type:workout
A focused intermediate piano workout in B-flat covering dominant voicings, matching chord scales, and short improv lines.
This lesson presents three structured passes through a II–V–I in B-flat: four voicing variants for the dominant, paired chord-scale choices, and simple improvised lines using those scales. It emphasizes how to visualize available notes on each dominant, identify ‘avoid’ tones like the 11th, and use resolution to make tensions musical. Practical tips include finding melodic structures (triads, add9 shapes), employing Mixolydian and bebop approaches, and hearing how tensions resolve. Ideal for intermediate players following the Jazz Piano Workouts series who want hands-on practice material and guidance.
