Improvisation
Target notes & voice leading
Find one ensemble accent and hear how the accompaniment approaches and releases it.
Once a harmony is independently established, sing its destination note before adding an approach. Do not infer a progression from the tune title.
Pitch choices
Establish the actual harmony before choosing a scale. Begin with the melody and the destination note; no tune-wide scale formula is asserted.
Tap a steady pulse while clapping the selected accent. On guitar, preserve that pulse and play the accent only at its documented location.
Comping & voicings
Practice arriving at the accent together without making every preceding beat equally loud.
Voicing note sets
Practice arriving at the accent together without making every preceding beat equally loud.
Keep the accompaniment clear
First rehearse the specific phrase entry and release described above; add a chord pulse only when it supports that phrase.
Stomp is not Stompin' at Decca, Stompin' at the Savoy or Panassie Stomp. The generic title is insufficient evidence for a video match.
Practice room
60–90 quarter-note BPM for short study fragments; slow the source as needed
Your assignment
Tap a steady pulse while clapping the selected accent. On guitar, preserve that pulse and play the accent only at its documented location.
Loop these changes
Tap a steady pulse while clapping the selected accent. On guitar, preserve that pulse and play the accent only at its documented location.
Return to the selected recording after each short loop. Confirm the entry, release and next phrase cue before extending the passage.
Metronome
Use a quiet quarter-note click for short loops. Keep the preceding rest and the next entry in the loop; remove the click briefly to test internal time.
Transposition
After learning the chosen fragment and its actual harmony, move that fragment to one nearby key by naming the target notes. Do not transpose an unverified progression.
At the session
Confirm the composition identity, concert key and complete arrangement before calling the tune. Agree pickup and ending together.
Start together
Use the chosen recording’s entry cue only after checking its phrase length.
Finish together
Agree a plain final arrival and a visible cutoff; do not assume a live video’s tag is universal.
Stomp is not Stompin' at Decca, Stompin' at the Savoy or Panassie Stomp. The generic title is insufficient evidence for a video match.
Stomp is not Stompin' at Decca, Stompin' at the Savoy or Panassie Stomp. The generic title is insufficient evidence for a video match.
Arranging the tune
Solo guitar
Begin with the melody alone, then add only independently established bass arrivals. Practice arriving at the accent together without making every preceding beat equally loud.
Trio or larger group
Practice arriving at the accent together without making every preceding beat equally loud.
Vocal considerations
Follow the song’s breathing where a vocal version exists. Establish the singer’s key independently; lyrics are not reproduced here.

Prompt: Use case: stylized-concept. Asset: one original Djangopedia tune illustration, landscape 1536x1024, 3:2. Title context (DO NOT WRITE TEXT): Stomp.
Scene: Two musicians stamp their polished shoes in time, guitarist seated and trumpeter leaning forward. Bold block shadows and a jagged stage edge make the rhythm visible.
Style: humorous mid-century 1950s cartoon serigraph, confident chunky contours, simplified flat separate ink shapes, mildly exaggerated head/hand proportions and witty poses. More dry and graphic, less romantic than a lyrical jazz poster. Limited palette: deep navy, vermilion, sage green and unprinted cream. Small controlled ink misregistration and occasional dry-print texture, large clean shapes, crisp asymmetrical composition.
Faces: where the guitarist is Django-like, use documented Django Reinhardt portrait traits: swept-back dark hair, small pencil moustache, mature expressive face and dapper 1930s/1940s suit. Supporting musicians are varied individual adults in historically informed Manouche jazz-circle clothing, not generic modern models. Expressive cartoon acting must not exaggerate ethnicity or use stereotypical racial features or costumes.
All heads, hands and instrument bodies inside frame, convincing basic instrument anatomy. No text, letters, numerals, music notation, logos, watermark, border, photorealism, gradients, dreamy sunset, hearts or soft romantic haze. Imagined editorial scene, not a claimed historical event. Entirely original composition, not a reproduction of any artist's print.
