Author: Brenden Lowe : Professional Jazz Pianist and Jazz Piano Educator April 19, 2023 Duration: 23:24
Using extensions to improvise with is usually very overwhelming. How do we use them? When do we use them? Where do we use them? I never got much clear education on this but I'm about to change that for you. In this lesson I'll show you 3 clear strategies you can use to integrate extensions. Specifically the b9 in this episode. In the upcoming weeks, I'll go through the other extensions and show you those as well. If you want to master your improvisation, be sure to register for my free masterclass called The 5 Most Important Steps You Need To Crush Your Improvisation.
