In this lesson we will explore right hand comping voicings and technique to accompany our own solos or a solo of someone else.
We incorporate all of the theory and material covered in the prior lessons in this course and then analyse each aspect of the performance.
In this 5 minute masterclass we will look at how a pair of triads can define any mode and become a strong sound for improvising and comping.
Spend some time to work these chords and progressions, and once you feel comfortable you can move onto the main 32 bar form of the tune.
In this 5 minute masterclass we will explore the key principles for creating elegant, efficient, & ergonomic chord voicings.
In this 5 minute masterclass we will explore how we can use triads as a way to create improvised melodies and whole improvised solos.
We first learn the note names, then intervals, and then we learn the triad which is the most basic building block of harmony.
We will work on our recognition of major 9th, minor 9th, & dominant 13th rootless voicings using a left hand stride drill.
These lessons will prepare you for playing in a jazz band so that you know what to expect, and what is expected of you. Learn to comp and take a solo!
We use the minor blues progression to explore pentatonic, blues scale, and modal improvisation. We apply these concepts to the famous tune “Mr P.C.”
