Book excerpt: Every bassist practices things like warm-ups, exercises, and new vocabulary. But how do you translate these concepts and techniques into your playing? From Practice to Performance will guide you through a tried-and-true process of transforming the elements of your practice routine into real, inspired music. The book is split into two parts: the first includes 30 exercises in all twelve keys, plus an in-depth look at how to construct a productive practice schedule utilizing this new vocabulary. Part Two puts these exercises into context, explaining precisely how to use them over various chord changes, with harmonic analysis and specialized tips from world-renowned bassist Janek Gwizdala. From Practice to Performance will not only transform your technique, your vocabulary, and how you practice, but it will revolutionize how effectively you can turn your hard work into real results as a performer. Along with a complete video master-class that provides a deeper understanding of the book's content, we're including highly polished play-alongs that will allow you to put all of these concepts into action immediately.
