How to Solo "Outside" without sounding like you're LOST!

Музыка

In this lesson I unravel the mystery of playing "outside" without sounding like you made a mistake or got lost in the changes. Now, if you are new to jazz and have no clue what playing "outside" is, let me just briefly sum it up as temporarily improvising over different chord changes other than those written, in order to purposefully create a strong sense of tension and dissonance. In this video you will learn all about "side slipping" using regular scales, as well as pentatonics.
You hear this concept in the playing of many post bop jazz musicians such as John Coltrane, later Miles Davis recordings, Herbie Hancock and of course guitarists such as John Scofield and Pat Metheny. But if you're still not sure what I'm referring to, in the video I solo over the changes to "How High The Moon" so you can hear me use a variety of outside concepts. After that I show you some of these concepts and give you some tips on how you can convincingly play outside over any II-V-I progression!

    Once a guitarist can read music and play changes/arpeggios, this lesson may be about the most important lesson in Jazz. Thanks Mr Zellon.

    That’s a relief. At first I thought “playing outside? In this weather?”

    As a matter of fact, I almost did this lesson out on the street but it was raining. :) I'm more of a bebop and beyond player, so in all honesty, as far as ragtime, it's not a repertoire I'm familiar with , except Maple Leaf Rag and all the Scott Joplin rags.
