Publisher's Synopsis
As part of my jazz series, I write phrasing books about the chords of most common types. Here's one about the m7b5 chord. These phrases came to me during improvisation sessions. Despite the fact that they are purely spontaneous, they cannot be treated as theoretical examples derived from scales or any other musical pattern material. Nevertheless, you should try to analyze them in order to gain a deeper understanding of the process that led to their development.
In addition to being able to be used in any style, they can also be tested in a wide range of octaves as well as transported to another key, or any harmonic field to explore new sounds. In the book, dynamics and accents are not detailed on purpose so the player is given freedom to experiment. A mp3 folder is included for download by email.
