Robert J Posted April 25, 2003 Report Posted April 25, 2003 I just now discovered Hal's articles on his website. Lots to digest. Would be willing to discuss any of the topics he brings up. "Forward Motion" and "Practice and Performance Goals for the Jazz Improvisor" were especially interesting essays. Check it out! http://halgalper.com/13_arti/_0_arti.htm Quote
Joe G Posted April 25, 2003 Report Posted April 25, 2003 I'm waiting for that book he's threatened to publish on Foward Motion. Was there any new news about that? The little bit of work I did on that concept actually helped me quite a bit. Another good article was My Time With Cannonball. I have yet to pick up his book on how to put together tours; perhaps when it looks like I might actually go on tour I'll grab a copy. Quote
Jad Posted May 9, 2003 Report Posted May 9, 2003 Thanks for the link!! Just got done with the first article and am looking forward to reading the rest. Quote
Joe G Posted February 13, 2008 Report Posted February 13, 2008 Got a copy of Hal's book "Forward Motion" this last week. I give it a very high rating (although the proofreader gets low marks). I've been working out of it myself as well as bringing the material in for my students. Lots of small ideas with big implications, very clearly presented. Quote
