This approach appeals to my desire to find the irreducible components of the bebop language. The rational interface with enclosures creates the instantaneous effect of having actual access to chops without that black box that intermediate players tend to disappear into where they come out the other end and shrug their shoulders and say “just transcribe bro”
You got vocabulary for days in and out of bebop 😂🙌 I think I hear what you’re saying and I agree transcription is the best way to learn the language. This just shows people how it looks and sounds, if they are able to start hearing it the transcription process will get easier and active listening to the masters will start expanding their understanding. 🙌
Hey Jo, thanks! I remember when you showed me your practice routine with enclosures and how you used it in your playing. Hope you are well too! We need to catch up soon! Check this guy out people he's an unbelievable musician!
Yes of course, shoot me a DM on instagram @chrisgsax and I will send it to you. Sign up for the newsletter on the website and get a bunch of free stuff each week 😁🙌
@@positivelyprogressing Hi Chris! I am not on IG unfortunately but I will sign up for the newsletter and drop you and email for the enclosure PDF. Thanks!
So ok the fact of the #11 means chromatically altered harmony so thats often forth mode of the melodic minor or even more oblique so you're doing nondiatonic chromatic enclosures to already altered chords like a mid 60s Shorter Ballad or a Kenny Wheeler tune?
I’m not sure what you’re referencing, could you give me a time stamp and I’ll see what I did and try to remember what I was explaining or thinking. Thanks
Really cool video, thanks! What's been the breakthrough in getting reps on this? Is it taking one thing and playing it in various licks? Or just doing these smaller triad exercises? As these chromatic cells are rather small I sometimes find it hard to practice and get reps.
I would really try to get it in your ears and play really slowly. Slower than you think you need to, maybe sing between each rep and do the fingering along with your singing. There's only one way to commit to muscle and ear memory and that's reps! I would try working just with triads first, slow then speed up the met gradually. Get it really up tempo in each key eventually. Then start creating your own exercises to help reinforce it as well as make it personal to you so you can use it in your improvisation. This may take a month or 2 or 3 but be consistent and patient 😁🙌 you can do this!
I’m not sure exactly what you’re asking but tenor is a Bb instrument and guitar is a C instrument. I think middle C on the piano is the D on the staff (treble) for tenor. Hope this helps!🙌😁
Thanks for presenting enclosures in a clear and methodical way starting from from simple to complex.
You're very welcome! Have fun 😁🙌

Thanks for the methodical approach to these different ways to add my variety to my playing! I’ll start working these in with my triads. 🎷🎷🎷
Perfect!!! 😁 🙌

Hi which note is the cencert pitch "C "between saxophone and guitar ?
I’m not sure exactly what you’re asking but tenor is a Bb instrument and guitar is a C instrument. I think middle C on the piano is the D on the staff (treble) for tenor. Hope this helps!🙌😁

Always 🙌✨
I must be dumb because every sound example sounded exactly the same to me lol
not dumb at all, there are subtle differences your ears might not be used to yet. :)
