  • So helpful.

    This is exactly what I needed. Lectures are so crisp and thoughtfully constructed. Finally an instructor who is not only a jazz performer but an actual teacher — a communicator who can still see these subjects through the eyes of a student. Thanks a million!! Started from the beginning and working my way through.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

A Beautiful Friendship, Improvisation
Q: What's the difference between improvising with chord tones and scales?
There is no difference; both require an extensive rhythmic vocabulary and balance of movement for effective improvisation.
A Beautiful Friendship, Harmonic Analysis
Q: What is the best and most effective way to approach studying and practicing harmony?
The best approach is to understand harmony as the sound of two or more notes played together, seeing harmony, arpeggios, and scales as interconnected. Practicing should also incorporate melody, as they are the same thing in different forms.
A Beautiful Friendship, Melodic Analysis
Q: How much should I practice each day?
Practice should be driven by specific objectives, not just time. Once you complete your practice objective, you can stop, regardless of how long it takes.
Tangerine, Melodic Analysis
Q: How do I break out of playing the melody exactly as written after years of training of playing the melody exactly as written?
Begin by listening to jazz a lot to develop idiomatic feelings for it; your interpretation should still be recognizable as the tune.
Tangerine, Harmonic Analysis
Q: How do I voice chords so they sound smooth and connected?
Focus on harmonic motion patterns to develop muscle memory, practicing over the 2-5-1 progression to connect chords smoothly.
