Utilizar escalas de acordes

Nesta lição, exploraremos os jargões do improvisador. Identificaremos as escalas de acordes mais comuns e o tipo de harmonia a qual elas se relacionam, incluindo maior, menor e o acorde de sétima da dominante

Aprenda os conceitos básicos de improvisação com Gary Burton, um dos improvisadores mais renomados do mundo do jazz, incluindo os processos mentais, melódicos e harmônicos que contribuem com as habilidades instintivas que um improvisador põe em prática ao realizar um solo. Embora muitas pessoas sejam fãs de jazz e compreendam que os músicos estão frequentemente "compondo" as notas que tocam durante uma apresentação, a maioria das pessoas — o que geralmente inclui os próprios músicos que estão aprendendo a improvisar — não sabe com clareza quais são os processos exatos que ocorrem e fazem isso tudo acontecer. O objetivo deste curso é apresentar os conceitos básicos da improvisação moderna e mostrar como dominar as diferentes habilidades musicais e mentais envolvidas. O autor do curso, Gary Burton, codifica uma abordagem muito procurada da improvisação, a qual tem sido o centro do currículo da Berklee College of Music há décadas. Os alunos que concluírem esse curso saberão o que e como praticar os diversos aspectos da improvisação, além de compreenderem como o improvisador se comunica espontaneamente com os ouvintes por meio de suas criações musicais.

Transcrição

Okay, that's all ten scales,

these commonly occurring scales that we need to know really well.

So, let's review what we're supposed to be doing with them.

We want to assimilate them using their two characteristics,

the pattern that they make and the sound that they make.

Now, when I say pattern,

[MUSIC]

It's the shape of the scale.

And some people always ask well wait a minute, I don't play the vibraphone or

the piano where the notes are laid out in front of you.

I play the saxophone.

What am I supposed to do?

Well, the truth is every instrument, every player of every instrument.

Has a way of picturing groups of notes, whether it's a chord outline or a scale.

And I've often asked players of other instruments, in fact,

how do they picture a scale or a group of notes?

And I'll tell you that most of them answer,

they picture them on the piano keyboard, even if they don't really play the piano.

That seems to be a common way of thinking about them.

Some people will say I picture them written out on manuscript paper.

And some people, saxophone players for instance,

tend to say I picture the fingering of running the scale,

when I think of how do I picture a seven, eight note run of notes of scale.

I picture the fingerings real quickly.

However you do it, you will have some way of visualizing the scales and

the shape that they have.

And you'll hear the sound of the scales.

And its those two characteristics that let us form a memory that we can recall.

So, with any new scale,

[MUSIC]

Find the notes and then,

[MUSIC]

Ramble around, make different combinations.

[MUSIC]

Use the whole range of your instrument, don't just stay in one octave,

I've said that several times already.

[MUSIC]

Speed is not an issue.

It doesn't matter if you can play them faster and faster and faster.

What matters is are you assimilating the memory of this group of notes and

different ways to combine the notes in to different combinations.

So that's what you should be doing with every new song that you learn or practice.

Check out the chord symbols and

make sure that you are familiar with the chord scale that goes with each one.

In addition, if you're playing, let's say this chord is an E flat minor seven,

and the scale is the Dorian and you're playing around on it.

[MUSIC]

Be aware that it is an E-flat minor seven chord even though you're

playing around on the scale cuz we have to actually be using not

only the chord tones but the chord scale as we play it to a harmony.

So being aware of the chord tones as well as the scale

tones is important as usual to you as an improviser as well.

So for this week's assignment.

I'm gonna ask for you to demonstrate some of these chord scales.

I'm gonna give you six of them, and ask you to do just what I've been doing here.

Play the basic scale, and then start,

[MUSIC]

Bouncing around playing different combinations.

Be creative but remember that what you're trying to show me is that

you're comfortable playing around on each of these scales.

So record that and upload it to the site.

And I'll see you next week.
