What is Bebop by the Numbers?
Bebop by the Numbers is a method for teaching music creation to all aspiring musicians, instrumentalists, and vocalists alike, focused on using scale degrees and repeatable building blocks and patterns to create your music. In this new edition, Kelly Eisenhour has added valuable resources for vocalists, including Solf�ge and scat syllable suggestions that correspond to the numbers and helpful information, especially for singers. We teach Jazz mostly, so our focus is on Bebop. But what you discover in these lessons can be found in all genres of music, not just Jazz.

So Why Numbers?
Numbers are very helpful. If you can think about the numbers of the scale degrees instead of the letters, you can then translate ideas to different keys more quickly. "What's the one? What's the three?" Then, the other key is the same question, just a different answer. You can't transpose very quickly from one key to the other without using numbers. Solf�ge works much the same way, "WhatÕs the Do? WhatÕs the Mi?" Ðand is more ÒsingableÓ for the vocalists and instrumentalists who pick up this book. Singers also have some specific challenges, and the strategies described in this bookÐespecially for them, allow more accessiblity to these ideas for vocalists.
I have also done a lot of experimenting with teaching students, testing who learned faster Ð the students who used notes and their corresponding letters or the students who went by numbers. In my experience so far, the answer is ÒNumbers.Ó Even though using numbers may add an extra step and the students have to figure out how to play the pattern, they tend to learn more quickly, retain better, and start coming up with their own ideas sooner than those who learn note by note. My theory is that itÕs necessary to make comparisons to play ideas. For example, ÒThis is the minor third, and IÕm going to the sixth, the sharp four, then five; I like that sound. Okay, let me try it with this key.Ó I donÕt see students making those discoveries as quickly when we go note by note and ideas are written out for them. Vocalists also do much better improvising when they have a framework and are given a step by step approach to develop.

Like that it can be charged while it's stored
Color: 7-in-1 Silver, Size: Rechargeable Set
I like that this wine bottle opener can be charged on the stand, making it always ready to perform. No worry about batteries or needing a charge before the dinner/party. It's handy to have the foil cutter and aerator beside the bottle opener and the stoppers which use the end of the bottle opener to remove air from partial bottles for temporary storage were a plus!
