A sampling of performance and educational videos by jazz guitarist Robert Conti. His chord melody arrangements are a regular reader feature in the prestigious Just Jazz Guitar Magazine. To date, Robert Conti has created 27 successful DVDs for the aspiring jazz guitarist.
About Me:
If you've had your fill of theorists, gurus, philosophers, modologists,scale technicians, legends, confusion, institutions, theory godmothers, conservatories and delusion - then its time to discover the reasons why 30 DVDs from Robert Conti are at the forefront of jazz guitar learning resources.
At some point, every aspiring jazz player soon discovers it is essentially impossible to create great sounding pro-level improv lines out of modes and scales. The majority of guitarists would much rather be jamming with musicians, rather than being tortured by instructors who insist on teaching more modes, scales and endless theory.
As evidenced by endless customer and critic comments at Robert Conti.com, the cornerstone of the Conti approach is his ability and willingness to teach students to play jazz, by actually having the student play jazz from the start, not modes, scales and other useless nonsense. The core goal of every Conti learning product is to place meaningful new data under your fingers immediately, efficiently, and each time you turn a page or change chapters in a DVD.
The most compelling evidence of Conti's ability and his impact on jazz guitar education? Several guitarists who recently preached boring modes and scales, have now copied and in some cases, have blatantly advertised (as their own) Conti's well-known No Modes No Scales® trademark teaching approach that he has firmly maintained since 1966. However, make no mistake, as in all art, the copies always pale to the original.
Commentaries From Music Pros:
. . . These are effective teaching materials . . . Just when you thought that Contis products couldnt get any better, the introduction of DVD components to each of his Source Code series of books really raises the bar - again.
Mike Irish, Dir of Jazz Studies, MTU For Just Jazz Guitar Mag.
"As a touring guitarist doing clinics and master classes worldwide, I've noticed that a lot of players easily get stuck when learning modes and scales. Robert Conti offers an alternative teaching method based on his life long experience that is helping many guitarists get to the next level and learn the language of jazz guitar."
Andreas Oberg, Jazz Guitarist
"... Conti releases DVD Versions of his highly acclaimed Source Code series! Jazz enthusiasts are well aware of Robert Conti's original Source Code books, frequently referred to as the "holy grail of jazz guitar instruction. Conti has updated the books and now includes a DVD with each book - over 24 hours of new Source Code video instruction from the master himself..."
