Short Harmonic Sketch #1 (Wild ii-V7-I) Sus4 Re-Harmonization

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.

In Sketch #1 (harmonic) I want to illustrate a concept I use often in my harmonic playing over ii-V7-I progressions. If we take all three chords of such progression and represent them as SUS4 harmonies we open up a whole different textural landscape to be explored.
