Jazz Independence
Jason will give a brief history lesson on Jazz and its form , style and rules. Jason will touch on how to develop independence on between your hands and each part of the drum set.
Jason will use the two songs " Well You Needn't " by Thelonious Monk and the song "Lady Bird " by Tadd Dameron as examples of different types of Jazz drumming.
In this step, Jason will introduce two different feels such as the "2-Feel" and "Double Time Feel" and will demonstrate how to play them in different patterns and variations.
In this lesson, Jason will use a well-known Thelonious Monk tune titled, “Well You Needn’t” as an example of a Jazz standard with a relatively busy melody and the role the drummer plays when approaching a melody & form like this.
