Concepts for Modal Playing with John Stowell and Juan Dhas, Part 1

In this class, John and Juan begin with some embellishments and triads derived from the Dorian mode played over a single minor chord. They then reference/demonstrate additional harmony that can be applied in a modal context. Some of the harmony covered is: major triads, melodic minor, implied V chords, the use of tension and release, and simple progressions/turnarounds superimposed over a single minor chord. Sub-topic 1 - Chord voicings as templates for single-line playing. Sub-topic 2 - Open string voicings Sub-topic 3 - Specific tension/release strategies. Categories:
