如果你是一個沒有時間練琴的人，你更應該在練琴的時候，
練一些有音樂性的東西，而不是練一些無聊的技巧練習。
所以今天這個練習可以幫助你增加音樂性，並且讓你的音樂性聽力更強。
隨機選一個動機（Tony是演奏三個音開離位置的動機）
仔細聽看看這些音想要移動到哪一個調性哪一個音，不要有巨大的音成跳躍移動，
盡量保持小音程距離的移動。
從這個練習你會慢慢增進你的音樂性聽力。

This is a new lesson series I'm undertaking. It started out with me being dissatisfied with not being able to play longer melodic lines over chord changes. The basic idea is to break a tune into the most rhythmically simple components and build it up over time. This lesson starts with whole notes and the goal is to work up to 16th notes.

We are focusing on three things:

這個練習可以幫助你止音的技巧、即興更加旋律性。
選一個音，作為固定低音，比如說C
試著找出含有這個音的音階，做單旋律的即興，同時演奏完一個音，
就止掉那個音。保持乾淨的旋律。
含有這個音的音階，比如說
C major
Db major
Bb major
G major
F major
F# Lydian
A minor……
你可以同時練習止音技巧、即興更有旋律性、也可以研究釐清一些音樂理論。

Learn this. Memorize it and then we can talk about it!

For many years now, I've been working with a local arts organization, the Hopkinton Center for the Arts (https://hopartscenter.org/). For the past several years I've organized what we've called the Sunset Jazz Concert series -- 6 to 8 outdoor jazz concerts during the summers on Saturday nights.

Two years ago, through some herculean fund raising, the HCA managed to complete building a new performance/gallery/instruction facility. At this time I added a monthly jam session, now on the 2nd Friday night of each month.

選兩個小調和弦
Aminor(A,E,C,G) Bminor(B, F#, D, A)
然後去到Cminor(C,G, Eb, Bb)
試著自己找出tony演奏的這一系列和弦。

保持這樣的Voicing（和聲配置），然後只演奏root和3rd

可以自己創造出不同音的組合，創造出一個groove，
保持固定的Voicing（和聲配置），然後只演奏root和3rd
或是
R, 5th, 2nd, 3rd
或
R, 2nd, 3rd,
……….
這個練習可以幫助你練習技巧，協調性, 了解更多和聲配置。

選幾個和弦，play in time, 簡單的小練習，，可以練習很多東西，練習抓到groove and feel。
比如選一系列Fminor的和弦：
Root, 7th, 3rd, 5th 平行上行。
試著維持這樣的音程關係。
F, Eb, Ab, C
G, F, Bb, D
Ab, F, C, Eb
Bb, G, D, F
C, Ab, Eb, F
D, Bb, F, G
……….
可以只loop前四個和弦，然後play a groove in time(選一個節奏型態，定速演奏)，甚至演奏一些簡單的solo, 維持bass音。
＊play a groove in time(選一個節奏型態，定速演奏)時，就算有一點miss掉音，也還是保持節奏感。
也可以只演奏bass音（一路上行），然後solo。
