Description

The time-tested and acknowledged pathway to become a skilled improvisor is to play your instrument at every jam session or other opportunity that becomes available. That’s exactly how the early greats learned their craft, simply by playing jazz, not wasting time talking about modes, scales or unimportant activities that prevented them from actually playing their instruments. As seen in 25 prior DVDs, the core success of the Robert Conti approach is his ability to teach the jazz language (improv) at the street level, where it actually began.

If you’re an entry level jazz guitarist such as a blues or rock player trying to make the crossover to jazz, Ticket To Improv will take you on one of most exciting and productive musical events of your life. Very soon, you will be impressing your friends with your new playing skills.

As in each of his learning products, once again, Conti delivers another “Motherlode!” How? By teaching you exactly how to start playing an arsenal of lines over the chord progressions to three “must know” tunes that are played in every real life jam session. More importantly, after you learn the first three tunes, he will also teach you how to quickly begin reshaping those lines for usage in other tunes.

Dear Robert Conti Team. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to provide feedback. It‘s only a few weeks that I‘ve started with the course, but I like it very much. For the first time with jazz courses, I have the impression of making music, playing jazz - despite my small talent - and that‘s a lot ...

The Ticket to Improv Volume One is without a doubt, the best product on the market to get the beginning improviser up and playing in record time. Mr. Conti has a relaxed style of presenting the material and if the viewer follows the detailed lessons and associated explanations, they will soon be out...

The lessons are great fun and well-suited to my ability. I practice 3-plus hours every day on both Robert Conti's lessons and the material I get from my guitar instructor, who has been impressed with the development of my chord vocabulary. All credit goes to Mr. Conti and the "Here's That Rainy Day...

I've been playing guitar for 20+ years and now have a new found enthusiasm for the instrument that rivals the day I got my first guitar. You know, when you strummed your first chord and fell in love. Both Volume 1 & 2 of this series is so awesome, I can not put into words how much I appreciate what ...

I've been trying to learn jazz on guitar and have spent a lot of money with the scales and modes garbage. Go to a lesson and my teacher tells me to use D Dorian here - that approach just doesn't work. I ordered Ticket To Improv Volume 2, but haven't started it yet as I'm still finishing memorizing t...

Just wanted to thank you for a great job on Ticket to Improv Vol 1- it is just what I wanted and of course as you know, it works. I teach drawing and other arts and if students would follow the Conti method of play first, theory second, the work would be so much better and they would know what quest...

I'm a new player at the age of 53 and I am able to play things I thought would take me years to learn. Thank You and the folks at Pinnacle Group who have been...

Robert, thank you so much for teaching this. I just finished my first jazz guitar lesson, the free A-Train lesson on this site. I've been playing the guitar for 30 years but never found anyone to teach me jazz. I just played my first jazz licks! WOOHOO! Thank you so much. I can't wait to go through ...

I received the "Ticket To Improv" DVD a few days ago. I have invested a lot of money thru the years on guitar lessons and nothing worked, until I got your DVD, and it is wonderful. I cant wait until I have the time to sit and learn from the master. Since I'm 72 years young, I'm sure you can teach an...
