Vol. 1 Girl From Ipanema

Price range: $13.95 through $19.95

Probably the most well known of all the bossa nova tunes, yet also one of the most difficult to improvise over – that is, unless you have Robert Conti guiding you effortlessly through the changes!

Description

Lesson solo over chord progression to: Girl From Ipanema

INCLUDED:

  • PDF Printable book of lesson solo, over chord progression to Girl From Ipanema, in notation & tablature
  • MIDI & MP3 files of single note solo & rhythm section

DVD Running Time: 1 Hour, 34 Minutes

Conti plays a pro level (more challenging than the Ticket To Improv series) solo over the chord changes to an in-demand jazz tune. Then, in his straight-forward approach, he teaches you to duplicate the entire solo, close-up, measure-by-measure, note-by-note. As documented by scores students in written testimonials, and their performance videos, you learn to play jazz, by playing jazz, not talking about modes or scales.

You must get the idea out of your head that you’re “just learning someone else’s solo.” When a child learns to speak, he/she emulates words that they have heard before. No one says to the child, “you’re just learning someone else’s words.” The child learns a word, then another word. The pattern continues until the child can speak in complete sentences (and without knowing the “theory” behind language.) As you develop your jazz vocabulary, you’ll soon reshape the ideas for applications over other tunes. These DVDs are for you if you’ve got serious chops, but don’t know what to do with them. If you practice modes and scales all the time, that’s what your solos will sound like – boring and uninteresting to say the least. Learn hip jazz lines, and have lots of fun doing it.

Worth the time and effort I put into learning the solo. Using Roberts fingering protocol helped me to navigate the fretboard and accomplish playing the many excellent phrases throughout the chart. This is my second completed solo and I'm working on the next solo for Rhythm Changes - Onward!

Back in 2017, I stumbled across Robert through one of his YouTube promos. One particular line that really grabbed my brain and threw it on the floor was a fast bebop-style enclosure over D9#11. I was able to figure it out what he was doing and have used it ever since; mostly as a speed exercise. Ge...

Believe it or not, for years I have been looking for a method like Robert Conti to learn from. I recently found out about it from Steve at Chord Melody. Thank you ...
