Sunny Side of the Street: Exploring Triad Pair Jazz Improvisation

In this lesson, we'll explore the use of triad pairs to enhance your improvisation over the classic jazz standard "Sunny Side of the Street." For example, the chord progression Dm7 - G7 - CMaj7, we will utilize the F and G major triads. These triads provide a fresh, melodic approach to navigating the changes. Practice playing these triad pairs in groups of 2, 3, and 4 notes to create interesting lines and harmonies. This technique will add variety and a modern edge to your solos, allowing you to break free from traditional scalar patterns and explore new musical possibilities.
