Key Signature Tackled, Pt. 3
08/07/09 20:57 Themes: Key Signature Tackled | Melody Oriented
OK, probably some explanation is due. The lack of new improvisations for the past days was mostly because of my absence: I was visiting Birmingham. Still, I’m back and ready to rock! :)
Today’s improvisation is the third movement in the KST series. This piece explores some of the oldest jazz progressions, trying to find something elusive and unknown in them, trying to tell a story. In the series, four parts are planned, the last one being a finale that merges all themes. This will be quite a challenge, stay tuned.

Note: You might want to look at the archive of older entries where all improvisations for June are still being kept.

This is my long overdue response for Eric Barnhill’s versus. This is already the third piece in the series. This time I had real trouble coming up with a theme that is not repetitive yet recognisably chained to Eric song’s structure. In particular, I’m not happy with the rhythmic accuracy I managed to get (or rather - the lack of it).
But the longer I worked on different improvisations on the theme, the more I felt this would go nowhere, so in the end I kept this version. Imperfect but done.

I planned for some time to prepare a more structured series of improvisations. KST, Pt. 1 starts a particularly mellow one. Three more parts are planned. You can also be interested in KST, Pt. 2.
