In this video, I provide an overview of the Barry Harris Major Scale Rules for improvisation. The purpose of these rules is to help us come out rhythmically in the "right places" during improvisation. I demonstrate how to use the rules and suggest ways to practice them to develop phrases. I also discuss the importance of having chord notes fall on the beat and provide several examples showing what to practice and how to build your own phrases. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:00 Introduction 0:42 What are the rules? 5:06 Practice Ideas 6:50 Scale pattern, then rule 7:34 Non chord-note 9:11 Interval then rule 👉*Jazz skills membership & a full free lesson* My site for members with hundreds of categorized tutorials, webinars, learning tools and individual support.
