DIY 251 Licks - How to make your own licks over a 251 chord progression

In this video, we look at how to make up our own 251 licks to use in our blowing. This method is thinking about each chord individually and how to approach it. Essentially, we play diatonically over the 2 chord and the 1 chord. It's the 5 chord where all the fun is had... Here we can appoint certain scales/arpeggios to the chord and then try and make the whole lick flow through the progression.

So tell me why are the notes that are written out sounding different to what I'm playing

Hey! Thanks for the comment. With all my videos, I talk in ‘concert pitch’. So when I say “C”, on alto it’s an “A” and on tenor it’s a “D”. An annoying transposition issue for saxes but it ain’t changing so it’s good to try and get your head around it. Obviously all the content applies to “your” key of C, but you just won’t be able to play along to this video. Hope that’s makes sense.
**edit** I've added a link in the description to an ALTO sax transposition to the PDF used in this video, so you can now play along if you want! (on alto)
