Coltrane Patterns - Why They Are Amazing
Рет қаралды 149,192
Күн бұрынWhat are Coltrane Patterns? Small 4 note fragments that you can use in your solos, and they are amazing because for each chord you solo over there are a lot and they are very easy to play. And this makes them great building blocks for jazz lines of pretty much any kind. What is not to love?

It's mind blowing that people are so anxious to be offended that they got mad simply because you used the term "Coltrane pattern" for the patterns commonly known by that name; the world is burning, we have a psychotic madman destroying America and recklessly accelerating the climate crisis as he lies his denial of (he applied for building a sea wall to protect one of his golf courses from sea level rise resulting from melting ice caps), but apparently what really pisses off some people is a nice friendly guy teaching great guitar lessons for free, calling 4 note patterns by their common name.

I'm not sure if this is a Sandole creation, something even older, or just a coincidence. Either way, "Coltrane pattern" is a fine name for them! Thank you so much for your wonderful work, Jens!

It might be worth mentioning that this 1-2-3-5 "Coltrane Pattern" was first recognized from his Giant Steps solo in a very fast tempo song with almost constant chord changes, 2 to a bar. It's broadly recognized as THE challenging song to conquer as a student. And Coltrane rips those 1-2-3-5 notes over the different chords so fluently. We learned this pattern back in the late '70's in Jazz Improv and Jazz Theory classes in college, and turned that pattern into a practice exercise (just playing that pattern, slowly at first, over the root of each chord in the song for the full chorus, then faster and then in different positions, etc.). We didn't call them "Coltrane Patterns" back then, just the 1-2-3-5 pattern, and of course it doesn't go anywhere near defining Coltrane. But for lack of a better name, until something better comes along, why not give tribute to the genius who established it? Here's a link to Giant Steps for all you students out there, where the 1-2-3-5 pattern is clearly heard - if your ear is fast enough! Warning: if you've never heard this then DO NOT give up your instrument and walk away shaking your head - most who play this song don't attempt it at quite this break-neck tempo. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gd15dplzxMrah2g.html

Slightly different approach but some of my FAVORITE patterns are four note patterns. Lydian 1 2 #4 5 (or 1 9 #11 5 if you’re a stickler about jazz harmony) played up the octaves sounds incredible. Same thing with the Phrygian 1 b2 4 5....so menacing and mysterious. They’re relatively uncommon patterns too so they make your colleagues/buddies on the bandstand go 🧐

I've been playing for 25 years, this is a wonderful simplification of a technique that will allow you to build some really great sounding licks that have the dexterity of people you admire, but by building it yourself you can inject your personality into it from the beginning. That in itself is a beautiful thing, and the sign of a good teacher. I see no problem with the name. It really helps to start at the shallow end of the pool with Coltrane because the deep end is like the Mariana Trench🤣

As often this is a great breakdown of such a mammoth musician’s methods! Great work Jens! Breaking complex large scales into “packets” is helpful for students. Recently I’ve been doing that as a neck learning exercise for my students. Taking a B major scale tune but using just 3 treble strings to start with. Starting at 1st fret. But each note packet I remove the 6th degree of that modal packet. Get creative with the remaining 6 notes in that mode (which starts on G#). Then learn the next mode from A# but again remove the 6th degree of THAT mode. So you end up with 7 modal packets in B but each has a different note removed to make hexatonic modal packets. The student learns the notes on the neck in digestible small packets on treble string. But the sonic possibilities with these 7 varying hexatonics is very wide and some sound really exotic even though they only come from B major. Next is to move to middle & bass strings in similar fashion. It’s huge possibilities for students learning the neck and modes and harmony.

that’s a really solid offering for fashioning tasteful and effective solo lines. It’s great how you can inject sophisticated sounding outside notes simply by transposing a pattern up or down a half step which could function as chromatic passing tones or as some sort of Neapolitan relationship to a dominant, or be like changing lanes on the freeway and move right back to the lane you were in.

I really like these as musical ideas for soloing material - especially intriguing was the slide slip around 7:54. That's really cool - not only can a beginner potentially sound like they are really playing jazz, but the basic target notes become very easy to see and play with when one is only dealing with 4 notes. Its almost like the shell chord version of scales.

I'm currently working on my tenor sax improvisation and am use the melodic structured book as my main book. The book is fantastic as a practice tool to get busy with but I'm finding it difficult to connect the four voicings into actual music.it just sounds like in practicing them back to back, not playing them all as a larger melody. This discouraged me and I haven't practiced in a while.this video really connects the voicings toghether and helps me acknowledge them collectively as a whole melody. He adds arpeggios and chromaticism to it and it sounds fantastic. There is a lot to learn from this video.i think I'll need to use lots of manuscript paper to study this, rather that just trying to play it on my 🎷.

Forget the patterns for a moment, that guitar has a sweet aged tone I’d give my right leg for!

Great lesson! I’ve also heard them called tetrachords or melodic cells. Whatever the name, they are slick!

I wonder what Coltrane called them?? Thanks for the excellent content. My guitar playing has improved so much using these videos and your books.

I think it can be a great game to use substitutions and explore, thank you. I use it random, but just a,few. I prefeer use menor melodics and myxo b13b19 with different roots in a same Dom7 and triads. use this patterns will expand my ear. thank you
