Scott McGill Guitar Session on Giant Steps Improvisation Lesson-Coltrane Changes
Рет қаралды 6,333
Күн бұрынThis session demonstrates improvisation concepts on the John Coltrane tune "Giant Steps".
I demonstrate some technical and practical techniques for playing over the tune at slow and original Coltrane fast tempos and stress form and rhythmic phrasing so your playing stays in time and you do not get lost within the form.
The approach is less complicated and theoretical and more based on playing the tune at tempo in a rehearsal or performance situation.
I have played and recorded with musicians as Bassists Michael Manring and Percy Jones, Producers Neil Kernon and David Torn. Keyboardist Jordan Rudess from Dream Theater played on two tunes of my 2001 disc "Addition By Subtraction" as well.

Great lesson as you are extremely informative and helpful. Many of players out there, I'm sure have grappled with trying to solo over these chord changes that we all know as "Giant Steps!" Thanks again and keep up the great work.

Thank you so much for this lesson Scott.I really appreciate it.This is really helpful for players like me who have primarily listened to Shredders and practiced their 3 nps scale forms all over the neck.I really liked how you used 3 different major scales and used the famous 3nps forms with little to no chromaticism in your lines and still sounded so musical.I would like to take some lessons from you especially on these types of Jazz lessons.Thanks again for this
