In this video, I show a quick way to play jazz themes more freely on the accordion using How High the Moon.

We start with the melody exactly as written in the Real Book. Then, step by step, we shift it rhythmically, work with phrases, and add small melodic changes that lead naturally toward improvisation - without losing the tune.

A simple and practical way to feel more freedom when playing jazz standards.

Chapters:
00:00 Intro
00:26 Exercise 1 - Playing the Melody Exactly
01:21 Exercise 2 - Shifting by an Eighth Note
02:14 Exercise 3 - Working with Phrases
03:54 Exercise 4 - Small Melodic Changes
04:51 Exercise 5 - Playing More Freely
05:51 Outro
