Don't be Square exercises + Mp3 Tutorial + PDF digital download
If we practice lines that are Square and start on the beat we will almost inevitably be Square improvisors, and even worse, we will become trapped in this Square way of playing.
This Digital package has been specially designed to give you the resources so that you can turn regular lines and exercises in to rhythmical phrases full of life!
As well the concepts covered will serve as preparation for playing in odd time signatures like 5/4 or /7/8.
The Instant Download Includes :

- Mp3 of all the Youtube video examples + all the examples in the podcast tutorial - so you can hear how they sound.
- The "Funky beat" on its own for you to enjoy practicing with.

United StatesJazzDuets presentation are always clear and offer a lot of practice possibilities with plenty of exercises to grow into. Having both the audio and PDFs is so helpful for learning how to hear the transitions and variations. The author is also very generous in sharing personal stories of lessons he has learned along the way.
