This is one of the most important lessons on this blog.
Bill Evans wants us to play simply, take it in small steps, a bit at a time.
He warns us against overplaying, too many notes, getting a shapeless effect.
Better do something simple which is real he says.
Extracted from the movie "The Universal Mind of Bill Evans - Creative Process and Self-Teaching".
In this part, Bill talks about how to deal with obstacles, and how to build one's vocabulary step-by-step.
Take a look at this other youtube page at www.youtube.com/miscvanguard for other videos.
In this blog We will produce tips for jazz piano, and jazz guitar together with jazz saxophone. We will cover jazz chords, jazz guitar chords, and we will deal with jazz scales. We will cover jazz songs. This site is all about jazz improvisation.
