Summary of This Method
As its name indicates, this book is entirely dedicated to the role of the double bass in the trio, and more broadly to everything that makes a bassist successful in a collective setting. The goal is clear: to help you develop the essential automatisms for playing with other instrumentalists by teaching you how to position yourself precisely in the time, support the pulse, and interact with the rest of the group.
The method offers numerous exercises focused on the typical challenges of ensemble music: studies in 4/4 and 2/2, setting up and call-and-response with the drums, and active listening work. You will also cover key points of modern and traditional jazz through improvisation exercises on jazz cadences, exploration of odd meters, interpretation of themes played directly on the bass, as well as modal music practice. These are all "refinements" that make the difference when it comes to being solid, musical, and reliable in a trio.
Designed for steady progression, this content concretely prepares you to join a group: understanding your role, locking in your placement, and gaining confidence to perform the vast majority of jazz standards. The CD complements the learning with examples played on the double bass, as well as accompaniments designed for situational practice. The bassless playbacks allow you to play the corresponding parts alone, consolidate your walking bass, or develop more personal lines, as if you were in a trio.
