Gene Wilder’s irreverent, eclectic iteration of the elusive chocolatier was as captivating as he was terrifying, and many moments in the film personally caused me genuine trauma. PicturesĬhildhoods were made or broken by Mel Stuart’s 1971 Roald Dahl adaptation Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. Take a look over the lesson links above and let me know if I can help further.Timothée Chalamet in Wonka.

It’s coming along really nicely and I’m aiming to have it done in the next week or so. This month I have been recording a new course called “cocktail improvisation for beginners” which focuses on the tune “Misty” and follows a similar format to the “Georgia” course above but with more of an improvisational focus. Yes you might also like to check out the course on “Georgia” where we start with the most basic arranging techniques and gradually add more complex voicings, you can find that course here: ![]() ![]() I will correct both of these and re-upload the file. My notation skills are not as sharp as my arranging skills! :–) If you are ever in doubt please follow the demonstration in the actual video lessons and I appreciate you letting me know. Also yes there are some inaccuracies in bar 5 where beat 4 should be C-Eb-F-Ab in the right hand which is a block chord style voicing with the Ab doubled underneath in the left hand. Yes you are correct measure 33 should be a Gb and not an F. In conclusion-I very much enjoyed having this be my first jazz standard in my repertoire especially as I loved watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as a kid ) I do try to remember your advice to be patient and that this is a learning process which will take years. ![]() I still have sudden brain glitches-which is sometimes hard because of the hours spent learning. In general, I can play this song much better than the first few attempts (The Nearness of You, Days of W and R) and will most likely continue with the next jazz standard using this sequence of learning steps. At that point, I allowed myself to learn the voicing arrangement on your tutorial. Once I felt confident in this step, I played the block chords with my left hand-and then in combination with the melody. Upon starting this tune, I spent solid practice time really knowing the melody and writing the chord progressions over and over again. Hayden-it took me a few weeks of learning to get to a new level of understanding-and Pure Imaginations is what I used my ‘breakthrough’ on. The following theory areas have been covered in detail in other lessons, click the links below if you would like to learn more about these topics: If you’d like to learn more you can check out the full advanced tutorial here. We have created an advanced arrangement of this tune and whilst this is a beginner-focused lesson, we will hint at some of the more advanced arranging techniques. We will analyse the role of the suspended voicings and discuss how they fit into the harmonic framework of the tune. Suspended HarmonyĪn interesting aspect of this tune is that it features a lot of suspended harmony also known as sus chords. We then go through the form again and enhance our voicings with chord extensions and chord alterations. We first arrange the tune using simple root-3-7 voicings and we pay attention to the major and minor 251s so that we know how to identify and navigate this common progressions. In this lesson we create a beginner-focused arrangement of the tune “Pure Imagination” from Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory. ![]()
