This is for a student of mine. But you guys can have it also.
Transcribe it and then think about what I'm playing and what the chord is. Can see the b9s #5s etc.

Two choruses of All The Things You Are with notation.
I made a cool play along and made a sort of etude. It's a chance for you guys to play over 2 simple chords and play some 4 mallet stuff and some lines. I will make a video and talk about the etude very soon.
But play this, learn this. Play along with me, and then use this stuff on your own. I use neighbor tones, bridges between whole steps. I.E. D Db C. If this was over a Dmin7 the important notes would be D and C and the bridge between them would be Db. Get it????
I've done many of these type of lessons. But you know what, they're super important. You have to spend time experimenting with voicings to build your chord vocab. It takes time and work!
Creating Your Own Etudes Pt. 2 by Behn Gillece
In previous lessons, we analyzed the bridge of rhythm changes and explored how to apply those ideas to other tunes. However, the A sections are just as important, as they follow common harmonic movements found in many standards. By practicing rhythm changes, you're effectively preparing yourself for countless other tunes.
In Part 8, we explore the altered scale (seventh mode of melodic minor) as a way to create tension over dominant chords before resolving back to the tonic or next chord. This scale contains altered chord tones—â™9, ♯9, ♯11, and â™13—which provide a wide palette of colors for jazz soloing.
