Jam with Onyx Brass

Onyx Brass have created a free teaching a learning resource for aspiring brass players, teachers or anyone who just wants a bit of fun. The project is a wonderful opportunity to play along with Onyx Brass from the comfort of your own home performing Duke Ellington’s ‘C-Jam Blues’. Downloadable graded parts in all keys and play-a-long video are available from the group’s website: https://onyxbrass.co.uk/c-jam-with-onyx/ 

The group released the following statement, “We have such a great time playing together that we thought we would bring that experience to everyone, so have created a play along with Onyx Brass track. It’s a modified version of our Jackdaws Project, C Jam Blues, by Duke Ellington. Its suitable for all players, especially beginners and includes an improvisation section if you are feeling a little bit funky!”
