TRIAD QUILT ii-V-i Phrases (minor keys) - Creative "Melodic Minor" Add9 Triad (3125) Melodic Vocabulary

In this study I present a few different ways in which one can apply the concepts from my “TRIAD QUILT - Creative Add9 Triad (3125) Exercises and Phrases” book to create intricate modern sounding melodic ideas and passages over a ii-V-i progression in a minor key.

Here I am exclusively using such concepts within the melodic minor scale as it is one of the great tools we have when playing over the three different chords of our minor ii-V-i.

These melodic ideas are not only great to expand your improvisatory vocabulary but they are extremely helpful for developing great technique and finger independence as they present unique set of challenges for both hands.

In the accompanying video you will be able to see and hear each phrase at tempo as well as slowed down.

All examples are presented over a ii-V-i progression in the key of C minor but I strongly advise to transpose and practice these phrases in all 12 keys.
