You want to learn to improvise over a jazz standard, but don't know where to start?
If you have ever asked yourself that question, this course is for you.
So where DO you start? You start with varying the melody.
In this no-nonsense approach I give you concrete exercises and guidance on how to get you scatting:
We will vary the melody through:
· Using scat syllables
· Employing eigth note chains
· Changing the rhythm
· Changing the pitches
We will practice all of the above with the melody of the song "Fly Me To The Moon", a classic jazz standard, if there ever was one!
This course is the first in a series of four, so fear not, you will be able to go much deeper into vocal improvisation.
