    I've just finished this course on Nebula and I can't praise it enough. I'm not a jazz player, but am a musician who performs in other genres. I've made learning jazz one of my top goals, but haven't made much progress. Most teachers focus on scales, chords, arpeggios, etc. I am so tired of these!! In this course, Aimee takes a musical approach by focusing on motifs. This is brilliant! I have learned so much from these lessons that I just had to write about them. I now have an approach that I can understand to do my own solos. Thank you Aimee! You are the best!

    Horn player will take a two bar pattern/motif/lick and turn it into a day of practice. Play it in 12 keys, play it against different chords, play it in different genres, start displacing the rhythm, work it into solos. Two bars and really turning inside out can teach so much and create even more ideas from the initial germ of a motif.

      I could not agree more. Aimee is the piano teacher I always wanted after I I got the basics down. She covers stuff that took me years to work out for myself...and for free. Thanks Aimee! 😁😁👍👍

    A note for Swedish viewers: The chord progression in the Rhythm Changes bridge that Aimee is talking about is called ”bondstick” (”farmer’s bridge”) in Swedish.

    I’ve been playing mostly pre-bebop jazz from the 30’s and 40’s, which is a full plate on its own and made me shy away from formally studying bebop. I like that your idea applies to all jazz regardless since it can be applied to any great solo regardless of decade. I learned four licks that really really grabbed me from OP C Jam Blues. My soloing jumped a couple of levels and was just plain MORE FUN! Thanks again, Aimee. 😊

    • @patrickdevlin8553

    This is great Aimee enhanced by your can do enthusiasm. As you say one can copy and/or make up a couple of riffs, then slot them in, change them around ad infinitum. I play flute and sax and am trying to compose etudes which I write down and then learn by heart on lead sheets before jam solos. I might then vary or discard. This helps a lot. I also like the idea that you can transcribe bits of pieces, as I find whole transcriptions rather daunting. Thanks!

  • @gregoryschleitwiler9601
    @gregoryschleitwiler9601 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I get it. Thanks, I'll be using that. Works great for simple blues progessions. Anticipate the next chord change just before you get there. Wow. Opened a new door that I didn't know was there. Thanks again

  • @SamChaneyProductions
    @SamChaneyProductions 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    This is such a great idea. I'm always overwhelmed at the idea of transcribing an entire solo, and it feels difficult to apply it directly because it covers a full 32 bar form. This way of instead taking one small system and looking at all the different examples of soloists covering just that section fixes both the overwhelm problem and the application problem!

  • @dwdei8815
    @dwdei8815 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Hi Aimee, I've been doing improvisation only since the lockdown(s) and when you said that (dominant) 7th chords inexorably lead on, they sure do. It's like they contaminate themselves with the flatted note of the next chord and fall into the next by compulsion.
    I cannot imagine there's a single piece of "classical" music that ends on a (flat-)7th. Because you'd leave everyone waiting for the resolution, like a joke.
    But so much great blues and jazz manages to end on a (flat-)7th. And my ears have become used to it, to this violation of the pattern.
    I find that very strange.

    • @AimeeNolte
      @AimeeNolte  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Very true. The blues will always end with a dominant chord.
