Really useful way to approach things. Thanks! I don't really solo much, in the band I play in (just bass, acoustic guitar, cajon and vocals). But I do often need to slip a little fill or phrase in, higher up, to give some textual variety and interest to the song. The spaces in which this can be done vary (obviously) from song to song, depending on the phrasing of the vocal melody. So this lesson seems like it'll be really useful for helping to develop the creative dexterity to be able to slip into any point in the chord progression, and drop out again in a way that feels natural and complete.
Katie, your first exercise was cool from an academic standpoint, but your second exercise actually sounded pretty good. Have you tried using this formula but with varying patterns? Eg. Rest 2 play 3, rest 1 play 4, rest 2 play 3, rest 1 play 2 ect. It might be interesting/useful for your style of music.
Katie, I enjoy watching, you, listening and learning with you.
I love your approach the music and your teaching style.
Excellent work.
Katie,
You're doing an excellent and appealing work, very pleasing for an eternal intermediate trumpet player. Thanks & Cheers
I heard this alot, but never really imagined it to be this way.. It's amazing that you explained it
What a great idea!
Great help to push beyond the soloing fear. I'll definitely give it a try and check your other lessons, well worth. Thank you.
Love it. What a great way to make variety in phrasing. Thanks for posting.
Another awesome lesson! Thanks 🙏
Thanks so much Mark! :-)
