Complete with Video Memos and Band-in-a-Box files, this package has everything you need to learn to play great Jazz Guitar comping phrases with voice leading and harmonized lines. Each phrase includes a video memo with award winning Jazz Guitarist, Oliver Gannon. Watch these videos over and over as Oliver describes and shows you exactly how he is playing each phrase. It's like having your Guitar teacher always on-call. Band-in-a-Box files each include a song memo describing the phrase and since they are Band-in-a-Box files you can open the Notation window to view the chord symbols, notation and Guitar tablature, adjust the tempo to match your skill level and quickly change the key signature to learn the phrases in all twelve keys. Open the Guitar Fretboard window to see exactly how the phrases are being played. These files were recorded with a MIDI Guitar controller so the displayed fingerings on the Guitar Fretboard window will be exactly how they were originally played.

The Windows version of this program can be used either as a stand-alone program featuring notation and video, or it can be used in conjunction with Band-in-a-Box. The Mac version requires Band-in-a-Box (version 12 or later) for full functionality - there is no stand-alone application.

Memo: This I-VI-II-V progression in a bossa nova tempo begins with a Cm7, to Am7b5 while mixing up some single lines with the chords. It then goes from a partial Gaug triad to a Db triad.

Memo: It begins with an EbMaj9, to an Ab913, then some thirds going from Eb to F, the we'll do a few little triads like a C7b9, a Bb triad, and Ab triad. Next we move on to an Eb triad to a Gm, Fm, Fm9 then the triad dominant substitution - this is an E triad going to an F# triad to the Eb.

Memo: This example is a I-IV-IIIm7b5-VI7-II-V-II-V that begins with a BbMaj7, then single string C to Bb, then Eb9#11, one single string note to Dm7b5, G7#9#5,some thirds going to Cm7, Dm7, Cm7, Cm11, Cm9 to F7b9.
