Your tone across the range of your instrument is really gorgeous. Love your phrasing, too. It never sounds like you're just running dry exercises.BTW, I always loved Patti Austin's version of "Cry Me a River."

@thelonious-dx9vi 3 жыл бұрын
Cheers, this is great stuff. I think this lick is also perfect as a jumping-off point into melodic minor modes, as it clearly outlines that scale, behaving as the "correct" mode with each chord type as you've applied it here. It even conveys the avoid note/hexatonic angle. It's really all right here, built into this CMAR lick. On guitar (which I play), this could even anchor your fingering system for MM scale/modes up and down the neck -- i.e. learn the lick in all positions, then fill in the three remaining scale tones around those shapes. Then 11 keys to go. Anyway, this is really valuable teaching, is mainly what I'm saying 😉

amazing sound! brass instruments are my (second) best... (I am a guitar player! and in "extreme" genres, but I dig so much in jazz! maybe it's my degree in contemporary music that helps me understand the theory, but I enjoy jazz music as much as black or death metal!). I love your content!

Love this lick, been using it since I first got into jazz. It’ll definitely pop up on my channel videos somewhere. P.s. this lick is reminiscent of a short melody I once heard on a Jimmy Neutron Movie where they first meet the villain “Beautiful Gorgeous”. Transcribed it as a kid and didn’t know it was just a minor triad arpeggiated and landing on the 9 instead of the root. P.s.s. BEAUTIFUL SOPRANO TONE!

Along these lines, Superstar by the Carpenters leads off on the 9th. Same with Wild is the Wind. It would be interesting to apply this harmonisation technique to a lot of covers, I guess.
