Scott Henderson - Jazz-Rock Mastery

Scott Henderson Jazz-Rock Mastery download DVD. Scott Henderson studied arranging and composition at Florida Atlantic University and later studied at the Guitar Institute of Technology (G.I.T.) in Hollywood, California where he is presently an instructor. In Jazz Rock Mastery, Scott reveals his unique approach to improvising. You'll learn how to solo over major, pentatonic, melodic minor, diminished, and whole-tone scales, along with modern uses for arpeggios and triads all in the context of melodic and rhythmic phrasing. Melodic phrasing nails the hard to teach subject of improvisational phrasing. Includes printable companion booklet. Scott Henderson teaches various musical techniques associated with jazz-rock and fusion guitar playing in this instructional program. Henderson demonstrates how to improvise over a variety of scales, incorporate broken chords in a melodic section, and much more!
Seriously, the information in this single DVD will give you enough stuff to transform your soloing immediately and provide fodder for years of practicing going forward. The information packed into this video is more than you would pick up otherwise jamming and gigging for a decade.
Mr. Henderson revels how scales relate to chords in a systematic and though manner that will give the tools to unlock your ability to play modern chord progressions. The section of the DVD devoted to phrasing is brilliant - a must have if you want to avoid the stream of eights-notes saying nothing that is so easy to fall into. It will take some studying on your part and good deal of sheading before you can make this material 'yours' but it is such a valuable tool I cannot imagine a cheaper and easier way to get from point A to B.
Scott a wonderful guitarist, educator, and super cool person.
