Tune Deep Dive - Wave Pt. 8 by Behn Gillece

🚨 Tune Deep Dive: “Wave” – Pt. 8: Putting It All Together 🚨

In our final lesson, we bring everything from the series together into a full chorus etude over Wave. This written solo combines guide tones, arpeggios, scale fragments, motifs, and tension–resolution lines to show how each concept can flow seamlessly in a musical context.

Bossa Etude (based on Recado Bossa Nova)

I love the tune Recado Bossa Nova. My fav part is the Eb to A. What a cool sound. 

I wrote a very detailed (for me) etude with sticking. So you can really see how I think of things. I try to take a very minimalist approach to the vibes (most of the time). 

Notice how the harmony works and there is not a lot of chords. I think this works as a solo piece which means you don't need a lot of notes and chords for a solo piece.
