Anyone have a transcription of Joscho's descending lines turnaround over the last 8 bars between 28-31 seconds in the video clip? Cheers Phil

you may look for a Bireli transcription as that is often the lines he uses on Hungaria.

Is that one of Django's well used devices? @Wim Glenn posted his transcription from After you've Gone some time ago

and I think this is the same idea, just from listening to it.

Great work Wim, lots of useful stuff on your channel.

Thanks!

Those licks above (on Wim's site are ascending and the one here (Joscho) is descending. I have seen it played a few ways but his way may be the simplest.

it is simply a Cmaj to a C minor to a G Major to a Bb minor with a chromatic melody on top matching the chords as they descend.

Love that ending. Too bad Joscho isn't having any fun. 😂 Love the interaction between them ~3:10 after Joscho does those chord stabs.
