MIMI FOX GUITAR INSTRUCTION

New from TrueFire!
Mimi Fox's Graduated Solos

Graduated Solos presents an intuitive approach for cultivating the aesthetics of your jazz improvisations, specifically how to construct beautiful, expressive solos using the melody as the template for the improvisation. Mimi Fox presents five compositions constructed with a wide range of progressions that are common to thousands of jazz tunes. You will first learn to play the melody for each composition and work through a detailed analysis of the tune’s structure.

Mimi then demonstrates how to adapt the melody into a graduated series of improvisations using arpeggiated figures, harmonic substitutions, rhythmic variations, motific development, articulation, phrasing and other approaches for building a well-constructed solo and playing with “heart and commitment.”

If your improvisations have “hit the wall” and you’re feeling a bit in the proverbial rut, Mimi’s Graduated Solos course is likely the epiphany you’ve been yearning for!
