Trombone lesson: Mike Stern lick in all keys

Trombone lesson: Mike Stern lick in all keys

Mike Stern is, despite not being a trombone player, is an amazing jazz musician. I stole this phrase from one of Mike’s solos on a recording a few years ago because I liked the sound of it. And being bored on a rainy day, I decided to write it down in all keys and work on it on my trombone. It turned out to be a quite hard but rewarding technical trombone exercise. You’ll get a good high-range workout too!

And don’t ask – I forgot what recording it is from… But please let me know if you do!

Enjoy…
