Description: A Modern Impulsive Jazz Tune with TAO (my imaginary twin) on the Bass keys, Erik Frandsen on the Drums and myself (Oliver Prehn) on the piano. This time only Music. I need to create Music once in a while to stay sharp on performing. Teaching and performing goes hand in hand, I think. After this "music video" we'll of course return to the “lessons” and explore many new interesting aspects of improvised Music - and I really look forward to that!!! This tune consists of mainly 3 sections: In the A-section I try to make an ambient sound by using melodic minor modes. In the B-section I use pentatonic "hand grips" and we just "go wild". In the C-section we disrupt everything and play with an more open style and I use the Dorian scale to make a consonant pleasant sound. RELEVANT LINKS TO NEWJAZZ LESSONS Melodic minor modes (as used in the A-section): youtu.be/3FcuCR14Lmw (practical) youtu.be/rvStGI_tn1o (theory) The Pentatonic Hand Grip (as used in the B-section): youtu.be/BgvAq1tTnN4 (starting with a simple 2 finger grip) youtu.be/mOCyAo5ZfIw (Adding the left hand) youtu.be/61bI3dgdXMo (Comprehensive & thorough) Dorian scale (as used in the C-section): youtu.be/XRVRFu2lLBg (look up Dorian) youtu.be/_eMCJcjzwHU (Why is Dorian so pleasant and consonant?) THE RECORDING PROCESS First Erik recorded a draft on the drums. Then TAO made a draft on the bass. Then Erik and I (Oliver) recorded and video taped drums & piano on top of the bass (playing together). Then TAO was videoed while he had the honor to refine the bass.
