jakenewmanbass Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Hi Matt, nice work. 2 suggestions. 1. You could use a key sig (even though it's a blues) of F to save writing Bb's in everytime. Personal choice, but reading accidentals all the time can be tiresome. 2. Use quavers instead of those odd triplet things and just state 'swing feel' at the top of the chart. Anyone worth their salt will know and naturally feel it to swing the quavers. Those triplet markings are a computerised 'missing the point' thing.

Bilbo Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 It is is often tempting to put the quavers onto Sibelius etc in order to make it sound more convincing but it is better to use quarter notes and change the performance settings to 'heavy swing'.

foal30 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 yes good one Matt I understand you probably wanted to fit it on one page but pedant from Aotearoa writes I like blues as 4 bars per line not 6 bars. and bilbo's book is on NZ's version of ebay [url="http://www.trademe.co.nz/books/nonfiction/music/other/auction-597624940.htm"]http://www.trademe.co.nz/books/nonfiction/music/other/auction-597624940.htm[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
