Have you ever wondered what each scale degree does and how they express relative to the key and chord? This lesson is going to be somewhat of a "get to know" your scale degrees. Each of these notes represent and express a quality. Now... when you understand and know how to use them, your improv will become more telling and descriptive based on your own intentions.

As usual, the natural teacher in you is shining through, Marc-Andre. The Aebersold "chord-scale" pairing system has blocked my progress in improvisation for YEARS! During live improvisation on the bandstand, the cognitive load has to be minimal and response time has to be quick. If the mind is too busy decoding "which scale or mode should I use for this upcoming chord", the brain time can cause "improviser lag" and confuse the band's tempo. Narrowing to the most important tones ( 3rds, 7ths) is quicker and a great choice to "get going" quickly - at least providing a safety net. No more Scrabbling ! Voila we have an instant skeleton for a solo and the other scale or coulour notes will follow naturally. Thanks for this reminder.
Well said!
Super Marc! Thirds resolve to sevenths resolve to thirds…. You’re a great player and more importantly, a great teacher! Thanks for creating the videos.
Wow one of the best lessons ever
Thank you!
@@jazzguitar Thank you so much for your intellectual generosity...
Excellent
That looks great sir Mark!
I believe this is more of a challenge than it seems. This is the kind of information that can truly accelerate my move towards being a jazz jammer. Great direction here Marc **. Thanks
Woow, much easier and work well, thank you!
Thanks for watching :)
Excellent, Marc, you’re an important and much needed resource for us who are struggling!
Thank you for your kind words :) Glad to help!
These resolution lessons are really opening things up for me...🙏🏼
Glad it helped :)
Great lesson,amazing material,teacher Marc,you are a great teacher and also a great musician ,thank you again for this awesome lesson.
Thank you Hector :)
Excellent tips!
Glad it was helpful!
Marc - great lesson. Love the focus… become proficient in targeting the 3rds on the chord changes, in conjunction with perhaps enclosures, before trying to incorporate too many other ideas into one’s soloing. Can you comment on the best methods to knowing and finding the 3rds of all chords all over the neck? Is it by intervalic relationships in arpeggios or chord shapes or just raw memorization of the names of the 3rds for every chord and where they are located all over the fret board… or is it a combination of the two?
Great question -- I personally think, C major 9 as x3243x, right? So the third I can already visualize on the D string. Then there's the high version, same process ... I think of Cmaj7 as 8x998x, right? The third is already visualized ion the G string. That's the basic tenet of how I like to visualize the fretboard :)
@@jazzguitar If I may summarize: a) know the chord shapes (including colors and extensions) all over the neck, b) know where the 3rds are located for each of these shapes. Simple. I know all of the chord shapes… or at least most of them… but I never memorized where the root, 3rd, or 5th is located… duh. I will start doing this immediately. Thanks again Marc. I think this thread demonstrates how having a great coach and teacher can accelerate one’s progress. Do you do one on one check-ups with students on an as need basis (pre scheduled)?
Yes, that's a great summary. I would say except "all over the neck". I attempt to keep visualizing my 3rd degrees on the G and D strings (only!) when I start working on a song/progression. So it's only "two information" I have to hold in my brain. The rest of the fretboard unlocks itself after that :)
Thanks again .
Salut Marc !
Je suis tombé sur ta vidéo par hasard. Good job !
Je vais repasser de temps en temps pour voir où tu en es.
Take care man!
Merci d'être passé!
Very helpful! Thanks! 👍
Thanx Marc great vid
Thank you!
This was very helpful
Thanks for watching!
I enjoy your lessons!
Thank you kindly
What drills did you do to practice the concepts?
Great explaination, Marc!
Thanks! 😃
Hi, Marc, another great video, thanks! I have a beginner question, though. I am starting practice soloing in a very simple way, like 12-bar blues of A7, D7, E7. I combine pentatonic minor scale and major 7th arpeggios. Now, I have problem: what is the third note? C, C#, D? Probably it will be clear to me after some more classes, but right now it’s still a puzzle.
Hi! The third of the tonic/i chord, A7, is C#.
Question? I'm I right the 3rd is either major or minor of the next chord in the tune.
Yes, the minor third is a half step lower than the major third. This is why you can quickly recognize if the interval is major or minor by hearing the 3rd.
Hello Marc Has been awhile. Jack Meridian Idaho
Hey Jack! Thanks for dropping by :)
