Step into the world of swing and develop the essential tools of jazz rhythm and improvisation.

In this class, you’ll:

• Learn 3-note comping shapes to lay down that classic swing groove

• Get an introduction to soloing with modes, so you can start building lines with confidence

• Explore voice leading concepts that make your solos connect smoothly over chord changes

• Apply everything in the context of three classic jazz standards:
  🎵 It Had to Be You
  🎵 I'll See You In My Dreams
  🎵 Oh, Lady Be Good

➡ Perfect for: Intermediate players who want to dip their toes into swing and jazz, expand their rhythm vocabulary, and start soloing in a whole new style.
