Speak Jazz - October 31, 2013

この問題で

In this month\'s edition we are going to analyse a solo played by Mr. Bill Sharpe. This is the first solo I\'ve ever transcribed. It\'s from very famous Shakatak\'s song called Night Birds. All of you who know Shakatak probably know this song very well. It\'s really great one as many others played by Shakatak. The bad thing about the solo is that it\'s played to high for horn players. But it\'s still useful to pick some great licks and transpose them octave down (and also to other 11 keys!) if needed.

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.
