Know Before You Blow - Blues For Flute - Book/CD

Santorella's Jazz Improvisation series is a revolutionary response driven concept in learning licks you can actually use in a real life playing situations. Most every style of Jazz is derived from some form of the Blues. It is created from a basic I-IV-V chord progression, but capable of generating an array of complex substitutions. This simple progression is found in jazz, rock, swing, shuffle, country and popular music. Learning to improvise over the blues is the key to learning to improvise over any style of music. Know Before You Blow is based upon a call & response approach to improvisation. Every scale, exercise & lick is first played by a studio professional prompting an identical response from the student. Flute Book and 2 Cds. Written by Chris Tedesco.
