🎶 Monthly Tune Study: “Lady Be Good” by George Gershwin 🎶
Hosted by Dr. Bob Lawrence | Jazz Piano Skills | Director, The Dallas School of Music
Join Dr. Bob Lawrence for this month’s exciting Jazz Piano Skills Tune Study featuring the timeless jazz standard "Lady Be Good" by George Gershwin. This comprehensive three-part study is designed to help you Discover, Learn, and Play Jazz at a deeper level.
🗓️ Week One: Harmonic Analysis
Unpack the form and changes of Lady Be Good as Dr. Lawrence explores the harmonic function, common jazz movements, and a variety of voicing approaches—traditional shells, block voicings, contemporary shells, and two-handed structures.
🗓️ Week Two: Melodic Analysis
Get inside the melody. You'll transcribe, notate fingerings, and identify phrases and target notes, laying the groundwork for a more connected and expressive improvisational approach.
🗓️ Week Three: Improvisation Development
Apply professional jazz vocabulary! Learn common rhythmic and melodic devices, explore chord/scale relationships, and integrate arpeggio and scale motion to shape compelling solos.
🎧 Weekly Podcast Episodes break down each focus area, and a LIVE Masterclass with Dr. Lawrence happens every Thursday at 8 PM Central (CST).
📺 All masterclasses are recorded and available for Jazz Piano Skills Members to watch and rewatch anytime!
🎹 It’s time to Discover, Learn, and Play Jazz.
