#9 - Randy Halberstadt - learning by ear

Here is the link to the 9th Jazz Colony Session for 2016 on August 22nd. Randy has some great ideas that he squeezes into a short time frame. 

Presentation #2 - Autumn Leaves - sing it, then play it - 6:42 is the beginning of a synopsis of the practice technique picking out a tune BY EAR ....

at 8:40 he heads into the power of knowing and playing your CHORDS!

On the video titled "Part Two" Randy Demonstrates and summarizes.


Next Week - Marina Albero - piano

Thanks to Pete Bennett for the great videos and to the Gauls for helping with the BBQ burgers.
