Some of the most impressive chord work I've seen, it's amazing. You're very talented! In a jazz context, it sounds a lot more bog-standard though, I like using these sparingly in pop/rock contexts like a prog/experimental kinda sound, it makes them stand out a lot more and seem a lot more special and awe-inspiring when used alongside more 'normal' chords/voicings/song contexts. Just a little subjective 'style' critique as everything else is flawlessly perfect!

For me it’s fine that you take time to do this videos, because each one takes around 20 years to really absorb all the info and apply it as clean and musically as you do, sometimes I forget you’ve played guitar for 120 years 😅

That’s how it seems when someone has fully internalized things to the point where they don’t have to think about what they’re playing. The first time I saw a video of the Punch Brothers playing live I assumed they were all vampires. (Thile turned the rest of them so his powers are stronger) 😊

Discovering the music of Bill Frisell as a teenager made me a lover of clusters. IN Line had just come out and I read about him in a guitar magazine and the writer was forced to be poetic in order to describe the music. It was a couple more years before I actually heard Frisell, but my imagination was sparked by descriptions of his playing. I was like: I want to use chord fragments and dissonant clusters... whatever that means. When I finally heard him, I was very happy to find that the writers description and my imagination had come pretty close to the real thing. Great playing btw. I love it when I innocently open a guitar lesson video and I'm confronted with a true artist. It comes through in every note you play. Thanks for the video.

@egorerofeev7762 Жыл бұрын
Quality and scale of your work is really amazing. Very generous of you to share it in this way. This video reminded me of a concept I enjoy that is somewhat related. It utilizes three consecutive diatonic notes. For example A, B, C on the high e string. You then drop B and C down an octave to 3rd and 2nd string respectively. That way you get a pretty three note voicing consisting of a halftone cluster and a minor seventh up top, which is itself an inverted whole tone cluster. Next you can do the same for B, C, D; C, D, E etc.. Using diatonic C major scale you'll get three fingerings, one for each note combination ( W-H, H-W, W-W). While any note from C major functions as a bass you can play any of these voicings over it getting various chord tones and extensions. It's really fun to play them horizontally up and down the scale on the higher strings (middle strings fingerings are a bit tricky and sound darker). After a bit of practice these voicings are really easy to incorporate in ones playing, both melodically and harmonically. Hope this will be useful for someone :)
