IN THE STYLE OF STOCHELO ROSENBERG Cat # HM0018 by Stochelo Rosenberg   Instructor: Stochelo Rosenberg Producer/Guitar: Denis Chang Design & Editing: Wayne Nakamura/HyperHip Translation: Denis Chang In 1989, The Rosenberg Trio released “Seresta”, a ground breaking album which served notice to the world that a new master of the jazz manouche guitar style had arrived. By mixing the music of Django Reinhardt with bebop, traditional gypsy waltzes, Latin jazz and many other influences, Stochelo and his band mates created a uniquely personal style of jazz manouche. Over the years, Stochelo has refined his technique to a highly efficient level. His speed is breath-taking to behold. Notes explode from his guitar. His ability to articulate notes cleanly adds to the illusion of speed. His vibrato is supple and his sense of time is impeccable. Watching Stochelo play helps the viewer to understand what is possible when technique is subservient to the music. Over 3 hrs of Instruction! Topics covered include: Producer Denis Chang’s concept for the “In the Style of…” series is well-suited for illustrating the basics, as well as, the finer points of the “Stochelo Rosenberg” style. The DVD is divided into two parts. In “The Songs”, Stochelo is accompanied by Denis as they demonstrate Stochelo’s style at slow, medium and fast tempos on 35 songs, in the Django style. The songs were selected to demonstrate all of the common chord changes in the contemporary jazz manouche repertoire. The second section is divided into two parts. “Rhythm Overview” is where Stochelo gives valuable insight into his approach to rhythm playing. Stochelo demonstrates good and bad rhythm as well as his approach to bossa, rumba, waltz, rumba-waltz and bolero rhythms. Proper chord shapes and sequences are shown for four songs. Finally in “Lead Guitar”, Stochelo deals with vibrato and right-hand technique before explaining his personal technique. He then clearly demonstrates 29 phrases and 2 endings. All phrases are initially played at tempo and are then clearly demonstrated for the viewer. This DVD follows the traditional gypsy method of instruction. No tab is provided and students are encouraged to learn by watching and repeating. Alternate close-up angles are provided for more in-depth analysis. Careful placement of chapter markers allows the viewer to repeat phrases precisely. The total running time for the DVD is over 3 hours.

Gypsy Waltzes Featuring STOCHELO ROSENBERG Cat # HM0019 by Stochelo Rosenberg   Instructor: Stochelo Rosenberg Producer/Guitar: Denis Chang Design & Editing: Wayne Nakamura/HyperHip Subtitles: Denis Chang Music Transcriptions: Denis Chang The Gypsy Waltz is a genre of music related to, yet separate from, Jazz Manouche. Django Reinhardt, the acknowledged master of Jazz Manouche, started his career in the bal-musette clubs of Paris before discovering jazz. Gypsy Waltz plays an important role in the Sinti community, into which both Django Reinhardt and Stochelo Rosenberg were born. Artists such as Baro Ferret, Matelot Ferret and Tchan Tchou Vidal, continued to develop the Gypsy Waltz as both notable performers and composers. Stochelo Rosenberg learned many of these waltzes at a very young age. His grandfather Latcheben Grünholz and his uncle Wasso Grünholz were revered as both players and composers. Stochelo continues to perform several of their compositions to this day. Topics covered include: In this DVD, Stochelo performs eight waltzes in the Jazz Manouche style. Accompanied by noted producer and performer, Denis Chang, Stochelo shows the technique required to perform these difficult pieces. Stochelo then demonstrates some of the more difficult phrases in these pieces at slower tempos. Printable musical notation and tablature are included on the DVD to assist the student. Songs performed include: • Dolores (Tchan Tchou Vidal) • Valse à Rosenberg (Stochelo Rosenberg) • Valse à Bamboula (Bamboula Ferret) • Latcheben (Latcheben Grünholz) • La Gitane (Tchan Tchou Vidal) • Wasso’s Waltz (Wasso Grünholz) • Valse à Wasso (Wasso Grünholz) • Gypsy Summer (Stochelo Rosenberg)

