Hey guys, I'm happy to announce the release of my ebook "Jazz Improvisation for Beginners: Improvising with the Blues Scale". If you're new to improvising, this might be something for you! :) You can find more information here: www.thomashaehnlein.com/shop
Thanks Thomas, this is a really helpful and well produced video. I've been struggling with the 2nd D overtones for several weeks now; it's not consistent, sometimes I manage it but other times it takes several attempts. Interesting that you consider it difficult. Great video, thanks again.
Hi Ken, glad you liked the video! Unfortunately there’s not a great trick for the d‘‘‘ that I know of, but you can also play the d‘‘‘ as an overtone of g‘‘. This should be a bit easier than playing it right away as an overtone of bb!
I'm having trouble with G#2 the second overtone from low C#... I'm currently able to get it by slurring from G2 as an overtone of C, but it is not very stable. Any help? I play alto. Thanks again for your very instructive videos.
Hi Nestor, hm one thought I'd have is to check if you have any problems with the low c# in general (meaning if the keys are properly sealing). If so, can you play the a half a step above the g# as an overtone of d'?
Hi Robert, I thought about doing more of an intro to the whole topic, also what overtones are etc but since there are already a few other well done videos out here on RU-vid on this, I decided to do something that I didn’t find in the other videos and leave out what has been done already
