Lauren Lessons Term 3 2021
Lesson 9/9/2021 Hey Geoff, We always have so much to get through in our lessons, it's great how many different things you're keen to work on at once! Star student haha!! Maybe next term we can get through a bit more if you want to have a 45min or hour lesson, something to discuss with Ben and Deb maybe :) -->Love how you're working through the chord progressions 1 6 2 5,etc. - this is what a lot of jazz musicians do --> practising specific progressions that can be inserted into so many different jazz standards :) - attached is the 2-5-1 exercise sheet to start getting this progression (as a starting point) under your fingers in all 12 keys, going around the cycle of 4ths: - start with root position chords then the next step could be gradually adding inversion. Try this: -ii chord: root position V7: 2nd inversion 1maj7: root position Bouncing Ball Rhythm youtube video - stomping your feet and clapping to this is a great rhythm exercise! --> try walking to all four
