Here's a chord study for the tune 'My Romance'. I talk and demonstrate and I've posted some voicings to check out and use with the exercises I talk about.
hey guys. i was 5 days off the army and i thought it will be great if i practise these days.i practised chord solo and simple bebop lines(this is something i do for over 3 months)and i posted angel eyes-a part of my study
thanks
see you all soon
I was playing along with this recording. The head is really interesting, rhythmic and syncopated. Birds solo is so simple and cool, just makes the changes.
I've been playing along with the melody and the solo for a couple days, and then trying to take my own choruses and keep Bird's vocabulary if I can. It's not easy for me.
So give it a shot if you want. It should not be difficult to transcribe.
For all of the Philly/Tri-State members of this site, Dan Kleiman, a hugely gifted musician and co-leader of the group Siora along with singer/guitarist Phyllis Chapell, has suffered a massive stroke while apparently preparing to undergo treatments for lymphoma. The damage to his brain was caused by what his surgeon termed a "shower of clots." The damage to his brain apparently is irreparable, such that he would not have any quality of life. I also learned he may not survive the night. Please remember Dan, Phyllis and their families in your thoughts and prayers.
So Instead of going to G he puts what I call a pivot chord and modulates to Eb. I think of this as the Anti-Mack-The-Knife modulation. It fits with the melody and moves you to a new key seamlessly.
In this section we'll study different grips.
