'Jumping through Hoops'

I really think i'm on to something with this and nobody seems to talk about it?!

I've heard and stood next to SO many sax/trumpet/piano players that solo and seem to not only surf the wave/groove of the rhythm section... but do tricks on top of the wave. That moment when you reach the end of the section and there is a climax, all together as a band. A WEY HEY moment!!!
I don't hear Trombone players doing it a lot ( so lets talk about it)

When I've spoken to people about it, they always say 'it just happens naturally'.... well it doesn't for me ha ha

I think it's one of those things that if you don't hear it... then it will never happen naturally...therefore, we need to force the process and be aware of what is actually going on, internalise some 'moves', then forget them. ( if that makes sense?)

STEP ONE.

Where is the climax/hoop? ...on Beat 1 at the end of our 4 bar section.
Don't play anything for 3 bars. ( use this time to think)
Play an ascending line ( very important) that hits beat one perfectly
Then stop and do the exercise again.

The Be-bop scales are really good to start with because they hit strong chord tones on the beat ( also, if you have been practicing what I have been telling you on other videos? then you should be all over it)
Use quarter notes first then 8th/16ths.

Let me know how you get on?

Enjoy
