\u201cMastering the Minor ii-7b5 V7b9 Bebop Scale\u201d is a new approach to learning to play great jazz lines over a minor ii-V progression. \u00a0If you have worked out of my \u201cMastering the Dominant Bebop Scale\u201d book, you know that the bebop scale and the \u201cbebop links\u201d that can be added to it can be a powerful tool that can be used to create great sounding lines using the language of the jazz greats from the past.<\/p>\n

Mastering the Minor ii-7b5 V7b9 Bebop Scale<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this new book, I apply the principles of the bebop scale to a minor ii-7b5 V7b9 progression. \u00a0 I start with a bebop scale for these chords that sounds great and teach you what notes to start on. \u00a0After that, I teach you 47 great bebop links to add to these scales. \u00a0These \u201cbebop links\u201d are short melodic ideas that sound great when added to the minor ii-7b5 V7b9 bebop scale. \u00a0They add melodic content to the jazz lines being improvised while creating new and fresh directions and textures.<\/p>\n

Lastly, I show you 12 three note \u201cresolution links\u201d that can be added to the ends of your lines to help you resolve to the minor i chord. These are great pieces of the jazz language that can be memorized so that you will never have a problem resolving your lines again.<\/p>\n
