MELODIC ICEBERGS - "Triadic Chromaticity" (Melodic Phrases and Exercise Ideas in The Style of Jonathan Kreisberg)

In this short melodic study I will be exploring a very fun and effective phrasing concept that involves a chromatic approach to a diatonic add9 triadic arpeggio which is inspired by the innovative and unique melodic idiom of the great modern jazz guitarist - Jonathan Kreisberg.

The study includes 4 workout ideas and inventive variations of a Jonathan Kreisberg phrase that can be often found in his genius melodic improvisations. The main goal here is to use these exercises and phrases as a vehicle to build improvisatory melodic vocabulary, fretboard navigational awareness and great technique.

All exercises are presented in the key of C Major over a Dmin7 sonority but I highly recommend transposing them to all 12 keys as well as all string sets and mode positions of a given key.

Materials Included:
