Once a musician has learned a jazz standard, the next step is to practice soloing and improvisation. This involves using the song’s chord progressions and melody as a starting point and developing new musical ideas based on those elements. Soloing and improvisation are an essential part of jazz, and mastering these skills can take a lifetime.
Too often students are told: “here are the chords, here are the chords scales, now improvise!”. It would be like teaching swimming by saying: “here is the Atlantic Ocean, here is your speedo, now swim!”.
The students need to go step by step to be able to manage the freedom of jazz improvisation. That’s why I have developed the step by step program The 4 Levels Of Improvisation. One step at a time, you learn how to improvise!
