Your First 5 Jazz Licks (Beginner’s Guide To Arpeggios)
For every beginner with Jazz it is is the same: Everywhere you look a Jazz teacher is telling you that you should practice arpeggios if you want to play Jazz, but it is just as important that you know how to turn that arpeggio into jazz licks into something you can play that also sounds like Jazz.
Why Barry Harris’ Approach Is So Much Better Than Bebop Scales!

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.

So powerful and clear. There are years of practice in this video ;). 😉
Very Clear and useful explanation!!! Thanks @Jenslarsen
Years worth of things to practice in this 8 minute video! Thanks Jens!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
I've been playing guitar (not jazz) for almost 40 years. I'm learning so much watching these videos! You are a great instructor! Thanks!
Great guitar lesson, cool way to look at making jazz licks..
Why he sound like Giorgio by Moroder
This is awesome stuff Jens… I can play all the arpeggios, but didnt know what to do with them! This gives me a basis to work from. ThankS!
Great Lesson!
This is a marvelously topical supplement to Jens' "Jazz Guitar Roadmap." It's easy to be consumed by YouTube "Learn Jazz" rabbit holes. I strongly recommend saving time and money by getting Jens' "Jazz Guitar Roadmap." Do that first and his "YouTube" videos will really resonate. Cheers!
hands down the best jazz teacher on the internet
I can’t explain how much you have helped me along expanding into jazz!
Jens. I am so thankful for your videos. You are keeping this dinosaur active and learning new things! Going to become a Patreon!
More than good lessons. I find Jens Larsen's videos inspire me to try harder, and learn more. I always find something in the video that I haven't tried, and that prompts me to work harder on my playing.
Thanis, Jens, for giving me this knowledge and inspiration!
Arpeggios are melodic, but they’re not melody. Arpeggio solos are difficult and, frankly, boring.
Ah, bless you, Jens!
I have great respect for those who can do a lot. But I have even greater respect for the way of working to make a lot out of a little.
God Bless You Jens. You’re an inspiration.
Dear Jens ! Thank you so much for this very rich Yt channel ! About this video, just on question about the BEST arpeggio exercise (3:12) : what if the tonality is in minor, should we adapt the same arpeggio exercise like this : A-7, B-7b5, CM7… etc ? Thank you !
Very helpful!
Thin guy is the very best! If you're a jazz beginner like me he is so great to listen to! Some stuff is way over my head but I ALWAYS get something out of his videos I can learn and then go back later for more!!! Fantastic playing and puts it at a level that even I can understand! I may not be able to play it yet, but I understand exactly what he is trying to teach! GREAT STUFF!!!
Good advice for a specific style of jazz
