Melodic Rotations Learning to Improvise More Based on the Composition

"Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence" is a series of books that will help you to develop many different musical skills simultaneously. The source materials for these books are exercises that contain two 3 note groupings, also called "trichords," that are manipulated in various ways. These exercises use many different types of harmonic and melodic ideas that can be superimposed over common chord progressions, scales and other musical situations. The exercises found in these courses are also great for singing and rhythm studies. Finally, the "Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence" course concentrates on the use of the three note pitch class sets (trichords) by pairing each trichord with another trichord with the same prime form. For instance, in this volume a Blues scale is divided up into two 3 note segments. Various exercises are presented that help you master this idea and examples can be seen below. This is an excellent way to get some new ideas from an old yet great scale.

Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence Exercises

This course is divided up into two sets of exercises written in treble and bass clef. The 1st set of exercises gets gradually harder but also more musical. Depending upon your musical skills you can start anywhere you want but for beginners I would recommend starting from the 1st exercise of the five. The 2nd set of exercises are called "Atomic Scales." These exercises are a technical exercise that really helps you to learn these ideas but also sound great as a melody right off the bat. There are 6 different types of "Atomic Scales" exercises in this course. You don't have to play every exercise in every key. But doing this will greatly increase the likelihood of you using it in real music in the future. Below is a listing of the exercises found in this course: Closed position studies. 1st inversion studies. 2nd inversion studies. Random combinations of closed position along with 1st and 2nd inversion. Random combinations of closed position along with 1st and 2nd inversion with rhythmic displacement. Atomic Scales Exercise 1 Atomic Scales Exercise 2 Atomic Scales Exercise 3 Atomic Scales Exercise 4 Atomic Scales Exercise 5 Atomic Scales Exercise 6

Explanation of 2nd Set of Exercises in Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence V3 Course

Below is an explanation for each set of the 6 different atomic scale exercises found in this course. Three octave sequences that move back and forth between the two 3 note groups are presented in six different configurations. These exercises are highly melodic and can be used verbatim as melodies when soloing. If we thought of the three notes as A,B,C then there would be six different ways to combine these notes. i.e. ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB and CBA. All exercises include MP3s as well as midi files so that you can hear and play these exercises at any tempo as well as versions in all 12 keys. Three octave sequences that move back and forth between the two 3 note groups in the ABC sequence Three octave sequences that move back and forth between the two 3 note groups in the ACB sequence Three octave sequences that move back and forth between the two 3 note groups in the BAC sequence Three octave sequences that move back and forth between the two 3 note groups in the BCA sequence Three octave sequences that move back and forth between the two 3 note groups in the CAB sequence Three octave sequences that move back and forth between the two 3 note groups in the CBA sequence

For instance, in this volume C, Db, Eb and F#, G, A are both 013 pitch class sets because they both contain a 1/2 step and a minor 3rd within their interval structure. This is a great sequence because it uses six notes from a symmetrical diminished scale therefore you will find a ton of useful applications which are discussed in the course.

Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence Exercises

This course is divided up into five sets of exercises written in treble and bass clef. Each exercise gets gradually harder but also more musical. Depending upon your musical skills you can start anywhere you want but for beginners I would recommend starting from the 1st exercise. You don't have to play every exercise in every key. But doing this will greatly increase the likelihood of you using it in real music in the future. The five exercises found in this course are as follows: Closed position studies. 1st inversion studies. 2nd inversion studies. Random combinations of closed position along with 1st and 2nd inversion. Random combinations of closed position along with 1st and 2nd inversion with rhythmic displacement.

Examples from the Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence V1 Course

Below is an explanation for each set of the 5 different exercises found in this course. All exercises include MP3s as well as midi files so that you can hear and play these exercises at any tempo as well as versions in all 12 keys. Closed position studies are an excellent way to get a foothold into the sound of these two 3 note groups moving back and forth. Along with playing them on your instrument, I also recommend using a drone in the background to help you hear the key center. It is a good idea to sing through these melodies, again with a drone in the background. Any instrument could be used as a drone but I recommend using the MetroDrone® app or MP3's as your source. 12 MP3s from the MetroDrone® are included with this course. Initially you wouldn't have to play or sing any exercise in time but that would be your ultimate goal. Once you reach the level of playing or singing these melodies in time I highly recommend you get the full version of the MetroDrone® so that you can work at all tempos in all keys. The 1st Inversion studies open up the 3 note group to a large melodic leap. While initially this might not seem very musical, later on when you work with levels 4 and 5 studies you will see these leaps are very useful in making a coherent melodic line. These leaps can also be a challenge to play and sing so they are an excellent source for developing this side of your musicianship. The singing of 1st inversion and the forthcoming 2nd inversion exercises helps you hear the 3 note group in any configuration and prepare you for how it will be found in real music. The 2nd inversion studies completes the three possible ways to play the 3 notes groups within one octave. Like the 1st inversion they are excellent to develop your physical ability and singing these melodies will extend your technical and aural skills. The 4th exercise where random combinations of closed position, 1st and 2nd inversion are used gets you much closer to how these melodies would sound when used with real music. The one drawback is the constant stream of eighth notes which would certainly need further editing to make consistent musical melodic lines. This 4th exercise is really just a preparation for the 5th exercise which will introduce rests. By introducing rests the melodies become much more musical but also much harder to play because of the shifting rhythms. This is why the 4th exercise is a good stepping stone for the 5th. Singing these melodies with a drone is also recommended. The last level introduces syncopation to the random combinations of closed position, 1st and 2nd inversions. This is by far the most musical of the five exercises but also the most challenging. If you have good technical skills as well as sight reading chops, I recommend going to this exercise first, so that you can hear how the combination of C, Db, Eb and D, E, F will sound in a melodic line. Use the MetroDrone® or other jam tracks to explore how this combination sounds in different contexts. Here are a few examples from the course.
