Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)There are many aspects of musicianship that "go without saying".We don't talk about them, so growth occurs slowly (if at all).We can flounder for decades without ever becoming great players, never questioning why.
Victor and Anthony break these elements of music down in a very logical manner, allowing us as musicians to take a sober look at what we actually know and don't know.This can be a very shocking reality check, but it's also very inspiring.
The content is best suited for good bass players who want to grow into great bass players, but it is also applicable to beginning and intermediate bass players, and to musicians in general.Some exercises are strictly for bass players, but this video teaches music as a whole.
You won't learn how to play the VWB's funk-infused jazz from this series of lessons, but you will learn something more valuable -- how to make whatever you do more musical.
Victor's approach to learning music is unusual, but it's not radical.He does not attempt to replace the classic methods, but to supplement them.I would be skeptical if his teaching methods were radical, but they are simply based on observation of how music really works.
