Session 7: Putting It All Together on “Avalon,” Part 1 |
In Session 7, the solo you’ll learn to “Avalon” uses all the improvisational devices you’ve already learned. Here’s what Aaron says about the session: “We are going to continue putting it all together! We'll take a look at a solo on the standard “Avalon” that uses a combination of the tools we've explored. We'll also listen to some recordings of the song by great jazz violinists!”
Here are links to the recordings Aaron plays during the session:
Joe Venuti and Zoot Sims
Stephane Grappelli
Svend Asmussen
