About this method
Designed to support solid progress in music training, this method is aimed at musicians who want to take the next step: connecting theory with listening, instrumental practice and playing in real-life situations. It presents clearly “hands-on” concepts: reading and understanding bass lines, harmonic landmarks, and simple analytical skills that can be directly applied to your repertoire.
Throughout the pages, you will find accessible and practical harmony principles for building a coherent line, supporting a chord progression, choosing the right target notes and better anticipating chord changes. The application exercises help you gradually internalise these skills by strengthening rhythmic consistency, the logic of melodic movement (stepwise and disjunct) and the sense of harmonic direction.
To reinforce your learning, a CD featuring 6 tracks recorded in different styles provides a practical backing resource: you can perform written bass lines, then practise creating new ones using your newly acquired skills. An excellent supplement for developing independence, creativity and an understanding of the bass’s role within an ensemble, while improving your listening and placement.
