Jazz Yer Blues
Lessons!
"Jazz Yer Blues" is
a series of lessons by veteran Jazz & Blues Pianist/Composer
David Arivett.
David is an
accomplished composer, arranger, producer, and educator.
Enjoy lessons and insights from David into blues and jazz
and the interplay between them, including theory, compositional aspects, and
technique.
It is specifically
designed for keyboardists who want to integrate more jazz into their blues
playing but it also serves as an excellent introduction to the blues as well as applying jazz to many genres. Since
blues is the foundation that one must build on in order to play jazz , tracing
the roots and connection between blues and jazz is vital and a fascinating study!
Of course
these lesson are equally interesting to jazz players who are
looking for some interesting changes, twists, voicings, and progressions! Lessons also
include examples from some of the legendary jazz keyboard players
like Scott Kinsey, The YelllowJackets, Jeff Lorber, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea!
Styles covered are Funk, Fusion, Latin, Contemporary, and Gospel.
How much do the keyboard
teachers in your area charge for one lesson??? And how much material do they
provide that is included in the price of each lesson???...usually nada-nothing!

affordable (Only $19.95)! individual lessons and the content contains much more
