In the opening of this video (the second in a series about solo transcription) you hear me play a transcription of one of my own recorded solos—it’s harder than you might think! This kicks off a discussion of the rationale and strategy for doing what many if not most jazz musicians would consider to be an essential part of learning the jazz language, which consists of more than just notes, in the same way that spoken language consists of more than just words. Common questions are considered, e.g., which musicians you should transcribe and whether you should slow down the recording to make the notes easier to hear.
