Basic Bb Blues Improvisation (notation aid)

[@NessOkey]

when you have a jazz audition today and are procrastinating edit: i made it, i’m last chair trombone.

[@SimonFransman]

There's no such thing as last chair. All the chairs are equally important to the overall sound.

[@NessOkey]

true, but either way, i’m doubling for third trombone with my friend

[@adityachakrabarti2601]

yaigh

[@adityachakrabarti2601]

third trombone's fun, you just chill with mid-range notes usually. what songs?

[@NessOkey]

the stray cats’ rock this town, maynard’s coconut champagne, and some other song named bradley’s groove shop

[@PeterGeorg-ez7ft]

Thank you very much for this excellent demonstration!

[@SadieAtCollege]

Wonderful!! Simple and great. Thank you for sharing. Students should use good KZbin videos like this in their practice!

[@ktang001]

I just started learning trombone 3 and a half weeks ago. This is great! I can probably just play the first 4 bars, that's all! LOL!

[@sugerbearnellie04]

Could you make this as a downloadable PDF or some way to print it off? It's super helpful for a beginner improviser !

[@johndias6614]

Terri Hubble transcribe it. You will get a better feeling for the riffs and cord changes.

[@hgsamp]

[@briancole1833]

There are a few other quotes in here, too!

[@SpockMonroe]

Thank you!

[@TheSnoz1]

Do you have a downloadable PDF for this improve sheet? If you do please send it!

[@jakemf1]

Please do more!!

[@tylerbarnestb]

Why is it in the key of Eb?

[@tromboneJTS]

Because Ab is a blue note and the key of Eb is basically myxolydian.

[@tylerbarnestb]

It’s Bb blues tho

[@tromboneJTS]

@@tylerbarnestb yes, it could be written in Bb with incidentals for Ab and Db, since both are part of the Bb blues scale.

[@jakemf1]

Love it, play trombone but don't do a lot of improvising! How about more complex changes! Love the quotes!

[@thardingau]

Why end on an Ab7 chord?

[@tromboneJTS]

Ask Miles Davis. It is his progression.

[@nathansoumphonphakdy1582]

Do you have sheet music or know what this is called ?

[@thebmurdie3605]

just use snipping tool and paste it onto a word doc and print it out. its all I do for my jazz music

[@johndias6614]

Or transcribe it...

[@philen]

i think it's based on freddie freeloader by miles davis

[@alisaulsosatorres836]

The pdf brother

[@accage2131]

The title says Bb but the notes are in Eb?

[@tromboneJTS]

Yes, Bb myxolidian

[@charlessahagian160]

Too bad the rhythmic notation is incorrect many times. Otherwise I like it quite a bit.

[@MrHestichs]

Or the performance is incorrect.

[@mrfluff1013]
