One of the best ways to go about learning jazz is copy the phrases of the greats that we love.
This is what we do when we learn a new language.
We hear , learn and repeat words. and with some effort, study and practice we can start to
assemble these words into sentences .
After some more time and practice we can begin to re assemble themand express ourselves naturally.
In this video I would like to present to you what I consider to be some of the coolest,
most useful phrases any Jazz student can ever learn that come from Oscar Peterson´s
Cotton tail solo.
Think of these short phrases as building blocks, once you have learnt them deeply you will be
able to reassemble them spontaneously n to your own phrases!
Let me know what you think in the comments!

My name is Nick Homes. I was, and still am a non genius musician who struggled for many years to find out the secrets of jazz improvisation. Throughout 40 years of playing, and obsessive investigation I have focussed on building systems of learning for my students so they can improve , and reach their learning goals with the highest probability.
