The Comping Expo - It's Finally Here!
While guitarists spend much time improving their improvising skills,
for the majority of time, they must also fill the role of supporting other
instrumentalists or vocalists on the bandstand. In response to numerous
requests, this DVD focuses entirely on Robert’s approach to comping.
Before the existence of computers and DVDs, aspiring jazz musicians
continuously honed their skills by Watching a performance,
Listening to recordings, then employing their best efforts to recall
and Duplicate what they saw or heard. Certainly not an easy process.
However, as well documented, that learning process served very well for
the early greats such as, Christian, Montgomery et al.
This DVD is presented in a manner that allows you to Watch and Listen to
a variety of real world excerpts of concert video and CD performances.
More importantly, the printed transcriptions of all chord forms permit you
to bypass the tedious task of trying to determine what chord was played–
thereby allowing you to easily Watch, Listen and Duplicate all the data
necessary to dramatically increase your comping skill.
Continuing the approach that has made him the foremost jazz guitar
educator on the international scene today, Robert teaches every
facet of playing jazz guitar at the application and performance level,
i.e. he utilizes actual song structures to deliver immediately useful
“take it to the gig tonight” ideas. From intermediate to professional
level, this DVD will breathe excitement into your comping skills with a
truckload of creative and exciting ideas. The result producing efficiency of
the Conti Approach is clearly evidenced by the demand for thirty DVDs in
the last six years from students in every corner of the globe.
In this 4 hour DVD and printed booklet, Conti teaches you to comp over a
variety of songs and playing styles. Continuing his signature approach in
each of his DVD releases, he holds nothing back from the student viewer.
