Inspired by the distinctive open feel of the haunting folk melodies from Scandinavia, this slow piece again relies on perfect intonation and control across the range, and a sensitive approach to ensemble to allow the tune through without it feeling forced. Available from Astute Music.
A bluesy chart with a real swagger – add lots of colour, scoops, glisses, bends, anything you can think of to enhance the “down & dirty” feel of this tune. A good, steady, dug-in tempo adds the right touch. Available from Astute Music.
A samba feel, but not too heavy…use the false fingerings to create a gentle rippling energy for the tune to sit on top of. Always “laid back” in feel, this should never feel hurried. Really commit to the dynamic shape of the piece, and be as rhythmic as possible throughout! Available from Astute Music.
