arpeggios upper structures

Explore Chick Corea–inspired upper-structure triads, Lydian substructures, diminished devices, and chromatic approaches through example runs and voicings.

This lesson demonstrates practical techniques from Chick Corea’s vocabulary, including combining two triads for ambiguous voicings, turning major 7 chords into maj7#11s, using Lydian substructures and pentatonic upper structures, omitting tones to create playable substructures, and applying symmetric diminished and chromatic passing tones. Each concept is shown with runs and arpeggios and applied to specific chord progressions, with a complete example piece at the end. Includes exercises and annotated PDF for practicing these concepts in all keys.
