Check out my Patreon page! My name is Jens Larsen, a Danish Jazz Guitarist and Educator. The videos on this channel will help you explore and enjoy Jazz. Some of them teach you how to play jazz guitar, but other videos focus on Music Theory, like Jazz Chords, or offer advice on practicing and learning Jazz on guitar or any other instrument. The videos are mostly jazz guitar lessons, music theory, song analysis, and videos on jazz guitars.
