Find Your Unique Jazz Sound with One Simple Method

Описание: Does your jazz guitar playing sound stiff? Do you feel like you're just reading notes rather than telling a story? In this video, I break down the single biggest reason why adult learners struggle to find their own sound—and the simple method you can use to fix it today.

We often get stuck trying to play the melody "correctly," but real jazz is about interpretation. I’ll show you exactly how to take a written melody and transform it into something that swings, using a concept I learned from the legendary organist Joey DeFrancesco.

You don't need more complex theory. You need permission to play what you hear.
In this lesson, you’ll learn:
---Why "playing it right" is often wrong in jazz.
---How to use rhythm and space to make a simple melody sound professional.
---The "Written vs. Played" mindset shift that changes everything.
---How to apply these phrasing techniques to your own playing immediately.
