HELP IMPROVISING!!!!
Hi, I'm a 14 year old alto sax player. I usually play 2nd or 3rd part in jazz band, since I'm a freshman and there's this other guy who's been in the band for four years. But in every part I have, I have to improvise. There's one piece we're playing that's like New Orleans stuff (in memoriam) and it's really fast paced. I think it's standard 12 bar blues. The chords are G7, C7, G7, Ami7, D7, and G7. My band master says that I should just play either a G blues scale or notes in those chords. I do it and it really doesn't sound right. The senior next to me will play so well and I don't know how he does it. Please help!
