The SECRET to playing OUTSIDE the CHANGES: NOT what you EXPECT...

An introduction to playing 'Outside' the standard chord changes on standard jazz tunes.
This is a huge subject, and one that I have been fascinated with since getting into jazz guitar near three decades ago. At first I had limited success, as you will hear in the video!
It took many years of trial and error before I realised what it was that was holding me back from capturing the sounds I was hearing from my favourite players.
Hopefully, with the information I've shared in this lesson, you'll be able to master the art of playing 'Outside the Changes' a lot more quickly than I was able to.
Examples given in this lesson are using Major Triads & Pentatonics to access 'Outside' sounds. But these same concepts can be applied to Minor Triads & Pentatonic, Four-Part Chords, and so forth.
[I'm happy to go into more detail on this in future lessons - let me know in the comments]
Special thanks to Duncan Allan who was behind the camera on the skateboarding clips.
As always, thanks for supporting the Music Magus channel, and all the best with your music.

Thx. You make it sound good, I learned something here. Q: You're Australian, right? Does it have a big jazz culture? I thought it's all American.

Glad to hear that! I'm from New Zealand, although I lived in Aus for a long time. America's definitely the birth place of jazz, but there's jazz scenes scattered all over the world.
