Short Melodic Sketch #12 (Daily Practice Ideas and Phrases) - "Triad Quilts ala Matini" + backing tracks

With the material presented here I seek to illustrate some of the ideas and ways in which I like to practice and develop both the melodic and harmonic characters of the instrument.

These are very short phrases that combine different melodic/harmonic and technical elements to make for a fun, musical and challenging way to practice.

Sketch #12 uses melodic construction concepts from my "Triad Quilt" and "Chromatic Methenyisms" book series in creating a long and highly chromatic line in the style of Pat Metheny over an Amin9 harmony.

Materials Included:

Short Melodic Sketch #12 Study (PDF file - TAB and Standard Notation).

Backing Tracks (at tempo and slowed down).

HD Video of the melodic phrase at tempo and slowed down.
