Improvisation Step by Step
Do you struggle with Jazz Improvisation?
If so I can relate...
For many years I avoided improvisation completely...
I was embarrassed for people to hear me improvise...
I didn't even want my PARENTS to hear me improvise...
Improvising only made me sound like a beginner again...
I didn't know how to practice improvisation...
Back then, my teachers used to put on backing tracks and just say "have a go"...
They thought that if I just "had a go" for long enough it would eventually 'click'...
But it never did.
My improv stayed the same - no matter how many times we tried it.
What I needed was a clear method
Improvisation might seem like an abstract process that no one can really teach...
But the truth is there's a handful of techniques that jazz musicians use in their solos...
Each technique can be taught, practiced, and learned - just like anything else...
