[Dixielandjazz] Charlie's chord progressions

[Kent Murdick]

Emily Remler (sp?) the jazz guitarist once said that she learned to 
improvise by taking chord segments (like Charlie's), writing out 10 
solos over each one and memorizing them in all keys. She said that once 
she did that, she could solo like a pro.

I'm currently learning to play saxophone and can solo a little bit, but 
I'm going to try a scaled down version of Emily's idea.  I'm going to 
take four chord segments, write  five solos and learn to play them in 
five keys.  If this changes my life, I'll do the larger project.
