      Charlie, thanks for taking the time to write! Fantastic!! I've been such a fan of your fathers playing for so long. I'm pleased to know that his legacy is moving along. The recordings speak for themselves of course, but so nice to hear from you. Let me know if there is anything I can do to support Monk, Charlie Sr. and their great music!!

    I just tried this in my lesson soloing over the changes to a Jazz Blues progression. My teacher commented that it sounded good and fit nicely with the changes. I had to admit that I kind of cheated and ripped the idea straight from Digging Deeper. It turns out we are both avid viewers of this channel. Thanks again Jeff. This tip is an absolute keeper!

      Fantastic! So glad this worked for you, and I'm happy that your teacher is a fan of Digging Deeper as well. NICE!

    Another great video. I can't be reminded often enough that breaking things down into really small parts is how one really internalizes concepts. The tritone concept is easy to work with on a 12 bar blues, but maybe not on "Over the Rainbow" :). BTW, just to give you an idea of how slow I am, I was half way through the video before I figured out that a wise donkey is really just a smart-ass. Does that make me a dumb-ass? Oh well....

      Really, the Digging Deeper videos are really all about the shirts. Occasional jazz knowledge too! Glad you enjoyed this. And while you are correct about the blues being such a good framework for this tritone work, DO try a solo a standard like "Over The Rainbow" with ONLY 3rds and 7ths. You'll see, after you get comfortable with it, that it works just as well.

    The tritone is all over West Side Story like a rash; Maria, Something’s Coming, Cool. The Overture. It’s quality doesn’t change when it inverts either so a diminished 5th becomes an augmented 4th and vice versa. So the same interval can imply 7th over 3rd or 3rd over 7th both resolving differently. A really cool interval. You can understand why it appealed to Monk’s personality.

      Every word spot on! Thanks for taking the time to write, brother!

    interesting coincidence. I'm playing "Straight, No Chaser" tomorrow at rehearsal. And when it comes to my solo, I usually just do the G blues with all my old tired tricks. Now I have a cool tool to "monk-ify" (or would that be "Theloni-ize"), my solo, way less notes too! (which I appreciate at 200bmp)

    • @JeffAntoniukEducator
      @JeffAntoniukEducator  5 лет назад +1

      So, this will be interesting. See if anyone mentions anything about this (it's a GREAT way to begin your solo, a chorus or two, before getting into "your material). See if you get a comment or two, or a couple *looks* as you are playing. I'm going to lay money down (Canadian Dollars) that you DO.

    I started listening to Monk in the 60's, my adjective for his music would be "edgy." Charlie Rouse: fantastic! That 3rd - 7th really helps to recreate that Monk color. My work on Blue Monk will be greatly improved. Thanks.

      Good deal, Rob. Glad this helps. Let me know how this works for you over time.

    6 is a handful?? It would be nice to have an extra pinky while playing saxophone!

      Actually, if we are trying to sound like Monk (or Charlie Rouse), I think having FEWER fingers would be the way to go . . . more space!! 😂

    Diabolus en musica is one name for it. I think the penalty for playing it was worse that getting kicked out of church. Why is it called a tritone when there are just two notes?

    • @JeffAntoniukEducator
      @JeffAntoniukEducator  5 лет назад +1

      What is the DISTANCE between those two notes? C to F# say? Three whole tones. A tri-tone.
