I really like your "fuzzyness bebop line" term, sometimes direct lines are what we want. Best coltrane solo IMO is on Crescent, not the most technical but oh boy that emotion!
Yes Coltrane is amazing in applying directness. Where as for example March, Mark Turner can be very chromatic. I very much like both, but keep coming back to Coltrane! All the best and have a great practice!
regarding the G on the down beat over the Bb7, firstly it is a chord tone, it's the 13th, or 6th, both of which are commonly used extensions in dominant chords. secondly, it's a dominant chord, pretty much any note, bar the major 7th, can be a chord tone.
There is a distinct difference between chord notes and extensions. Else all chords would have the same functions and just sound like the scale and have no harmonic difference from other chords. Yes the 6/13 is very commonly used extension indeed -true. But my angle in this video is the basic chord notes. I always make a clear difference between basic chord notes and extensions.
Thank you Oscar! I really hope I can give something back to the music I have enjoyed and learned! TIP: You are welcome to check out the 1000+ pages on the Patreon channel: www.patreon.com/sorenballegaardsaxophonelessons
@@sorenballegaardmusic i was ending to just adding passing notes , then with this video i understand that to sound bebop there isn't just a way , Coltrane found his way
I'm 1:40 right now. I think he approaches target notes with the whole tone scale. He liked the whole tone scale and major thirds as examplified by giant steps. I have no way to prove this. Cheers.
Nice observation Rich! Coltrane was amazing in his way of making the jazz music sound like his own and turn the bebop language into this more direct approach! Love it!
That is a great study. he is just playing outside - outside is everything besides diatonic in the chords. So outside is not a definition of a function - outside is so much. The general thought of playing outside is longer lines - one bar or more - so bigger than one b13 etc. Outside would be chromatic triads moving towards the tonic. Playing Bbm7 Eb7 Abm7 Db7 to C7 on a II-V-I because it sounds like you are completely off key. There is quite a lot of terms in the outside sound - Michael Brecker would move patterns around in minor or major thirds to make the outside sound. Let me know if this helps :)
I dislike the notion of "favorite" or best" solo, especially from a titanic musical force such as Coltrane. However, I will say that the solos of Crescent and, Wise One are among the most entrancing of the period from 1964 on.
They are indeed master pieces. The best, yes it's a life time travel through music, and we are always discovering. Maybe not able to choose the best, but maybe best at the moment. Love it thank you
Loooove his solo on the believer tune, give me thrill every time
Coltrane was amazing, and still amazes me. His playing keeps giving new ideas
Chim Chim Cheree is fantastic! I’d love your take on that Coltrane era!
Love this era too. This week working out a video on Coltrane's pentatonic and 4 note cell approach. Really looking forward to post on Friday
Lovely work Søren! 🤗👍
Thank you so much
I like the solo on "so what". It sounds very versatile.
Coltrane is/was a beast and still so inspiring.
When listening to any record of his I always find some details that amazes me.
Crazy!
Freddie the Freeloader! No one better to study patterns than Coltrane.
Right on. Amazing sounds and patterns
I love solo on Cousin Mary from giant steps. So simple (a blues), but so good !
Blues and Coltrane is one thing. I love it everytime I hear his blues enterpretations.
Did you check out Coltrane PLays the Blues - the album?
@@sorenballegaardmusic a long time ago ... I'll take another listen!
No wonder Trane sounds so different! Thanks for the video 😊
Trane is just out of this world and invented is own thing.
Love his playing
@@sorenballegaardmusic So true! Inspired me a lot too!
Inspiring is so great - drop into music and just listen and apply!
These videos are great Soren. Thanks!
Thank you so much - I try to inspire to more music!

All solos
So true so true!
Great, I'm studying Coltrane's patterns, it seems that he had many ways of sounding, there are many, he just plays "outside" .. how is that?
That is a great study.

But trane studied Bird. Once learnt ; can't be forgotten
We should all study both Trane and Bird - those are some great corner stones of jazz and will be forever great!
Two bass hit with miles and adderly
Love that record. All of the tracks sounds amazing!
👏👏👏😉🎷
Coltrane always inspires me!
All the best!
