The bass part is a separate but related melodic phrase which becomes the important melody in the B section. Purpose: Introduction to the elements of the jazz styles of Duke Ellington Count Basie and Horace Silver: 1. Jazz inflection and phrasing 2. Varying riffs through simple variation and rhythmic displacement 3. Harmonic structure drawn from commonly used jazz harmonic patterns. Suggestions for Instruction: In m. 1-8 learn hands alone with special attention to double and grace notes. After learning one hand at a time it can be playedwith a teacher as a duet. In m. 12 RH double notes need special attention lifting the fifth finger on upper repeated notes while playing lower voices smoothly. In m. 13-20 learn to play the LH melody legato with RH chords detached. In m. 28-29 give special attention to rhythm and chord positions. Other Information After Blue Notes is memorized it will work well with rhythmic accompaniment or as a basis for improvisation.
