This video offers an exploration into different harmonic and rhythmic possibilities to use after you've started to develop a solo. Remember, start with a solid foundation first and then build on it. As Volvoxburger says, "Don't come in burning--let the groove lay in". After you've been grooving for a while, then you might want to think about adding some of the techniques displayed in this video. Note the heavy use of quick "side-stepping" into adjacent pentatonic scales, as well as exploring the 1/2 step - whole step (sometimes referred to as 1/2 diminished) scale. I have also decided to add a "B" section where I sustain and change the chords to a F#-7/B (Bsus7) then to a B7 add 13. I also throw a B7 with #11 in there. The improvisation is still all about phrasing that makes sense, tension and release, and telling a story (composing). I have added a short section at the end which briefly re-caps the scales and chords used in the video. A midi file of my solo and a PDF notation file of my solo and the .MP3 backing track used in this video are available here: http://www.Lot2Learn.com Notes: Thanks to Jamal and www.MIDIKeyz.com for the on-screen midi keyboard display.
