Workshop #2

In this workshop we started playing actual tunes including Scrapple from the Apple and My Little Suede Shoes, both by Charlie Parker. Dave also introduced us to the 12 bar blues form, which most of us knew beforehand. I was proud of myself because Dave told me that my melodic phrasing had actually improved a little since the last workshop, and knowing that I did work on it assures me that practice does indeed help. The next thing I need to work on however are descending arpeggios and triads, and my comping style.
