Description

This is a great beginning lesson on using triad pairs to improvise. i talk about what triad pairs are and how to practice and use them over a 12 bar blues. Included in this lesson is a written 3 chorus solo on a C blues utilizing 2 different triad pairs. I talk about how to create lines using this concept that are hip and refreshing. If you haven’t studied this concept before then this is a great lesson to really change your approach to a blues in a great way. I demonstrate all the examples on tenor using a BP NY link .108 with my own custom baffle in it. (24 minute audio lesson)

    Great Fun!!! A fantastic way to add some variety to playing over blues changes. If you’ve been enjoying Steve’s other blues lessons, combining this approach with the blues scale and bebop scale material, really expands your vocabulary on the blues. It’s a very simple concept with endless possibilities. Steve does a great job of presenting the ideas in a way that’s easy to understand and more importantly, easy to apply to your blues playing right now. Five Stars!

    Hi Steve – the Triad Pairs Blues lesson is amazing – just kept me going for hours! I have found the whole thing of working with triads very difficult because the sound is so un-jazz!! Sounds like I’m doing classical music practice. Oh no! But this combination of triad pairs is great as the sounds are so cool – especially mixing in the tritone pair C/F# as well and using the Aebersold Dominant Vol 84 play along in all keys and throwing in pentatonics and blues scales as that’s what I’m working on as well at the moment. The variety of sounds is just great and as I played I realized that that is what players are doing sometimes – mixing and contrasting scales. Another great lesson with so much to work on – thanks! Ken

Hello Steve, I’m getting so much out of your lessons and books, amazing how much one may think one knows, there is always a new frontier or new way to view something you think you had somewhat down. You have taken it all to a new level and am so grateful. Your lessons are so down to earth and understandable and clear!  Thanks so much Steve! Cheers, Eddie

Eddie Parente

I want to thank you for your “Ultimate II-V-I Primer”  which has sent me off on a much better path to improvisation.  The primer and the four bound books I have will keep me busy for a long time.  I like your lessons for two reasons.  The lessons work and THEY ARE FUN.  Thanks again.

I am a music book junkie and I have to say that your books are the most clear, user friendly, and helpful books I own.  They are my absolute favorites and I only wish I had them years ago.  I wouldn’t change a thing about the experience I had in acquiring my degree at Berklee, but my playing has perhaps grown more in the time I’ve spent buried in your books and lessons.  Keep up the great work!!! Thanks, John

Steve- I joined your site this month and have downloaded 4 lessons and also purchased your new book and video on diatonic patterns. I just want to say I am very pleased with your approach and teaching techniques. I am getting back into playing after laying off for some time. The information you offer on your site is of great value and I am enjoying being a member. Thank you for what you are doing for the saxophone community.

After reading your story I will never feel quite right about complaining about any of my MINOR health issues!!    God bless Steve and I really hope that your health doesn’t stop you from fulfilling your calling.    These books have been such a help to open up my jazz vocabulary…   Thanks so much for sharing your story and for providing these great teaching tools…   John Leclerc   Saxophonist / composer/ EWI player and professional working musician of 35 years….

Steve, just a note to say thanks.

I’ve been playing a long time, but your material, laid out in such a thoughtful way, helps me to understand concepts in a new and deeper way.

You are a true gift to the jazz community.

Steve really changed my way of practicing: I got a whole lot of new ideas for my playing the tenor.  His lessons are really helpful, give a lot stuff to practice and give clear answers to complicated stuff.  Steve has a lot of humor and I wish I had laughed so much in my former days with the horn.  All topics, from Blues to Approach note are dealt with clearness that wet ones appetite to play and practice that great ideas.

Hi Steve, I live in a gorgeous but rural area of Oregon-no music store within 80 miles. Your lessons are my lifeline!  Truly the best there are anywhere online. Love your playing. Love your teaching.  Thanks again. Ed

By the way, BIG COMPLIMENTS to you, Steve! Not only are you a great player, you are also a great teacher! I, too, am a woodwinds player/teacher. I have new inspiration to play and teach because of you. The concepts and “thinking” is similar to what I already learned in College, but hearing you explain and PLAY the concepts REALLY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE! Also, your written patterns are more interesting than other books I have seen! Keep up the good work. I will be recommending your sit… Read more
I will be recommending your site to others!
