I am a serious practicing performer myself and I work out of it every day! The method works! You can develop a vocabulary in the style of Wes Montgomery for improvising in long chord lines.A guide to developing a linear chordal vocabulary for improvisation. Written with the styles of Wes Montgomery, Cal Collins, and Barney Kessel in mind. Improvising using lines of chords is an advanced craft. This book is intended for the jazz guitarist who is familiar with music theory, has developed at least a basic vocabulary in bebop and jazz improvisation, has studied some ear training and is now beginning to explore the technique of playing lines of chords. Specifically, this book is a collection of patterns that demonstrate how lines of chords can be created and used to express improvised melodies. The patterns are arranged by tonal centers of the dominant 7th, the minor, and the major. A section is included in the front which illustrates (1) frequently used voicings (2) four note chords in their inversions and (3) different types of chord scales. These are the building blocks from which melodic lines in chords can be created.Hailed as a breakthrough in developing a vocabulary of improvised chordal lines, this text is great for intermediate through advanced players who want to develop that style –an especially strong text for advanced players who have focused primarily on single line soloing. Hundreds of chord licks (much like Coker's Patterns for Jazz), chorded solo excerpts by Wes, Barney Kessel and many more. Volume One of the new Wes chord method.... A method book for the development of an improvisational style where you learn to play melodic lines in chords.....like Wes did. The cover says: "A guide for developing a chordal vocabulary for improvisation. Written with the styles of Wes Montgomery, Cal Collins, and Barney Kessel in mind.” There are many books which deal with chord forms, comping, and chord-melody playing, but these do not provide a vocabulary for the kind of harmonized soloing that Wes and others have done. To fill that need, Chordal Bebop Lines provides hundreds of actual phrases and patterns in chords. (Much like Jerry Coker's Patterns for jazz, only the lines are in chords, for guitar.) Melodic lines, in chords, are written with a melody line and a fret diagram by each melody note. Poor readers can benefit greatly from this style of writing. 2 pages of examples are shown in the pictures. Text also includes: Chord forms and chord scales; Glossary of common chord voicings; 28 positions/inversions for each of the following chord qualities: minor 7, major 7, diminished 7, minor 7 b5, dominant 7, dominant 7 b5. This is explored on string sets 1232, 2345, 3456, 1245, 2356, 6432, and 5321.
