Day 4 - Special lick of the day!
Rather than transcribing entire solos everytime,why not extract licks or phrases that sound interesting, play them thru all the KEYS like an exercise.
Through imitation we build vocabulary and mastery of the language which later develops into a unique sound of our own!
Happy Practicing 🎺🎷

Day 13 - Going bar for bar with @mu.ya___ Playing Groovin' high a jazz standard by Dizzy gillespie! The fastest I have ever transcribed any melody, watch what happens when you got the chord changes plus harmony locked 🔐.
