Glyn Gray "The Real Blues" - Tap Online Dance Class/Choreography Tutorial

This is a wonderfully laid-back track featuring Ray Brown on bass. You will be playing with half and full time, syncopation as well as integrating your own interpretation. Get ready for some real blues!

Notes
  • The opening section is set however there is room to evolve this. The idea is to build up and back away, creating dynamic range.
  • Being blues you have to sit just behind the beat, if you are racing take a moment to stop and pull back.
  • Practice this piece closing your eyes so you are actually hearing.
  • The closing section is open, so add and play, making sure you maintain your timing.
  • The next time you execute this experiment and change it up yet again.
