في هذه القضية

In this month\'s edition we are going to analyse a solo played by wonderful jazz pianist Mr. Keith Jarrett. His very unique style of playing forced me to do some work with one of his great solos. Here are first 32 bars (+2 before and 1 after the solo) of his solo from very famous jazz standard Bye Bye Blackbird. There are really just few notes in this solo but very well played and placed.

Speak Jazz Magazine Description:

Many young people (including myself - the author) who like jazz music, would like to learn to improvise, are missing some of the main points when studying improvisation. You can find many advices on the internet and they are all great for help. As many of you could notice, many times we meet with the most important process - transcribing. Speak Jazz magazine takes you across the most underestimated parts of the transcribing. The analysis, variations and importing. In each publication you'll find one transcription of a solo played by some great jazz musicians and will do a detailed work out with the few bars of that unique material.
