On this website you´ll find video-streams of the Online-Masterclasses for Gypsyjazz-Guitar. This Online-Masterclass has been developed and recorded by Bertino Rodmann from his experience of his Modular Gypsyjazz Guitar LIVE-workshop series.
In this online-version of Bertino´s LIVE-Guitar-Workshop all nessesary basics of the style will be transmitted detailed and clearly structured for beginners of the style:
• the history of the style with lots of background-knowledge about the used instruments, strings, picks as well as
• an introduction into Rhythm-playing of the Swingrhythm "La Pompe"-with exercises and examples,
• the detailed explanation of soloing including all special picking-techniques, scales and arpeggios,
• as of solo-licks of famous Gypsyplayers such as Django Reinhardt, Stochelo Rosenberg, Lollo Meier, Romane and others
• and the more many tipps & tricks around for playing the style.

However, it is actually recommended to book the complete Online-Masterclass anyway because inside that all 10 modules are already included which thematically are build up on each other...
Important hint: the contents of the Modules of the "Online-Masterclass" are NOT the same or similar like the LIVE-workshop Modular Gypsyjazz Guitar offered by Bertino on this page! The LIVE-workshop is much more detailed and bares more content.
The Masterclass and the single-modules are offered in so called "Licences". The prices for single modules of the complete masterclass start at cheap 5,99 € for the a one day-access of a single-module with 1 or more videos (Premium-Licence) and limit up to 180.- € for the complete Masterclass for about 6 Month-access (Platinum-Licence) containing all Modules and Videos (all together more tahn 6 hours of material + downloads).

All of the 10 modules of the Online-Masterclass are offered as "Streaming-Videos" which often again are divided into serveral videos per module. To watch these videos you only need to have the free Flash-Plugin by Adobe. More detailed infos you´ll find in the FAQs -> Systemrequirements. Additional there is lots of staff-notations as well as TABs of all examples beeing provided for each module in a special download-are of each module.
With more than 6-hours of video-playing-time this very extensive Online-Masterclass is probably one of the most detailed Online-Lessons available on the Internet on the subject of Gypsyjazz / Jazz-Manouche (regrettably available yet only in german!).
As with the LIVE-Masterclass Modular Gypsyjazz Guitar by Bertino Rodmann at least 4-5 years experience of playing the guitar and a suitable instrument (acoustic steel string guitar or Selmer copy/Jazz guitar) is the main condition for the participation in these Online-Masterclasses.
