Ready to boost your jazz piano improvisation book (mouse click the up coming document) improvisation abilities for the piano? Extra merely, if you're playing a tune that's in swing time, then you're already playing to a triplet feel (you're thinking of that each beat is divided into three 8th note triplets - and every off-beat you play is postponed and played on the third triplet note (so you're not even playing two evenly spaced eighth notes to begin with).
So rather than playing 2 eight notes straight, which would certainly last one quarter note ('one' - 'and'), you can separate that quarter note right into three '8th note triplet' notes - where each note of the triplet coincides length. The initial improvisation strategy is 'chord tone soloing', which means to compose tunes making use of the 4 chord tones of the chord (1 3 5 7).
For this to work, it needs to be the following note up within the scale that the songs remains in. This provides you 5 notes to play from over each chord (1 3 5 7 9) - which is plenty. This can be related to any note size (half note, quarter note, eighth note) - yet when soloing, it's generally put on eighth notes.
Merely come before any chord tone by playing the note a half-step below. To do this, stroll up in half-steps (with the entire chromatic scale), and make note of all the notes that aren't in your present scale. Cm7 expression (7 9 3 5) with single melody note (C) played to fascinating rhythm.
Now you might play this 5 note range (the wrong notes) over the very same C small 7 chord in your left hand. With this method you just play the exact same notes that you're currently playing in the chord. Chord range above - half-step below - target note (e.g. E - C# - D).
NOTE: You also get a great collection of steps to play, from 7 - 1 - 9 - 3 - if you intend to play a brief scale in your solo. Nonetheless, to quit your having fun from appearing predictable (and burst out of 8th note pattern), you require to differ the rhythms once in a while.
