🚨 New Series Alert – Play A Great Rhythm Changes In 3 Months

Over the past few months, we worked through Play A Great Blues In 3 Months, building a complete approach to the blues through comping, guide tones, lines, vocabulary, melodies, and chord melody.

Now it's time for the next challenge:

👉 Rhythm Changes

If the blues is one of the foundational forms in jazz, rhythm changes is the next major milestone.

From the New York Times;

A judge in Washington on Friday tossed a lawsuit filed by the John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts against a jazz musician who canceled a performance at the venue’s annual Christmas Eve concert last year after the center’s board added President Trump’s name to the building.

In case you haven't seen this yet, you MUST watch it! 

Hello everyone! I'm pleased to share my senior recital performance from April! This month, I graduated with my undergrad from Boyer College of Music and Dance at Temple University with a major in Jazz Performance for vibraphone and a minor in Public Relations! I want to say a big thank you to Tony Miceli, who was my teacher/mentor throughout my 4 years and beyond! Thanks for telling me about Temple and making me fall in love with the city of Philadelphia! Below is the program, and I hope you enjoy watching:) 

Here's my version. Where is yours! 

I will do a chord melody and either post it here, or as a separate post.
