Suggested Course of Study

38m
Here we take a deep dive into what makes the harmonic minor scale such an important part of the jazz language, particularly in regard to bebop musicians like Charlie Parker, Clifford Brown and a host of others. A very important lesson on how to use this sound on dominant chords utilizing the Cole Porter tune What is This Thing Called Love. Essential in my opinion. PDF and backing track included.
