Oscar Petersen, "I'll be home for Christmas"
See? Jazz does not have to be complicated.
Slightly smaller group to-night with Vic ill, Paul tied up with Christmas and Steve T with high paying gigs.
But we had a newcomer to-night who did extremely well, Frank, and last week's newcomer Steve, both on tenor. Dave played the bass lines.
BLUE MOON 16’s then 8’s with a hand over. Then 4’s. Play
tune + embellish+ harmony. 1 to lead harmony others to copy. Stabs and long
notes. A quote. Silence. Arpeggios? Alt chords on 7’s
Long notes and stabs. Geoff sand Dave used diminished scales and played outside on the 7 chords.
CANTALOUPE and CHAMELEON. finally we had a go at the Miles Davis song FOUR. Not the easiest of changes for newcomers to the group.
