Attention Guitarists: Improvisation is is the art of composing in the moment with freedom of expression. Do you want to get on the fast track to improvisation in modern jazz style?
The second book in the “Master Arpeggio System for Jazz Improvisation Series” continues where the first book left off. We continue to work smarter, not harder with this efficient method—a navigation system—for learning to improvise in a jazz context that bypasses boring, tedious exercises and endless music theory so we can play now and think later. Minor & More teaches you to:
Use minor and harmonic minor sounds to improvise over minor ii-V-i changes.
Use triads and arpeggios, shell voice arpeggios, quartal arpeggios, triad and arpeggio inversions, scales, pentatonic scales and chromaticism to create interesting, sophisticated modern lines.
Use voice-leading and target tones automatically without tons of memorization exercises.
Use tension and resolution skillfully to create inside and outside sounds in your playing.
Use diminished sounds for more interesting lines.
Play over common jazz turnarounds so you’ll be prepared to tackle the chord progressions found in traditional tonal jazz standards where you’re moving through different key centers.
Apply everything from the first two books in a solo over 24 bars of a 12 bar jazz blues.
