Flute Talk

Hey everyone! Thought I'd share a solo from a couple of months ago.. you can see here the usefulness of double tonguing when soloing at fast tempos. I hope you enjoy!

Welcome to the group! You can connect with other members, get updates and share videos.

Thanks for posting your vocalizing video! As always, you sound great!!

I've been working on this a lot over the past few years!

It's fun to try to sing in other intervals than unison or octaves too. If you listen to Hubert Laws' recording of "The Baron", there's a phrase in the intro to the song where he sings along in harmony with the notes he's playing. I was really inspired by this!

I am hoping to record and share more of these duets-in-4-parts this year, but here's one where I've recorded two videos; This is from a 4-part arrangement for voices, SATB; I play the soprano part on the flute while singing bass, and then play the alto part while singing tenor.

Hey everyone!

We've just released a new E-Book on our site..

I often have students overwhelmed about what scales they should play over chords, and have compiled a "catalogue" of scales for jazz harmony. I feel it has a hands-on approach, and it covers a vast amount of jazz harmony.

It breaks down which scales work over which chords, gives you tips for practicing them, and shows how to actually use them in chord progressions. From modes to melodic minor, dominant chords to altered sounds—it’s all in here, made simple and practical.

I think if you're looking for something to help you understand your jazz scales on a practical level, this might be a big help!
