    In this video you'll learn what secondary dominant chords are, and how to improvise over the "five-of-five" (V of V) secondary dominant. You'll learn the theory, then we'll pick apart six great examples from Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane and Sonny Stitt to see how it should be done.

    Wow! I watched this video, it opened my eyes. I went then to analyze Sonny Rollins’ solo on Toot, Toot Tootsie, and I started understanding the logic behind it way more better.
    So I found this video again just to leave this comment. Thank you! It’s an awesome lesson! Really appreciate it. You are really a great teacher.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Jamie! It always amazes me; the (I don't know how to define it -- but) "natural tendency" of how some chords & notes lead to others (resolutions and secondary resolutions). This video is very helpful in learning how to work with these "natural tendencies."

      To be honest with you I decide on a tune I like, play the start on my sax in an easy key, get my keyboard sheet music, transpose it to match the sax! I record the tune on my Genos keyboard then play along by ear on the sax 🤣🤣 my goal is careless whisper 🤣🤣 if you want a laugh I’ve put some on my channel did show me heaven this week 🤣👍🏻

    brilliant video as always Jamie......though......very complicated I have to say. I've got some easier answers you might like though:
    flippant but actually true answer to what to use to improvise over a 2ndary dominant D7 chord ........ANY NOTE YOU LIKE.....you know that's true right buddy????!!!
    more helpful and easier answer for mere mortals: use a D major scale and add a flat 3, 5 and 7. This covers all the notes you laid out...no need to bother learning loads of modes in all keys.....just take the major scale and add b3,b5,b7....apply it to any 2nd dom chord.....simples!!
    I checked the music choices you took examples from and at the speed the're playing you will be on a D7 for what 0.5 seconds.....you could probably get away with just playing a D note!!! LOL

    • @GetYourSaxTogether
      @GetYourSaxTogether  Рік тому

      Love this comment. Not sure about the b3 though?! You wouldn’t typically play an F on a D7#11. Also- it’s not really b5, because you also have the regular 5th. That’s why it’s a #11. Yeh, I know, whatever!! 🤣

    Good stuff to focus on the spicy notes. Great examples, super lesson. Wonder if you could change the color of the notes you play to something other than gray since each time you play a black key, it doesn't show up. You piqued my interest to try the Venn reed. So maybe you could consider the Harry Hartman Carbon and Copper Onyx reeds that I like for your future synthetic review?

    • @GetYourSaxTogether
      @GetYourSaxTogether  2 роки тому +1

      @@GetYourSaxTogether Well I ordered a Venn reed for my alto and I'll let you know if I end up getting them for my tenor and soprano after I hear how I can make them sound. ----- Amazon delivered the beautiful-looking Venn reed in its fancy packaging a few hours ago. So I decided to record to hear how it sounded compared to a Legere Signature, Carbon Onyx and Copper Carbon Classic. First, the Venn exhibited wonderful responsiveness throughout the range from low Bb to double altissimo G, but not much above that. I love that the Venn coloring closely mimics a natural reed. Its sound and character nearly match my favorite, Copper Carbon Classic. So the Venn will probably be my choice for classical venues and the Copper Carbon Classic for all other venues. And yes, I'll be getting the tenor and soprano Venn.
