marton, you little monkey! It appears you've come a long way in a short time even if you aren't quite sure how short a time yourself. If this jam and its participants are real - and i think I have to assume they are - then I admire you for having the nerve to give this a shot. Talk of "grumpy old standards" got me wondering just what you were intending to play. Or are you just going to trust to enthusiasm and confidence?
training techniques
i've been tootling along on my tenor for about a month to six weeks now.
at first, i was just really amazed at how easy it was to just whip up and down a scale and how great it sounded. but then, i started playing along to cd's - about a week ago - and my technique has taken a quantum leap! it's rather amazing at how quickly i progressed just from that.
now, i'm going to go to a jam session i set up. two bass players, a drummer and me. i'm a huge, massive ornette coleman fan, and by that i don't mean i'm obese.