Mike Dowling: Improvising Hot Lead Solos DVD 90 min. Lesson Two: Improvising Hot Lead Solos Infectious syncopations , hot soloing , lush chords....nothing captures the spirit of jazz better than swing. Mike Dowling has it down cold , and on this follow-up to "Swing Guitar: Rhythm's Where It's At ," he has put together a perfect lesson for any player interested in lead soloing and improvisation. Mike"s clear instructional style is easy to follow , and you'll get great practice as you jam along with the rhythm parts he and David Hungate provide. Starting at the beginning , Mike uses "Mary had a Little Lamb" to demonstrate how you can create a swing tune out of just about anything. He explains how to use chord shapes to give you the basis for moving around the neck , and how to take a basic melody and embellish it with arpeggios , riffs , pedal tones and other improvisational devices. Before long , you'll be calling it "Mary had a Swingin'Little Lamb!" Mike gets further into the process with "C Jam Blues ," which teaches you to improvise around a short "riff ," or melodic passage in various positions on the fingerboard. He plays out the chord progression and then launches into some effective blues/jazz improvisations. A classic Hot Club riff leads you into Fats Waller's great swing standard "Honeysuckle Rose." Duke EllingtonÕs "It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain"t Got That Swing)" is a great vehicle for you to trade licks with Mike and Dave , and you'll learn how to play it anywhere on the fingerboard. "Raggin' It" moves through a typical ragtime progression with simple but effective ha rmonies that can work in any number of tunes. Finally , "Sweet Georgia Brown" wraps it all up with great chord changes , color tones , ragtime syncopations , and techniques that tie in all the elements you've learned on the lesson. Mike says that "true improvisation comes from a creative place deep in the player's imagination ," and on this video he gives you the tools you'll need to create and develop your own ideas , and swing along with the best of them.  

Lesson One: Rhythm"s Where It"s At! Here"s a fabulous guitar lesson that will give you all the tools you"ll need to become a great rhythm guitarist! Veteran player Mike Dowling demonstrates , clearly and simply , the techniques that put him in high demand as sideman for such legendary players as Joe Venuti , Jethro Burns and Vassar Clements. Using swing blues as a starting point , Mike covers the basics of chord substitution , rhythm vamps , 10th chords , diminished chords , jump-style syncopations and funky 9th chord blues. He takes a close look at the often-overlooked right hand and introduces the vocabulary of classic swing chords that are guaranteed to add punch and style to your playing. Mike spends a considerable amount of time on techniques that are designed to help you capture that elusive quality called "swing." He teaches "Sheik of Araby" and "Beaumont Rag ," and spends ample demonstration time taking the mystery out of the famous and important "Rhythm Changes." Ably assisted by renowned Nashville fiddler Buddy Spicher and acoustic bassist Chris Enghauser , Mike uses the trio format to showcase the power of rhythm guitar in an ensemble setting. In 1975 , master fiddler Vassar Clements heard Mike Dowling play swing guitar and hired him for his first touring band. Since then , Mike , who refined his technique under the tutelage of the great George Barnes , has gone from accomplished sideman and session player to solo artist and composer of amazing versatility. Mike"s Homespun video "Bottleneck Blues & Beyond" shows that he is an especially effective teacher as well as a superb guitarist. About Swing Guitar In 1932 , Duke Ellington recorded his classic , "It Don"t Mean A Thing If It Aint Got That Swing" and officially added a new word to the lexicon of American music. But jazz musicians had been swinging long before the style had a label and "swing" could just as easily have been used to describe the bounce that guitarists Lonnie Johnson and Eddie Lang captured a decade earlier when they recorded "Handful of Riffs." What makes music swing? Stated most simply , it"s the effect one gets by playing a basic four to the bar meter with accents on the 2nd and 4th beats. But more than that , it"s a feeling and when swing emerged as popular music in the 1930"s no instrument was better suited to express the feeling than a guitar. From rhythm giants like Freddie Green to the refined sounds of Charlie Christian or Oscar Moore; from Django"s Maccaferri to Oscar Aleman"s tri-cone or Eldon Shamblin"s Strat-in the right hands , nothing swings like a guitar.
