Any piece of music with complex riffs and runs
can look and sound intimidating. It doesn’t matter whether the riff and runs
are Jazz, Pop or Opera; the principle for learning is the same, break it down
piece by piece. First, work out the rhythm through clapping and counting, be
sure to catch and review any trouble spots you might have. Secondly, play the
notes from the page of music on the piano and make sure you are solid on your
intervals. Lastly, combine the rhythms and pitches on the piano and sing along
slowly until you feel comfortable taking it at a faster speed. It also helps to
start working on the end of the riff and learn it backwards so you become more confident
as you go along.
