Thanks for checking the video out! I wasn't able to go into all 50 because the video would've been so long. If you want me to go deeper into this topic, let me know what you'd like to see in a part 2!

Excellent explanation brother! Excited to see more of your system explored.

Very well thought-out and exciting video! Thanks for the effort to put this all down.

I’m so stoked to join this community thing … I am definitely beginner and the fact you have taken the time to construct a way to build off and keep learning while using other concepts is huge!!! Any instructions I’ve had in the past just made me feel dumb and completely incapable of jazz. Thanks for this

Really like the structured pareto format and your approach. Just purchased your "Master Dominant Bebop..." Thank you, this is great !!

Stoked for the jazz community!

Thank you, very interesting approach of learning standards 👍😎

Very interesting concept, and a really clever way to organize everything! I have to say that Im a believer in working really hard on whatever favourite standard with the basis of learning good versions by ear. Im also sceptical towards organizing tunes solely on the chordal material as there are so many other qualites in melody, rhythmic style, tempo and so on. Also, most importantly the factor which decides what tune to work on should be the ones that are most common in your area. This being said, I think this organization can be really good for a lot of people, and I will certainly go back and fill some holes myself:)

Excel approach is perfectly valid, and the results are interesting. Thanks for putting in the effort.

awesome content, love it!

Great! If i had heard of this concept while starting up! The main problem I had when I started out, was being overwhelmed with all the scales and arpeggios you thought you needed to play jazz, all that said, the result of that overwhelm (20 years later) was that I´m still learning my scales and arpeggios, not to say I always believed I was bad for jazz and leave it aside. Now i think the language and the feel is far more important, so starting to learn with a limited language chordwise and building up, while you are playing songs is a really smart idea. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and definitely I would like a part 2!

17:51 Great nerd work Chase. I feel every cell of this spreadsheet. Be interesting for you to look back on in the next 2, 3 or 4 decades. Good luck with everything this throws up for you.

As an intermediate player, as I was watching I was going back and forth in my mind whether this approach is “right”. But I reminded myself of how I felt in my first year in jazz school and how daunting it was to see so many chords moving so fast even on what today I consider simple standards. Modal jazz is definitely more beginner friendly and back then I wished my teachers would ask me to learn those (I loved Kind of Blue back then - still do). Instead I was in an ensemble group where we played Solar, There is no greater love, Just friends and other tunes that feel easy now but were really hard and confusing back then. Long way to say that I like this approach!

Thank you! :D

Great idea, really interesting and useful. It would be interesting to see something like this for Gypsy jazz.

Want to see part 2, greetings from Colombia 👏🏽

Chase, your approach is simply ingenious!!! Extraordinary!!!

@ 1:55 that is THE main issue I believe most struggle with (i.e. how to apply what we know in different keys); For example, you Jazz Master Lines are fantastic. But I have applied the lines in C major and used them in different keys to avoid learning more and more lines; So this system you mention about Standards is so important and useful. Another idea...can this same type of "system" be used/applied to lines and arpeggios so we can adapt and use in different keys? This was a GREAT discussion Chase and we appreciate your content! Take care!

This is incredibly useful stuff! Where can we have the list?

Great idea. Would work with many different styles of music.

Actually, I think this is kinda brilliant - in a, "D'oh, why didn't I think of that?" kind of way. Lol of course, the drawback is in how mathematical it is (the Giant Steps exception being a great example), but it sounds like you're doing a great job of taking some of those other variables into account. And at the end of the day, if knowing standards is the goal, as opposed to the order of them, then any order you learn them in that helps speed up and simplify the process seems like a win to me!

Super stocked for the jazz guitar community, I'm someone how matches your idea of what beginner/ intermediate player, having played for 15years plus but just getting in to jazz now. So definitely need to work on vocabulary and language, since I got scales down. Really like the idea of working through the different level, learn bits and pieces along the way.

This is an interesting concept, and I appreciate your desire to help students learn more easily what other curricula make daunting. Most of all, I appreciate you inviting a discussion on this, because I think this whole video is super valuable food for thought. That being said, I don’t agree with how often you use the word “objective” throughout this video, because this is not an “objective” or “best” way to teach just because it involves numbers. Your decision to focus on number of distinct chord names is a subjective one, and there are other ways of learning jazz that prioritize other skills that necessitate a different order. Ultimately, there’s no substitute for an individualized lesson plan developed in partnership between student and teacher; because there’s no objective best list (because different students have different needs and priorities), the best ones use subjectivity to their advantage.

Where can I find this list? I am a beginner jazz pianist and got this video recommended by someone on reddit. Thank you!

I find this awesome, but it’s also frustrating that this video was released without the list publicly available.

I do not think the challenge is always "too many chords." A lot of the chords in many standards are extensions and variations of known crords. Now, progressions and movign between keys is quite another story.

Do I just have to subscribe to the channel to get the list when you publish it?

Can I just get the list?

Where can we access the list?

Musicians! Pay attention! This is the good stuff that no one will ever teach you! Remember, when you are learning a new tune it helps to know what the tune SOUNDS LIKE! Listen to Frank sing it listen to Joe Pass play it listen to Tony Bennett sing now you know what it sounds like 👍!

It would be awesome if the list was made available to non guitarists haha.

Didn’t you have a different video with a different list? I copied the list but not cannot find the video now to show a friend…

about 13 minutes into this I began to think this is an ad

the programs are so short

This is made for extreme beginners? Because I dont see the point in the system. If you know what Am7 is on the guitar....then you kinda know it in all keys ?
