The Art of Taking B.A.D Jazz Solos


Listen Later

So, we just got our Inner Circle Retreat this last weekend, and my friends, it was an absolutely amazing time. So motivating and so inspiring. A lot of our Inner Circle members came together. We did workshops, we did masterclasses, and we did group breakout sessions. It was an amazing time and we learned a lot together.

I want to share with you one little thing that we did talk about during the retreat 'cause I think it will be helpful for you as well, And that's this concept about playing "B.A.D" jazz solos and how playing "B.A.D" jazz solos all-year long could be the secret to massively and exponentially improving your jazz skills this year.

In this episode:

1.  What B.A.D. stands for
2.  Characteristics of a Brave solo
3.  What is an Audited solo
4.  Steps to Audit a solo
5.  Listen to my own jazz solo and how I audit it
6.  The Directional solo
7.   Looking at B.A.D. solos in a different perspective
