The Journey

It’s been ages since my last post. I’ve been progressing nicely to say the lest. I’m totally happy with my journey thus far. Jazz is a very interesting art form. For the life of me I never would’ve thought the art of improvisation to be this challenging. Have a great teacher, who’s very patient and understanding of my passion to learn this infinite art form.  Improvising is like the martial art I study. There are some many similiarities.

Portrait of Tracy has become my favorite tune of all I’ve been studying over the last year in half.  I’m currently working on my own piece of improvising. Using the pentatonic major and minor with some improvising with a nice C blues scale, carried over to a A blues scale then E blues scale, then taking things up an octave to an D for the dorian mode with a minus note to give it a 6 note scale. All in all it sounds good so far.
