Rubato really doesn&#8217;t work for these unless you are playing a ballad, and even then, the rhythm section will still be chugging along as you play.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">The links below are downloadable mp3 files that you can use to practice with.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><a href=\"http:\/\/sites.tntech.edu\/jhauser\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/09\/Sliding-into-Home-Drum-Track-All-State-Jazz-Trombone-2016.mp3\">Sliding Into Home<\/a>\u00a0<strong>&#8211; Drum Track Only<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><a href=\"http:\/\/sites.tntech.edu\/jhauser\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/09\/Con-Carne-Drum-Track-All-State-Jazz-Trombone-2016.mp3\">Con Carne<\/a>\u00a0<strong>&#8211; Drum Track Only<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sliding Into Home Check the bottom of the page for a link to the drum track that I use in this recording. \u00a0While playing these jazz etudes with a metronome is useful, playing with a drumset giving you the correct style is even better in order to help your preparation.
