A take on one of those earlier mentioned Chord Yoga ‘positions’:
Earspeed [1] Transcription T(r)ips or how to get the most out of transcribing / transcriptions.
Here it’s the 'mixed-media' approach of Joe Pass, combining and switching often in between chordal passages and other textures, like single-note lines plus percussive elements.
Not so much about copying a certain style or musician, this is just one reading of the ‘text’. More like becoming familiar with and sharing a language, towards a dialogue, call and response …
Using these ideas as a platform to come up with your own, this approach fosters a unique and useful perception, offering more agency. Ideally beyond the filter of yet another music education source - also looking at my offerings here. Meticulously crafted methods, sharing learned expertise from live concerts and teaching, even that darn music degree; visiting those ‘high places’, where the expensive chords live - aspects of these are certainly needed and helpful at times and should be shared but overall, I do have reason to believe that music education works best when it’s more like a medium of dialogue, as compared to that ‘guru’ approach.
“Notice what I did here, notice wh…?” to quote the vastly influential philosopher Bojack Horseman
