[G] Hey guys, welcome back to another trumpet lesson.
This [D] time we are going to be going over soloing over a Bb blues [Bm] scale.
Ok, so here we go.
Basically there are a lot of [F] scales that you can use to solo over a Bb blues, but what
I am going to suggest is the actual Bb blues scale, which basically just sounds really good.
All these notes.
It is really good for beginners.
If you just stick to this scale, it works really well.
So the notes in this scale are low C, Eb, F, G, Bb, and then C again.
Basically you can extend that to other octaves, but it just sounds really good over the scale.
That is just_
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[N] _ _ And so for beginners who haven't really soloed much in jazz, basically it is just improv.
So you want to play what sounds good with the backgrounds.
These notes do sound really good with the backgrounds, and it is just basically what
you think in your head.
You can really just start almost by just playing the scale to the backgrounds, and that will
actually sound good.
And then you just kind of mix it up, add some different rhythms, and _ just different patterns and stuff.
And so soloing just basically using the scale going up and down just sounds a little bit
something [E] like this. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [G] _ _ And so as you heard at the end of that, [B] basically I started off just playing the scale, and
then I just switched it up a little bit.
I was still basically playing them in order and stuff, but just change it up a little
bit, make it sound a little bit different.
[A] And another thing you [Ab] can do also is if you listen to a lot of jazz, try and incorporate
different _ rhythms and things in from how you've heard them in other songs from professionals
or whatnot, or [G] transpose from songs you've heard, and that works really well.
So yeah, that's about it.
Okay, guys, that's all for today.
