pat metheny seminario

simply beautiful music!

si riesce a malapena a capire quanto è grande!!

there is some direction to it, he's arpeggiating his way through the changes and then in intervals and then mixing it all up creatively. the same way that an athlete would spend time studying the track they were about to race. gotta know all your paths before you can be free to wander around freely and without fear of getting lost!

It is only a scale exercise in high speed. No direction. he only plays what comes in his head.

he has a lot of music informacion on his head, he can mix sacles while he is playing, he is one of the best guistarrists in the world i think , because of his capacity of composition

Best contemporary guitarist

Did you notice that these ideas don't really come up in his solos often? He's a great soloist partly because he never sounds like he's tossing out well rehearsed harmonic devices in advance. I've been trying to get Slonimsky vocabulary into my solos for a while, but it isn't easy to work things in without it sounding stiff or contrived.

can any one please translate what he says in this video into english?

play fucking scales

He does
