    Nice playing to you both. I went to Berklee 81-83 (trumpet performance). At the time, all I heard was jazz. There were no other forms of music being played that I ever heard. It was a wonderful experience.

    • @TomoFujitaMusic
      @TomoFujitaMusic  Місяць тому +1

      Thank you! Our amp EQ: treble 9, bass 3, middle 5, presence 5, no reverb!
      Guitar volume around 6-7 on Les Paul. Because volume setting is same for all students! It’s uncomfortable to play at first! That’s why all my students learn about picking volume and dynamics. They don’t learn by definition by words(very dangerous!)

    • @jfar3340
      @jfar3340 Місяць тому +1

      Almost too bright but maybe its the amp or the room. Dialing back the tone or volume knob would have been more mellow

    @jfar3340 Місяць тому +3

    Pretty good. Lot s of regearsed 2 5 licks and chained dominants using flat 9s. Very idiomatic, but more spontaneity next time. Also what genre are you aiming for? It sounds bebopy but the comping is sustained shell voicings; no upper register syncopated voicings or 4 on the floor swing era type comping; curious :) thank you

    • @TomoFujitaMusic
      @TomoFujitaMusic  Місяць тому +1

      Thank you so much! This was just a drill testing those phrases and try to change much simpler like a vocal approach. I was adding a lot. Normally I only play R 3 7 or even less. This was a part of our lesson so it's not really about a final performance. You're very welcome!

    We must talk one day, I sense a bound spirit dying to be released. Creativity is bound and buried by the structure of a once free spirited learning academy. But now I see how academiya has buried and dried up even its masters. BREAK LOOSE! BECOME UN-BOUND!
    RE-GAIN THE FIRE, THE DRIVE,
    THE POWER!
    I will take this to heart also and say it before I play!
    I AM A MASTER!
