The "SALAD BAR"

tasty morcels of inspiration

Welcome to a unique space where i dissect and explore "bite-size" chunks from jazz solos.

I always say to my students jazz is like a salad bar, you pick and choose the ingredients that resonate with your musical palate,

building your own improvisational language.

Regular additions

I  believe that a player's improvising "language" is built from a multitude of influences. My  "Salad Bar" will be frequently updated with new solo "tidbits' ; bitesize phrases from jazz greats, ensuring a constant stream of inspiration and learning opportunities. Keep visiting to see what im taking a "bite" out of next
