I wanted to start a new series today on Composing Contemporary Charts. All of my previous posts have been on improvising, but I wanted to share how I compose my contemporary charts and wanted to share that process with you. Check it out at http://jasonklobnak.com

Enjoy!

On Monday I will continue the series on how I write contemporary charts on my site at http://jasonklobnak.com. In the meantime, I put up a new chart on my Facebook page (you can get there from my site) that I will be premiering on the 24th that was written using the writing techniques I'm sharing.

The 2nd part of the Composing Contemporary Charts is up on my site at http://jasonklobnak.com. In this part of the series, we will look at how to decide the progression from our series of chords.

It's been a month and a half since I've released Breaking the Monotony and I wanted to thank everyone for checking it out. I've had a number of great responses and should have some reviews up soon. If you haven't checked it out yet-be sure to go to my site for more information!

Part 4 of the Composing Contemporary Charts series is up on my site at http://jasonklobnak.com. This part looks at form and contrasting sections. There is also a video of the performance of the chart we've been constructing these past couple of weeks. Under "Sights and Sounds" there are a few more as well.

Enjoy!

Part 5, the final part in the Composing Contemporary Charts series, is up on my site at http://jasonklobnak.com. In the final part we take a look at adding the final touches/edits and asking the question: If I make this change-will it improve it? I hope you've enjoyed this series!

I have a new post up today on my site http://jasonklobnak.com talking about jazz rhythm solfege. If you're a beginning/intermediate student (or have students in this category) who needs help with timing, phrasing and articulation then I believe this topic will add value and benefit to you and your student's playing.

Enjoy!
