*Your name

BLUES IMPROV SOLO
You may use the backing track below to practice-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3euxRLOQec
Use 75% playback speed (your tempo will be about 64 BPM)
Ideas to Ponder...
Remember that your solo should be almost lyrical in nature
Use rests thoughtfully
Include repetition if you choose
You MUST NOT write down your whole solo! You are supposed to "feel" the music. Ideas are great, but DO NOT write out your whole solo- that will make it NOT IMPROVISATION!!!
