Concepts like voice leading a solo, syncopated playing, extension playing, chord substitution playing and more are explained and illustrated in real time during Maurice’s solo over a static chord vamp as well as explained with short improvised examples.

“Em7 Vamp” and using “Soloing concepts” as well as playing “outside”
