#Keith jarrett stella by starlight transcription how to

How to keep it simple and sound interesting on a small set of sus chords. Sonny Rollins, Moritat, Strode Rode: iii-vi ii-v- and minor ii-v-things, a wealth of robust eighth-note lines Just liked the phrases and the attitude (the squeaky sound ), although the player is less known Jackie McLean on Stella by Starlight (Art Blakey's band): Nice, relaxed hard bop phrasing. Four, Miles: the concept and ideas on how to create phrases for mid- to up-tempo songs without any specific patterns, based on rhythm and selected interesting (chord) upper structures.

Street Life plus solos with Charles Kynard on the album Reeling with the Feeling. Had never heard of the guy back then, but he just sounded so good. So what, Freddie Freeloader, Trane & Miles. Liked the old-school use of harmony, arpeggios and the sound. At a rough chronological order over too many years: I've transcribed too little to make any general recommendations, and some of the selections may have been strange in such a short list, but these were a start for me and this is what I found motivation for at the time.

(Of course again, every transcription is useful and important, just trying to get a picture of what people have done to study the playing of others.) ? Did you only transcribe major players, major works, or just anything you liked ? Time is limited, so everybody focuses on something, I guess ? What did you gain from this or that piece ? How many solos have you transcribed, tens, hundreds ? Where did that get you ? When you look back at your jazz studies, well, some room left for funkier solos as well, can you remember which transcriptions helped you forward the most, blew your mind, opened up a new style for you, etc.
