Let me show you how to improvise way beyond how you play now - on trombone.
How can you get past the difficulty of the instrument and begin playing more authentically and in a way that gives you more satisfaction?
By connecting your inner musician to your trombone. That may sound obvious, but for too many of us, the music inside is being drowned out by the din of memorized patterns and safe licks.
This ear-based 170-page coil-bound or digital book will improve your skills in a number of areas from strengthening your sense of time to teaching you a bit of necessary music theory to exercises for learning the blues and 14 other standard tunes.
Running through each page is a constant reminder to open up your ears, mute the chatter and listen to the music outside and inside of you. I believe that is where music comes from.
