Dave Brubeck – Take 5

Lesson Run Time: 83 minutes / Release Date: 04/14/2012

I’ve been wanting to do this song for a while! Take 5 was written by Paul Desmond and performed by The Dave Brubeck Quartet on their 1959 album Time Out. In this lesson I’ll break down the arrangement but we will also cover a bunch of improvisation and reharmonization ideas to make the song “your own.”
