In this lesson I show you how to use 4 different pentatonic scales on everything from modal tunes in minor to advanced jazz harmony. The pentatonics derived from melodic minor can be used on all harmony constructed from melodic minor! This would include altered dominants, major 7#5 chords, susb9 chords, it's so cool and easy to understand! When combining this with the secret jazz chord, you realize that the possibilities are almost endless. Enjoy the lesson and get some modern sounds into your playing!
