JAZZ THEME #2

This video is the second of two presentations that provides a different approach to the recording of JAZZ THEME #2. This video is intended to support the accompanying score (see download link below). It covers the essence of a musical theme upon which jazz musicians can embellish and improvise in order to fully develop its melodic and harmonic characteristics. The video was produced by blending two takes – one in which the guitarist plays a steel-string custom Valley Arts guitar, and a second in which a black nylon 6-string Ibanez EHB bass is played. The alternate version of this video, JAZZ THEME #1, has the steel-string custom Valley Arts guitar assuming the lead, while in this video the black nylon 6-string Ibanez EHB bass plays the lead.
