Solo Jazz Piano Part 2
The beauty of our chosen instrument is the ability to play alone- solo- without the accompaniment (or interference) of others. Anything you can dream up is fair game when you are playing solo. This series of lessons gives you the tools to do just that beginning in Part 1 with the explanation of the role of the right hand when playing solo jazz piano. Part 2 describes the left hand and Part 3 (coming soon) puts the two together. Part 4 (coming soon) shows you how to mix rootless voicings into your solo playing.
