Try this with the dominant chords and then use it over just in time.
I also added a very scalular solo. So you could write the scales in here for next weeks class. It's all below.
Hello all,
Here is my last lesson on chord scales for now. This one focuses on minor and half-diminished chords, and where to play certain scales. I will also soon upload an etude to go along with these lessons, making use of the scales over a tune like "All of Me." Maybe I'll also do "Just in Time."
Let me know if there are any questions!
Hello everyone,
As with the previous lesson on dominant chord scales, I want to stress that just playing scales correctly won't necessarily produce the best improvisational content, and I think learning scales has a limited value. But there is value, and it's essentially figuring out what extensions happen on what chords.
A scale, at the end of the day, is just a 13th chord, with a 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 all put within one octave, and knowing this makes scales much more useful to me. So as you practice scales, remember this and figure out what chords they relate to.
Some choruses based upon Tony Miceli's written out chorus which is available for download from The Vibes Workshop. The first chorus is Tony's written out solo while the subsequent choruses are improvised using some of Tony's specific notes, phrases and ideas from his written out solo. Tony's solo was posted as "Orthinology Simple Solo" very recently.
Here is what I decided to call a tool box.
There is a solo, a chord study and a bass line for you to use as accompaniment.
Work hard on this there is a lot here!
