My name is Jens Larsen, Danish Jazz Guitarist, and Educator. The videos on this channel will help you explore and enjoy Jazz. Some of it is how to play jazz guitar, but other videos are more on Music Theory like Jazz Chords or advice on how to practice and learn Jazz, on guitar or any other instrument.

The videos are mostly jazz guitar lessons, but also music theory, analysis of songs and videos on jazz guitars.

  • I think Barry Harris method is great. Although, I am a newbie in saxophone playing, and I am in my 60s. I watched, Jens' explanation in a couple video about scale, and chords progression. I tried it out and it enable me to understand what a phrase and line is as beginner and I would really like to use it my practice.

  • Here's what I learned. The only correct notes you need for a solo is the first note, usually the tonic, and the last note usually also the tonic to resolve. All the other notes, whether the correct chord note or not either fits or is tension that is relieved within the next note or few notes. That way, if you hear a wrong note, it's actually just tension to be resolved with a chord note or a note within the key. The important thing is to stay with the rhythmic flow and make good phrasing. Scales are only important to keep you close to the key or the chord your on.

  • Too much kitchen that s why i m boring with jazz after a while.You practice an entire life to play similarly with hundreds others..For me the point in music is the melody the theme not the"endless" soloing.The most boring however in most of the jazz is the similarity in the sentimental element of the various pieces.It s always the same For example if you put Radioheads songs every song has its own sentimental status if you hear jazz ballads it's the same feeling every time It s at least annoying for me.However there are some jazz pieces that have outstanding melodic lines mostly the old ones (take 5 etc) but they are the minority.You need …to write a good melody VERY FEW can no matter how you practice..because practice is irrelevant with composing.

  • So after 45 years of playing flamenco then rock, blues, RnB, funk and folky finger picking I’ve always found jazz impossible to play. Yesterday after two years in retirement learning a lot of stuff about arpeggios, 251s, shell voicings, augmented chords etc from these videos and others I had the breakrgrough by doing exactly what Jens talks about here… applying it all to a SONG. The key for me was to try and play the vocal melody, chuck in shell chords wherever I can and then most importantly stop and try to do the exactly same notes in at least two other places on the guitar neck. I’m still unbelievably slow but it’s like a door just opened to the world of solo jazz guitar. Merry Christmas everyone…. Especially Jens ! No more directionless pentatonic based noodling for me…

  • I went to his workshop
    and he played a bebop tune in segments so that we could actually learn it right then and there so you played the melody and everybody repeated it. But I wonder how long it would take me to actually learn what he had mastered. I also play guitar and it was an enjoyable experience no doubt, but I think that people who went through his course are really good players the people that I know but he didn’t explain much. he was like a little alpha of a man which I added to his
