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.

Jens Larsen, Your videos always brighten my day, so I subscribed!
-
yes Jens again good explanation , as a doctor is great and good for me to follow your lessons, because body mind and fingers ect.comes to harmony.have a nice dayđ
-
You are the gamechanger Maestro! You have the gift to explain in a very practical and simple way things that seems so complicated that the 99.9% of teachers complicate them more! God bless you! I hope to have the opportunity in the future to know you, see you live and maybe study with you!

Thanks for this! You've shown me more ways to use the triads I already love. Nothing has helped me understand music and guitar more than triads.
-
Fantastically useful information! Thanks Jens
-
@JensLarsen This is a brilliant lesson! It unlocks easily understandable ways to access altered, diminished, and outside sounds â and to apply them musically. I love it when you sidestep away from Bebop basics, stop talking about Barry Harris, and demystify more-modern tonalities. Very grateful

Keep these lessons coming Jens........your teaching style gives clarity to the subject ...

Thanks!

Amazing video. Thanks

Thanks Jens ! There's a lotta good stuff here. I personally prefer to practice Triad Shapes in Position because I can remember them better. This way, it is easier for me (in Real time) to play their Inversions as well. I get better flow. I do make sure to not forget which Diatonic Scale Degrees surround the triad tones. Of course, the amount of diatonic scale tones surrounding the triad tones may vary depending on what Chromatic Tools I want to use to decorate the Triad. I do practice triads in the scale too because that helps everything as well. It's all connected. I like Triads for SO many reasons - but mainly because they help me ORIENT (Yay !!) where I am on the fretboard and in the Music. I hardly get lost now - that's a great feeling !! The neighbours have stopped banging on my front door with an empty saucepan. :eyes-pink-heart-shape:đŤ

Great video Jens
-
excellent!

This is so advanced but I like to start it over .. trying to think better about it.

Hi there Sensei of the axe đ¸, Your lesson reminds me of a book/approach by David Becker: âGet your playing into shapeâ! Do u know it? He emphasizes the importance of triadic shapes to make your lines melodic and how triads run through scales like character traits run through families ! Enough rambling on my part; I gotta go PRACTICE đđżââď¸đđŤĄ!

Hey Jens, I took your advice & learned Parker playing Billie's Bounce, Now's The Time, Au Privave to develop Jazz-Blues Vocab. It's feeling much more natural already! Thank you. I wonder if you could suggest some easy solos to learn? I watched your video where you suggest: Chitlins Con Carne - Burrell; Grand Slam - Christian; Cool Blues - Green; Four on Six - Montgomery; Borgia Stick - Benson. I've started working on these & they sound great! Can you suggest any other albums or players or tunes that you'd give to students to develop their vocabulary and soloing after doing the above? Thanks

Great video. Hey, Jens... which guitar that you own is your #1 favorite?

Great lesson Jens. One question please: Whats the theory behind the Db triad working over the Galt in the ii V i - I see it's the Dom5 chord, but not sure how to explain to myself. Thanks for great work as usual
