Herbie Hancock has been a part of pretty much everything in the music business. 14-time Grammy winner has been a pioneer in post-bop, fusion, usage of electronic instruments and instrumentation, and in bringing jazz and pop music together in a way that has shaped and influenced younger generations to think more free and to break the barriers between genres.
Exercises on this thread are built to give the students a deeper view on Herbie Hancock’s style, soloing, comping as well as an overall look into the tradition of jazz through his artistry.
Exercises are transcription-based, following with a closer look into certain details of his playing. This way we can combine ear-training with learning the language of jazz, as well as analyzing closely what is happening.
The full transcription will be posted in 2 weeks with supporting material and an analysis of the solo as well as details about what we can learn from the solo, and how to practice with it.
If you have any questions with the exercise, post them in this thread.
