Bass Lines (Series) - Part 2 - Hands Separate -V

Chinese translation for Chinese students

這集我們要講如何練習bass line, 講一些練習的小方法。
當你演奏stride的風格時,(tony有介紹這個演奏方法,可以去搜尋影片)也是演奏四分音符節奏,
就跟bass line一樣,所以我們可以應用一些相同的idea。

小練習:

左手外棒,演奏四分音符。
右手可以即興演奏一些旋律。八分音符、十六分音符。

左手外棒,加上一些八分音符,
右手可以即興演奏一些旋律。八分音符、十六分音符都可以。

試著練習,看看會不會有什麼新的想法。

Quick Exercise

prepare 3 tunes and then turn on your recorder and do a concert. record the 3 tunes.

this is much better even than doing one tune. i'm doing it all the time now.

i think we should have a little online concert series. maybe some of you prepare a mini concert and we pick a weekend and post them!

i can't believe i didn't think of it before. think of all the things you work on!! going from tune to tune. the concentration.

ok for beginners you just do this. you play 3 heads in and record that. or one of the tunes you prepare a solo.

The Mancini Challenge

Here's the Mancini Challenge.

I have to learn these tunes for an online concert Sunday March 19 at 1pm. We're doing Mancini tunes. He writes a lot of slow and beautiful tunes. Here is a PDF of the tunes we are playing. You should check them out and listen to the originals online.

I have a fellow young musician who thought a couple were very corny. I like corny and Mancini's tunes are so beautiful to me.
