Ten Weeks of Django Reinhardt: Fishin' with Django!
(Note this downloadable program is a past presentation that aired LIVE in 2021).
Hi, I’m Frank Vignola, and I invite you to join me on a ten-week survey of the music of Django Reinhardt in my latest Learning Club: Fishin’ With Django!
This Learning Club will be taking a close look at ten of Django’s most compelling compositions, using the songs to explore soloing, background figures, phrasing, rhythm guitar, swing rhythm and more.
The ten-week duration of the Club is an optimal amount of time in which to make a lot of improvement while having a lot of fun: It allows a sustained look at the material, and for you to develop it over a bit of time.
When you sign up, a link is provided with downloadable material for you to get ready for the weekly jams. You get pdf chord charts for each of the ten songs, and a short video lesson to show you how to play them. And, you receive sound recording files of each of the songs featuring me and a rhythm section playing a backing track so you can practice playing the melody and soloing with me.
Best of all, each of the ten weeks has a one-hour live Zoom jam session that I lead, where we play each of the ten songs, and then really focus on one of them, putting one song a week under the “microscope”. The session is recorded and a link with the recorded session is made available to all participants so you can view or download it to practice with during the week. By the time we finish the ten weeks, we will have played each of the songs many, many times, enjoying the confidence that can only come from deep familiarity.
I play a lot of rhythm so you can work on all the techniques you’ve been developing and take the songs to the next level.
Each week also features a breakdown of club member questions and answers about the material. (I do this separately, so as not to cut into the jam time!)
I am really, really excited about the new Guitar Club and about this new way of approaching guitar study. I hope to see you in the Jam Room at the Fishin’ with Django! Ten Weeks of Django Reinhardt Learning Club!
Chord progressions we will be covering during this Learning Club are: “Nuages”, “Tears”, “Swing 39”, “Swing 42”, “Swing 48”, “Diminishing Blackness”, “Blues for Ike”, “Troubland Bolero”, “Sweet Chorus”, and “Song D’Automne”.
