Description:

Join Nina as she dives deep into the heart of jazz improvisation with this comprehensive exploration of rhythm changes, one of the most essential forms in jazz. This course serves as an intensive bootcamp that will revolutionize your improvisational skills and strengthen your overall approach to jazz soloing.

Through detailed analysis and practical application, you'll master:

  • The fundamental rhythm changes form and its essential progressions (I-VI-II-V, two-bar dominant 7th, and II-V-I sequences)
  • Advanced chord substitution techniques that expand your harmonic vocabulary
  • Both swing and straight eighth-note approaches across different tempos
  • Authentic jazz phrasing and articulation with a focus on swing feel
  • Left-hand comping patterns that enhance your solo lines and support group playing

This course combines technical development with creative application, using both swing and even-eighth tunes as vehicles for learning. By the end, you'll have internalized the rhythm changes form so thoroughly that you'll approach not just rhythm changes, but all jazz standards with renewed confidence and skill.

Perfect for intermediate to advanced players looking to elevate their jazz improvisation to professional levels through focused study of this quintessential jazz form.
