CHORD SOLI (Chordal Soloing Phrases Over a I VI7 ii V7 Progression)

In this chordal study my main goal is to explore some of the techniques, chord voicings and ways in which we can capture on the guitar the densely rich harmonic textures present in reed and brass section "soli" playing within the big band style and idiom.  

The study explores five different "8 measure" chordal phrases over a basic I VI7 ii V7 progression in the key of C major. Each phrase utilizes a different set of harmonic devices for coloration, chromatic harmonic motion and secondary harmonic cadences that help us paint a much more vivid and captivating sonic landscape over  the basic harmony at play.
