Walt Weiskopf Intervalic Improvisation - The Modern Sound: A Step Beyond Linear Improvisation PDF screenshot
PDF | 7.84 MB
Recording artist and master improviser, Walt Weiskopf, presents the simple technique of using only two triads to create long, exciting phrases for all improvisers. You will find yourself suddenly sounding much more hip and 'modern' with this technique, and yet it is fairly easy to understand. Walt explains the technique, and then gives you plenty of material to work on to get this method 'under your fingers.' This is definitely a recommended book for intermediate or advanced players who are looking for something to help take them to the next level. Use intervallic techniques to expand and enhance your musical performance in whole new directions.

Walt is a great soloist so this should be a great resource!! His solo playing on Steely Dan's 'Everything Must Go' title track is wonderful & inspiring.

It is good to remember that all this, is just a guide to practice lines of imptovisation on another way to see the harmony melodic figurations, being that in the concise and true analysis, we will be thinking of a chord with 9th and another one one step above it with 9th.
It is a practical way to see what you can do, because all this are just a coincidence between the chords, but establish so few arguments to say that it is a new system, that is exaggeration. I think it's very interesting the popular way of observing how things go on, in jazz we do several exercises using diatonic arpeggios, but when we use chromatism, we must study melody figuration, which is also a good approach that will result the same way of this book.
You as an arranger and or comporser, could try your own way of thinking to achieve a new composition, three triads, or two triads separated by cromaticism, remember that "quartal and quintal harmony" happend in this same way of experimentalism, maybe you get something brand new of your own.

I agree. It's NOT a "new system" but simply another way of looking at the relationship between harmony and melody specifically, and ALSO rhythm in a more indirect manner. The latter happens because this method GENTLY forces the practitioner to start looking at the two triad-generated bits of musical phrases in terms of either being a triplet or a quadruple and this helps develop more control with ending phrases with metric precision. The typical method of learning which scales work over which chords, causes one to play in a certain way and while nothing is wrong with that "certain" way, the BEST improvisers often employ MULTIPLE ways to interpret the music intellectually.

I'm a HUGE lover of McCoy Tyner's theoretical innovations and your statements regarding experimentation CAN'T be endorsed enough! Among other things, I'm a music instructor and I stress this to my students more than anything except maybe my mantras about enjoying the "journey" and about us only being able to "get out what we put in". Anyways thanks for your statements and I truly hope that you're an instructor TOO. The general state of music NEEDS you! HaHa!! When my musician friends start complaining about the dire state of popular music in America today, my first question to them is always, "Do you teach music? Cause if not, please try to remember that ACTION, in THIS case instructing people, is a better way of changing things than complaining about them is.". Thanks again!

Your point is perfect, do not complain is better, do, get on the wheel instead of staying away, or behind a pc in the middle of nowhere criticizing. I'm still an educator, though I earn a lot more from production.

Like your, this has always been my argument, it is no use talking badly about other people's music, but try to produce something so much better that you can erase at least 70% of the music of others, so it happened to 'J.B.Bach', he did better.

In the past formerly record labels were the intellectual epicenter of the entire music process, nothing happened without them, which were a great filter worldwide, not that I like them and the absurd exploration contracts that made. But today, with the ease of making music on any PC and spread it at no cost on the web, brought a lot of idiot without no culture, our next step is to put an eraser on them, this is only done educating and also producing something better.

Is that even like the food industry, when they produce Yogurt without milk, or when them convince ignorant people to consume artificial carcinogenecos products like margarine, but, most do not think and fall into the trap of marketing and buy for being cheaper.

But, calmly we have just left the twentieth century and we are entering a much more intellectual phase, but, the transition is painful in all areas, philosophical, cultural, food, etc.

Education for all, but unfortunately, good quality education costs a lot, and is not found in pdf books, the contact and incentives of a great professional in any area, changes everything, changes our whole life.

Man, if we lived in the same town and could attack the system TOGETHER, we would be a force to be reckoned with for sure!! HaHa!! It's always a pleasure reading your posts and conversing with you, my dear friend. Take care of yourself until we next chat, brother.

I must say, I absolutely ENJOY reading all the comments! Although I've played different genres of music since I was 4 years old, now that I'm pushing 50 my heart is wanting to learn jazz and all the theory behind it. It's pretty confusing for me at first, but I know if I take the time and dig in, the rewards musically will be boundless. I don't think there are many jazz instructors where I live for guitar, but I'm not afraid to take this on myself and, like you had mentioned earlier, enjoy the journey. Thank you to everyone in this thread and much gratitude!

Hey Brother, the MOST important thing at the beginning is to LISTEN to Jazz as much as possible. I can't stress this enough. You'll NEVER be able to get the nuances of Jazz without REALLY listening to the greats ALOT!!! It's so frustrating to watch white college kids major in Jazz Studies but then listen to Progressive Rock all day and wonder WHY they aren't getting the FEEL and CONCEPT of Jazz. This goes for any style of music really. How are you gonna play Reggae WITHOUT listening to Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, The Wailers, Steel Pulse, etc. You're NOT!! Same with Jazz and even MORE so.

Whereas most other styles like Rock, Pop, and Hip-Hop consist of musicians learning their part and jammin' it out once the song starts, Jazz requires the musicians to LISTEN to each other CONSTANTLY to determine WHAT to play as you HAVE no set "part" in Jazz. You don't even have "set" chords as you can reharmonize on the fly if you feel it will add to the performance.

I recommend Charlie Christian, Grant Green, Wes Montgomery, George Benson, Joe Pass, Kenny Burrell, Herb Ellis, and Tal Farlow just to get started. Later you'll run into other more modern greats like Pat Metheny, John Scofield, Stanley Jordan, Larry Koonse, Wayne Krantz, Mark Whitfield, etc. George Benson is my fave because he's so bluesy. If you're not playin' any Blues, you're not playin' any Jazz either.

I agree with Aesop.

Jazz is like any language, it's easier to learn when you go live in the country.
You have to travel to Jazz Land ...
