quentin032000 asked:

I’ve been playing by ear for almost 8 years. I’m good enough to play most songs I want to play just by memorization. I even make tutorials to teach songs to people that don’t know how to read sheet music.
One problem: I don’t know to read sheet music. I know the basis (the notes, the rhythms, the symbols) for the right hand (treble clef). I was wondering if there is a way to easily recognize the notes on the left hand section (bass clef). I’m pretty sure there must be a trick because it would be too hard to master both clefs and to read different notes on different clefs simultaneously.
Any advice ?

Constructing Walking Jazz Bass Lines Book II Walking Bass Lines – Rhythm changes in 12 keys Bass Tab Edition Video II The following video is provided to assist the bassist to familiarize themselves with some of the rhythmic phrases used in the jazz walking bass vocabulary. The example is a walking bass line over Rhythm changes in the key of A and is taken from Part 2 of Constructing Walking Jazz Bass Lines Book II – Rhythm changes in 12 keys Bass Tab edition. Listen to the track and follow the sheet music, this will enable the bassist to accelerate the learning curve and incorporate the jazz rhythmic language into their playing. It is also an excellent way to transfer the knowledge of reading bass tab to the task of learning to read music which can open many doors for the professional musician. Enjoy the video.

candy apple asked:

I am starting to try and get into music seriously. I’m interested in learning how to read and understand it so i can converse with other musicians. I’d like a jump start but also a deeper knowledge. I can’t afford to pay for schooling. What would be some inexpensive ways to learn. I have enjoyed music all my life so I get it on a listeners level. I know maybe more than I think but would appreciate any advise and incite. Thank You
