 My dad was a jazz trumpet player from the Big Band Swing era. I can remember when I was a child hearing him whistling or scatting along with the melody of a tune on the radio. Very early I learned it was ok to do such a thing. Later I recognized that improvisational music, particularly jazz, was a language among participants. My approach in There Is No Such Thing As A Mistake is to share with you what I have learned on the bandstand, and how to use that information expediently. My goal is to cut to the chase in what I call Bandstand Theory.There Is No Such Thing As A Mistake will walk you through basic improvisational theory with exercises and demonstrations. |
