Hi Guys this is the second lesson of a series called Comping 101 where I will cover a lot of the secret of this refined art.
This month I will cover some basic Ideas for learning chords progression so that you'll never forget them!

These two masters mostly appear on a big stage for a big concert. Here they play for a small audience in a small, relaxed setting.

It's been a while since I've had time to post anything, since the 7 weeks of bebop really. I think it's a cool idea to do a similar thing with ballads.

In anticipation, here's a take on one of my favourite ballads. This is sorta where I'm at with solo playing on a ballad these days.

October 1st, 2016 is the second installment of The Friedman Sessions - the live streaming music series offering viewers an intimate look into the world of jazz vibraphonist David Friedman, as he invites other distinguished musicians to explore the art of improvisation through jam sessions and spontaneous collaborations direct to you from his home studio in Berlin, Germany. For this episode of The Friedman Sessions, we have the honor of having with us virtuoso saxophonist, composer, and bandleader Peter Weniger.

Hi Folks,
Realize it's nothing new, but I wanted to do another lesson revisiting ideas for playing turnarounds. If you are really strong at this it'll help you in so many contexts.

This is the current etude I have been working on in my lessons.
