Summary of This Method
Designed to get you playing jazz double bass from the very first pages, this method emphasizes practice in service of style: you develop a true understanding of bass lines, with a particular focus on walking bass. Through exercises and pieces, you work on essential elements for a solid and melodic line: chord tones, passing notes, scales, arpeggios, and modes, as well as jazz harmony (extended chords, cadences, anatoles) to construct coherent progressions within the chord changes.
The book offers numerous turnarounds in the most commonly used major and minor keys, helping you become familiar with frequent chord movements and learn to respond naturally to typical jazz progressions. The whole functions as a dictionary of double bass licks that is both practical and educational, ideal for enriching your rhythmic and melodic vocabulary. The video DVD covers each exercise to clarify fingerings, placements, and musical intent, while the audio CD provides many playbacks: perfect for working on tempo, consistency, timing, and independence, just like in rehearsal or jam sessions.
