Remember that learning to improvise is a lifelong journey. Don’t be put off by having to do lots of practice. There are no short cuts or hacks to improve your jazz improvisation skills. Every great player that I have ever worked with studied hard and continues to study, no matter what level of success they might enjoy!
Warm regards, Darren. Jazz Etudes.
