Would you like to add some DADGAD jazz spice to your repertoire? In this lesson, Sandy Shalk teaches five popular jazz standards in DADGAD. Tunes by legendary jazz artists: Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, Paul Desmond and David Brubeck including God Bless the Child, Blue Monk, Take Five, Round Midnight, and All Blues. These five tunes are arranged in DADGAD to enhance your performance repertoire with all-time great jazz standards.

Each tune is performed, taught phrase by phrase, and played slowly in a split screen so you can follow the movement of each hand. Additionally, background information is added for each tune as well as a discussion of how the DADGAD tuning is very adaptable for arranging jazz voicings.

A tab/music booklet is included as a PDF file on the DVD featuring each of the five arrangements. Many thanks to El McMeen for helping to put this together. Fingerstyle jazz guitar in DADGAD is still largely uncharted territory. This tuning has been typically associated with Celtic music. Welcome now, to the DADGAD jazz journey!
