Separate the Hands!
Submitted by tonymiceli on Sun, 11/28/2010 - 20:36
Here's a video I promised...... Who did I promise! Anyway more on the separating of the hands and playing. Totally inspired by watching David Friedman and listening to him at the workshops and listening to him.

Knock me out!
Hi Tony, that was great! Just what I needed to better understand the epic lesson. I wish I could download the audio and listen at work all day on my mp3 player, but it's worth not being able to do that to have a clear example of what your hands are doing.
Thanks a lot,
Bob

Tony this is one of the most informative lessons I have ever seen on the site, not only the playing but the whole concept, it is a goal of mine and I am sure of a lot of the vibers on the site to get to this level, this is where it all comes together. Thanks for posting this gem.

Problems with video
So I followed Stephen's advice (log out, quit browser, come back), but the video still won't play for me. Any ideas?

I agree with John.
I think you promised me, so thanks very much for this, I totally understand the idea now!
I guess it's less like a guitar, and more like a piano - soloing with right, comping with the left.
It's also a bit like a technique I've heard horn players talking about/using, where they trying and solo in a high register, whilst jumping back down to the low register to add in roots and guide tones.
lots to practise!
Thanks again
