A practical lesson on the BBAA chromatic enclosure technique for jazz improvisation, with examples and play-along backing tracks.
Explore the BBAA (double chromatic) enclosure to target chord tones and tasteful tensions in real musical contexts. Ariel and Adam demonstrate how to plan target notes ahead, apply the enclosure to minor-7, minor-7b5, major-7 and dominant harmony, and practice it over a blues using bebop rhythmic motifs. The lesson includes a PDF with two solo versions (one written out, one showing only targets) and a call-and-response backing track so you can loop and practice the ideas in real time.
