The Chromatic Line Game

Join Paul for his first Mike's Master Class where he will impart his concepts and experience using Chromatic leading tones in upper voices in chords as a means to generate motion in comping and soloing. The Chromatic Line Game makes use of a chromatically ascending or descending upper voice as a means for generating direction in comping, new chord voicings, or as a basis for constructing a single line solo. Examples start with simple ii-V-I-vi and progress to a practical application to familiar tunes.
