Rhythm is THE MOST Important Thing in Jazz

Rhythm is THE MOST Important Thing in Jazz. In Jazz, especially Bebop, the most important thing above all, is Rhythm! In order to play Jazz authentically, Rhythm should be at the forefront of what you learn and understand. By doing so, your phrasing, time, and pocket will dramatically sky rocket and your playing will truly transform into something much closer how your biggest Jazz Heroes sound. Learn how to play Jazz authentically BUT still retain your own sound. In this Video, Adam teaches you what your Rhythm Stream is, how tap into it, work on it, and use it when you practice or perform.
