31. Bach's Bourree in E Minor (#14) - Page 1 by Christopher Sung (9297)
As far as the right hand goes, you can use your fingers or even a finger and a pick, as there are never more than two notes being fretted at the same time. In fact, you can even play it with just your thumb and index finger ...(more)

32. Bach's Bourree in E Minor (#14) - Page 2 by Christopher Sung (9297)
In the first page, we stayed in E Minor, and then modulated to G Major at the end. In this part of the tune, we use the same type of motifs in the first part, but end up in B Major in measure 17, before we wrap it up in page...(more)

33. Bach's Bourree in E Minor (#14) - Page 3 by Christopher Sung (9297)
OK, time to wrap up this tasty little tune. When we last left our hero, we were in B Major. Now, Bach uses a series of patterns to modulate us back to the home key of E Minor. Things get a little hairy in mms. 22-23 as the...(more)

34. Different II-V-I Licks (#15) - Page 1 by Christopher Sung (9297)
Here's a series of licks over a Dm7-G7-C chord progression. They're mostly eighth note lines with slurring (i.e. hammers and pulls) mostly into notes occurring on the beat. There's nothing etched in stone regarding the arti...(more)

35. Different II-V-I Licks (#15) - Page 2 by Christopher Sung (9297)
For these licks, there no rule about fingering. I usually keep playing around with it until something feels comnfortable. The way my fingerings have evolved (mostly from listening to Sco and Pat) is to give priority to slur...(more)

36. Different II-V-I Licks (#15) - Page 3 by Christopher Sung (9297)
Here are some ideas involving chromaticism, which is one sure way to play a complex line with the least amount of movement...

37. Different II-V-I Licks (#15) - Page 4 by Christopher Sung (9297)
Here are some ideas that impose other chord forms on the G7. The end of measure 1 and the start of measure 2 imply Ab7 over the D Min7-G7. In measure 6, reference is made to a B Major 7...
Jazz · Advanced · 112465 Hits · 4.26 / 5 (91 ratings)
38. Different II-V-I Licks (#15) - Page 5 by Christopher Sung (9297)
More ideas involving the superimposition of other chord types. In measure 2, we have an Ab7 type of idea in beats 1-2, before going to the G7 in the beats 3-4. Measure 5 borrows from Eb Minor (1/2 step above the given chord...(more)

39. Scott Henderson Type Licks (#16) - Page 1 by Christopher Sung (9297)
Scott Henderson (of Tribal Tech fame) is quite simply a monstrous player. Equally adept at blues as he is at Giant Steps, he can play over anything. In particular, he excels at playing great lines over static progressions (o...(more)

40. Scott Henderson Type Licks (#16) - Page 2 by Christopher Sung (9297)
The example below is a little bit more outside. The first measure is almost like an F Lydian kind of thing with F,G,A,B. Using a simple 5-note motif in mms 3-5, he keeps moving it down by a full step each measure, until the...(more)
