In this video, we hear from our newest DDB tutor, Petros Klampanis, demonstrating his solo arrangement of the classic standard, Just Friends. He teaches how to make the double bass sing as a melody instrument and act as a comping instrument at the same time, using different characters. It is a simple but extremely effective concept that will revolutionise your solo jazz bass playing. It’s the perfect lesson to get to know Petros’s unique approach to arranging, and it’s really fun to play!
This lesson is a preview from Petros's brand new course, Bass Odyssey: A Journey to Jazz Bass Mastery. It is out now on our website and is perfect for advancing jazz bassists who already understand the fundamentals of improvisation.
