Backing Track
Stella by Starlight Bassless Backing Track
This Stella by Starlight backing track is designed to help you hear the form as connected harmonic movement rather than a pile of separate chords. This version is bassless so bass players can supply the line themselves.
Advanced 32-bar loop
How to practice
- 1 Track the tune by phrase and key center instead of reacting bar by bar.
- 2 Use guide-tone lines to keep the changing harmony coherent.
- 3 Save denser lines for points of real tension so the form keeps its shape.
Suggested scales & modes
- Bb major
- Eb major
- C natural minor
