Cycle of 4ths modal interchange triad pair workout #sax #saxophone #jazz #saxplayer #saxofone #saxo #saxofonista #saxofonista #exercises #cycle #4
The chords follow the cycle of 4ths (or 5ths) C to F to Bb to Eb.
However the quality is C7sus to F major 7 then Bb7sus to Eb major 7 etc.
This creates a sense of Modal interchange for example from the F major 7 to the Bb7sus4, which can be thought of as F major going to F minor (parallel mode change)
Over these chords lines built on Triad pairs are exclusively featured.
This exercise and many more come from the Appendix of the "Encyclopedia of Triad Pairs" search jazzduets.com
