Welcome

Welcome to the exciting world of Jazz Essentials. I’m thrilled to have you join me on this musical journey. We’ve come a long way together, through GMG 1 & 2 – tackling Triads and arpeggios, unleashing creativity through the core elements and learning the art of voice leading. I’m so proud of the progress you’ve made so far.

Now, let’s take it to the next level. I invite you to embrace the beauty of drop2 voicings. These open sounds will bring your phrasing and comping to new heights and are sure to bring a smile to your face as you play. I’ll guide you every step of the way, showing you how to voice lead and apply them to various forms, such as blues, “All the things” and chord changes for “Stella By Starlight”. And the best part? We’ll explore the endless possibilities of combining elements like 7th arpeggios, scales, and movements to create breathtaking melodies.

I want to remind you that learning music is a language, and consistency is key to unlocking your full potential. So, let’s have fun with this course and embrace it with open arms. The journey you’ve embarked on with Galactic Molding Guitar has brought you to this point, where the Jazz Essentials will ignite a spark of inspiration within you.

I encourage you to maintain a consistent, daily practice that is filled with inspiration and happiness. Let’s unleash your inner creativity and experience the full glory of Galactic Modern Guitar together.

Wishing you all the best,

-Daniel
