2-5-1 Jazz Practice - Medium Fast Swing Backing Track (C)

preview_player
Показать описание

Chord progression:

II: Dm7 I G7 I Cmaj7 I Cmaj7 :II

On the track you will of course hear more extended versions of the basic chords of this progression - as is common in jazz :)

In theory, you can play C major scale all over it.... outlining the chord tones/arpeggios:

Cmaj7 arpeggio = c e g b

Dmin7 arpeggio = d f a c

G7 arpeggio = g b d f

Playing C Major scale will result in C Ionian (Cmaj7 chords), D Dorian (Dm7 chords) and G Mixolydian (G7 chords) - all the same 7 notes...

Next up, try out some more advanced colours on the dominant chord (G7/G13) by using the

G diminished 1/2-1 tone scale = G Ab Bb B C# D E F (G)

HAPPY JAMMING!

Nice quality. Thanks for the heads up on your playing along in the beginning
I have found this type of practical exercise works best for me moving through scales and modes.
Thanks again.

Hi again, I hope you got my messages below with rhythm changes etc.  I was just thinking could you produce a hard bopping Bb jazz blues backing track at about 180bpm please as well.  I know you've done one at 200bpm but I feel it ia a bit too fast.  Real hard swinging bebop Bb jazz blues.  Oh yeah, don't you just love it!  Thanks, John.

Hello y'all. I am sorta new to playing with changes and am really ignorant. Are we changing chords like they "trade fours" or every four bars or is it every bar (4 beats)? Anyone have the time to set me straight I do appreciate it! thank you!
