Django improvisation - connecting the ideas!💡

I kind of fell down a gypsyjazz/Django Reinhardt rabbit hole during the holidays, and decided to try a new approach to improvising (well, at least new to me!)🧐

I tried to approach each chorus with one or two central improvisational ideas from Django's vocabulary and then mix in my own impro in between🎸

One thing led to another and it ended up being a rather well structured approach to improvising where I made a list of main ideas to use for each chorous👇


1) Theme
2) Arpeggios and scales
3) Arpeggios and scales
4) Double stops and repetition
5) Open strings and chromatic lines
6) Octaves and chord solo
7) Chord Solo with thump (Wes style!)
8) Theme

The tune:
"Joseph, Joseph"

Chord changes:

|Am|Am|Am|Am|Am|Am|Dm|Dm|
|E7|E7|E7|E7|E7|E7|Am|E7|
|Am|Am|Am|Am|A7|A7|Dm|Dm|
|Dm|Dm|Am|Am|F7|E7|Am|E7|

Hope you enjoy it folks - and happy new year! 🎸😃🎉
