Description
Students, educators & performers may always continue to search for shortcuts to improvisation, but there are none. It takes hours of dedication and disciplined practice to be able to improvise. That being said, it is not a foregone conclusion that learning to improvise couldn’t be made easier with the proper guidance and resource. Santorella’s New Jazz Improvisation series, “Know Before You Blow” is the answer!

Every student eventually realizes the need to reduce the amount of time spent listening & transcribing and to simply start practicing.

Santorella’s Jazz Improvisation series, “Know Before You Blow” covers many aspects of improvisation including Blues, Jazz Modes & II-V7 Turn Around Progressions which makes that daily exile routine a truly beneficial learning experience. “Know Before You Blow - Jazz Modes” teaches why, when, what and
