Jazz Phrasing - This is What You Want to Know

Jazz Phrasing is a difficult topic to learn. You problably know the feeling of trying to come up or with lines and then even though you know the notes are right it is impossible to get it to sound like jazz phrasing. In this jazz phrasing guitar lesson I am going to show you some things that you need to be aware of when trying to come up with lines and which will help you jazz phrasing really a lot. One thing that is really interesting about this is that it is actually possible to write jazz licks that really are not possible to phrase well. This is about how you play the notes and a little about which notes you play, and for me it was really a huge part of getting my bop lines to sound good.
