BLOWING ON THE BLUES-PART ONE / Jazz Tactics #2
The blues is a typical starting point for jazz improvisers, yet remains a foundational element of the music. In the first of four episodes focused on improvising on the blues, I explain the basic blues form and offers ideas for melodic approaches using the minor pentatonic and blues scales.
ABOUT THIS SERIES
The Jazz Tactics series explores elements of playing jazz music, especially improvisation, based on my book of the same name and a university course that I’ve taught for over thirty years. The sequential videos in this series will provide a solid foundation of understanding of the principles and practices of jazz improvisation.
