I wrote out. Also, I never regard modes as they aren't anymore significant a point of theory/harmony as any other point of learning is.
Excellent, what's song is?
