30minute medium swing jazz practice backing track for improvising on major 251 progressions in all 12 keys!

Featured Player & Lesson = Jens Larsen https://goo.gl/NgJmtP

(Cool jazz guitar comping lesson)


Chord progression:

II: Dm7 I G7 I Cmaj7 I Cmaj7 :II

Then

II: Gm7 I C7 I Fmaj7 I Fmaj7 :II

And so forth....

(see the video for each progression as the track goes on)


In theory, you can start by sticking to the relevant major scale in each key as in C major scale on Dm7 G7 Cmaj7.

Next up, I'd try outlining the chord tones/arpeggios:

Cmaj7 arpeggio = c e g b

Dmin7 arpeggio = d f a c

G7 arpeggio = g b d f

Playing C Major scale will result in C Ionian (Cmaj7 chords), D Dorian (Dm7 chords) and G Mixolydian (G7 chords) all the same 7 notes!

Next up, I'd recommend trying out some more advanced colours on the dominant chord (G7/G13) by using the

G diminished 1/21 tone scale = G Ab Bb B C# D E F (G)



....and then repeat in all 12 keys for a proper jazz workout!
