    I am learning a lot from you, I think. I am familiar with many of the concepts, but you really help put things into context and make them practical. The test is when I try to use them independent of watching you or playing the particular songs. But, everything seems so much more straight forward while watching for sure.

    Sandra the jazz magician! Nice explanation of a very useful trick! I’ve actually been working on incorporating locrian lines with these types of arps. And, applying to 9th chords (ie, Dbm7b5 as an A9). Works great in that context, over blues forms too! I love how you relate all the chord tones to the arpeggio lines - while making the changes. Great lesson!

    Wie gets? Gutten nacht , von Panama. Just today I came up with a scale for your lesson. It is actually for ii v i in Dm6. I always use m6 for m7ths. The notes are c c# d e f g a Bb. As you can see it’s an 8 note scale. I’m coming from a Barry Harris background. One of the things that got me to develop the approach, is that depending on what you do with the Bb as arpeggio within the scale can give you interesting sounds. Bb m(maj7) as opposed to Bbmaj7. For instance. I arppegiate the Bbm(maj7) Bb Db F A then to C Bb G Eb then to D or F. I would very likely end on a B due to my love the 6th but I would have to prepare it before the initial arpegio to have it stand out. Somewhere along the line I learned that you start a phrase a whole step belo the half diminished Em7b5, the notes would be D E G A Bb, that would give you the colors of the half dim. It does… Barry has a thing that is called 5432. Serves the same purpose. A starting point for another phrase. Hey great work you doing, and if you get the chance, get back to me. Straight ahead.

    • @GuitarversumSandraSherman
      @GuitarversumSandraSherman  Год назад

      I don't get how you like the Dm6 Sound, but then choose to play a scale that has a b6 in it. I'm not really into the Harris Method, since I'm a dorian thinker, not a mixo one.

I have Cm, D half dim, E flat, Fm, Gm, A flat and B flat.
