🔴 ALL OF ME : how to start soloing with arpeggios 🎸 Practical exercises to help you make phrases

🎵Creating musical phrases over a jazz standard like 'All of Me' can be daunting. We often hear that just play arpeggios over the chords, but how do you translate an arpeggio shape on the fingerboard into a musical phrase that doesn't sound like you are just running arpeggios? Yet, so many of the greats solos are largely comprised of arpeggios/chord tones.
In today's lesson I use the first 8 bars of the swinging standard 'All of Me' and show you to move practically from using arpeggios as they are into phrases that flow with the chords. I break this down into:
🔴 Firstly knowing the arpeggios you need
🔴 How to approach learning them (specifically internalising the sound)
🔴 How you need to find the notes that are close together between chords
The above is by no means a quick process, but with work it means you can go beyond playing licks and arpeggios and make music in an authentic way.

Just wanted to comment that this helped me make my first "breakthrough" in soloing last night. Not perfect, but was able to intuitively solo

You have opened up some great improv ideas for me. I have known about chord tones for a long time but never actively used them.

@jazzguitarwithandy 3 жыл бұрын

They are a game change when it comes to soloing. For me, you should be able to hear the chord changes in your soloing without any backing. That's the long term aim with this kind of practice.

Another great lesson Andy! The Chord tone approach has always made the most sense to me in approaching soloing. I definitely need to learn my arpeggio's and fretboard better. Thanks and Best Wishes! :)

I agree Bill. Especially as when it boils down to it, even if you use scales, the chord tones are the notes to target! You'll never regret getting to know your arpeggios better!

Can you explain your diminished run on 0:42 of the video? How do you know which diminished chord to play?

@jazzguitarwithandy Жыл бұрын

That's over an A7 and it's thinking of a diminished chord as being a Dom 7b9. A7b9 = A C# E G Bb. Bb dim = Bb, C#,E,G = A7 without a root. What I'm doing in the video is using a D7 shape XXXX323 for Bb, C# and G. I then move up a minor third XXX656 for C#,E,Bb and if you keep moving up by that distance you will get that A7b9 sound.

@michaelrichardson2359 Жыл бұрын

Morning Andy. At the risk of sounding brutally ignorant and I ask the indulgence of the other commentators; I’m challenged by the E7 chord. If I’m correct E7 is a major scale with 4 sharps, so I see the “G” is sharp but why isn’t the “D”? Thank you! I’ll climb back into my shell now.

@jazzguitarwithandy Жыл бұрын

Great question Michael. That's because E7 is a chord from the key of A major which has three sharps (F#, C# and G#). The chord is: E, G#, B and D, built from the A major scale. Hope that answers your question.

@danig77 Жыл бұрын

hello!!! Thank you for your videos, they are helping me a lot. I would like to ask you a question: I play blues rock and I have some fluency with 1-4-5, it is easy for me to use dominant chords/arpeggios and do BB KING or Albert style. I find it a little difficult when I try 2-5-1 because I play only arpeggios or play only scales, it doesn't sound fluid and natural. I can play arpeggios in 16th notes and connect arpeggios for close notes but I don't know why it doesn't sound natural. I also tell you that I don't think in notes, I visualize the neck at intervals, I think in numbers. can you give me some advice so when i play 2-5-1 it sounds a little better. thanks a lot

@jazzguitarwithandy Жыл бұрын

Thank you. I think the ingredient you might be missing is rhythm by the sounds of it. I think all of the above sounds like you are practicing important things, but it has at some point to turn into music. For me, a couple of things I'd try: *sing what you play - don't just do stuff your fingers know *focus on a melody - maybe play it on the ii, and then develop it on the V before closing the idea off on the I *Think about different rhythms you could use - don't be afraid of including space also.
