You are truly and exceptionally gifted teach Chritiaaan.  Love from Australia.

I subscribed Christiaan immediately after I watched this. I've played guitar for 25 years but there's so much too learn still, especially when exploring new genres. I can tell right away that this guy addresses specifically those very important details that make the difference in mastering how to get the sound on point. Thank you so much for sharing!

For me I like a rhythm guitarist to do two things. Firstly I like them to be constantly adjusting their dynamics in response to what they hear, so not someone who uses playalongs during most of their practice as they often allow their dynamics to flatten completely...... that can be OK for a little while but the effect is often like dancing with a partner who will not look at you or hold your hand, same as a playalong. Secondly I like when they can play on their own and respond to their own harmonic narrative, not only placing each chord in response to the emotional possibility of a progression but also connecting those chords with a dynamic flow, like a roller coaster or maybe just a Gondola on warm, mild and still day . If someone can truly play a large, say eight bar, structure on one static chord playing only on the beat but taking me on a journey such that I am fascinated by how they will play that eight bar structure on the tenth repeat then I'd like to keep listening until the flow of melody that it compels demands to be played and I can do that sometimes with confidence if they keep holding my hand. If I am playing on my own then the audience is the rhythm guitar and I need to reach out to them carefully and that my friend is very hard kind of listening for it is easy to give them what they want and not what is needed. I'm terrible at just playing along.

Erg fijne uitleg Christiaan.
Dank je wel! Meteen geïnspireerd om te gaan spelen.

Meteen gesubscribed. :-)

I play the guitar but not gipsy jazz, this was still very enlightening to watch ! Thanks mate, just subscribed, keep it up

Excellent advice and information. Thank you!

I have been. Great lesson and teaching.

Excellent commentary!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hitting the high strings also gets un the way of the sonic frequency of the high strings for the solo player. The solo should have the space to add the colour.  ( sp. NB I'm from Canada).

This was great, really specific learning points. Thank you!

I miss the important right hand technique.

Very very good information. I highly recommend this

Very detailed, specific and clear explanation. I'll find this very useful Christian!
Cheers from Spain!

I know how to do that embellishment now when you change chords. I like it but will endeavour not to overdo it. Cheers.

Unfortunately I can only give this one thumbs up, it deserves more.👍
