Adding Guitar to the Jazz Rhythm Section and Coordinating Comping with the Piano. This video is coordinated to Chapter 17 in my book, The Real Jazz Pedagogy Book (available as a hard copy at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Outskirts Press and available as a digital copy at Barnes and Noble as Nook, The Apple Store iPad/iPhone version, and Outskirts Press as a digital copy).

What a video! Not only the content but the beautiful interaction in the group. This also shows how much a competent teacher can add on top of the "main content that could be read" as so many of my students ask for now. This video really shows the meaning of face to face learning.

Excellent demonstration! Really shows how different instruments can collide with each other.

Piano players believe they should be the 'active comper' 99.9% of the time.

In my experience, comping with the piano player is to lay back. See what he's doing. Find a pocket to fit into and follow it.

He should know better and provide the guitarist with a tabs arrangement. Most young guitarists don’t learn to read music well.

we'll maybe we should. Though the tabs would make it so much easier...

Absolutely! It’s quite shameful on the instructor/program for such a bull-headed approach. At his age, he knows how the guitar industry dominated many kids bedroom with rock and roll and popular music for the past 5 decades. Most guitar players don’t read music nor do they even know the notes on their instrument akin to others. While they ought to learn, it’s not practical for putting the guitarist in this spot for the ensemble, especially a kid, and it’s very clearly wasting everyone’s time, and it’s not the guitarists fault- he was bred in a culture that doesn’t emphasize notation reading on his instrument. And with the availability of software and even AI tools, there is no excuse for not being able to provide tabular notation for the guitarist. It takes more work on the instructor/program, but that’s THEIR job.
