Jazz tips
« on: June 08, 2014, 02:18:53 pm »
I'm a Jazz trumpet player in our middle school Jazz Band II. Does anyone know any good trumpet jazz solo peices that I could use to practice? I started playing this year and I play 4th trumpet.

I don't, sadly. I play piano in my HS's top big band. My suggestion: practice your parts, and make sure to practice style. Style is the most important thing in jazz.

Another fact: I can't improve (it's very funny). I know the blues scale but tend to not count while improvising...

You can always improve at anything. The blues scale is not the only scale you need to know. As for counting while improvising, that comes with time.

Hello @Richardson and welcome to Omnimaga!
The last reply to this thread was around 4 years ago, so it is unlikely that you will get a reply.
I'd recommend reading the forum rules.
