Practice Arpeggios Like Chris Potter and Sound Amazing

The rhythmic concept in how Chris Potter plays arpeggios is really worth checking out.
How the rhythm of the arpeggios adds so much value to the lines Chris Potter plays.
Realizing that jazz improvisation is much more than a bunch of eight notes and using Chris Potter’s lines and practice methods in your development will add so much to your playing.

Using Triads Can Change Your Playing

The use of triads is an amazing way to access both inside and outside playing.
The easy shape of the triad, with only three notes, is a super great way to ease in on getting altered sounds into your playing.
I demonstrate how you can add simple triad ideas to different chord functions and get a clear less to more altered sound.

Great Jazz sound – minor over dominant

3 great minor sounds to play on dominant chords
Adding vocabulary to your playing is very important.
The more ways you are able to get around in the changes of a tune, the more flexible you are in your playing, the more options you have the easier it is to make the best choice in your music.
You want to be able to move freely around, you want to react to what the piano player throws at you when playing, you want to move outside the key and surprise your fellow musicians and the audience with a sudden hip move. 
Getting more options in how to play and improvise on dominant chords is a massive addon to your flexibility.
