  • The concept of superimposing a melodic fragment over different kinds of harmony is an amazingly powerful tool to develop and employ creatively when improvising.

    Your tone across the range of your instrument is really gorgeous. Love your phrasing, too. It never sounds like you're just running dry exercises.BTW, I always loved Patti Austin's version of "Cry Me a River."

    I can superimpose the " Cry me a river" riff over a A7#5 starting from E#...after the E7b5 it sounds good for me and makes an endlessly chord progression...I am right? Thanks for all mister Jazz duets! God Bless you

    6:20 --> In D7#9 you write #9 (E#) as the minor third (F). Enharmonic is correct but not the note acording to the main chord (D7#9). Otherwise excelent videos and sound, learning a lot thanks

    There is no such thing as a "hack". There are skills and techniques. Calling a technique a "hack" discredits the effort of the player. Otherwise, great video and well explained. #MUSIClife

    • @Farhang27
      @Farhang27 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I totally agree with you, but I think in this and lots of other cases the term "hack" is a kind of clickbait word in order to get more views. I don't like it much but if the content is as good as this I can get along with that.

  • @thelonious-dx9vi
    @thelonious-dx9vi 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cheers, this is great stuff. I think this lick is also perfect as a jumping-off point into melodic minor modes, as it clearly outlines that scale, behaving as the "correct" mode with each chord type as you've applied it here. It even conveys the avoid note/hexatonic angle. It's really all right here, built into this CMAR lick. On guitar (which I play), this could even anchor your fingering system for MM scale/modes up and down the neck -- i.e. learn the lick in all positions, then fill in the three remaining scale tones around those shapes. Then 11 keys to go. Anyway, this is really valuable teaching, is mainly what I'm saying 😉

    Love this lick, been using it since I first got into jazz. It’ll definitely pop up on my channel videos somewhere.
    P.s. this lick is reminiscent of a short melody I once heard on a Jimmy Neutron Movie where they first meet the villain “Beautiful Gorgeous”. Transcribed it as a kid and didn’t know it was just a minor triad arpeggiated and landing on the 9 instead of the root.
    P.s.s. BEAUTIFUL SOPRANO TONE!
