Hey
This is Blue in Green. I break up this impro etude in two videos.
The first video show how I can break the chord into arpeggios and the second is how to brake the chord into the bass note and the others notes of the chord. This is not a lesson and I really would appreciate your opinion (especially from the pros).

Thanks a lot
Dimitris

hey
Giant steps take 2 using the 3 pentatonics (f sharp / d / b flat) which I learned from Ed Saindon and John Swana.

thanks

Ok, here's the plan;

We'll study the tune Alone Together and we'll build etudes around the tune focusing on these aspects.

dampening
octaves
block chords
independence

Ready set go.

Here's something I've been working on, see if you find it useful.

In this etude, I wanted to stick with the theme of surrounding the 5th, regardless of chord quality, since the fifth belongs in almost any quality. It's interesting to see how many times you can work in a theme like that.

Take a look at this etude over the changes to "How High The Moon."
