Description
by La Tatnall (Photographer), Kirk Tatnall (Author)
The goal of this book is to provide a clear map of R235 patterns and their variations across the entire fretboard while absorbing the sound and chord progression of John Coltrane's Giant Steps.The Etudes are arranged in ascending order along the neck and are grouped into three string sets of four strings each. Limiting the exercises to groups of four strings forces the line to change directions often and develops the ability to do so while improvising.Playing these etudes will allow you to get the patterns under your fingers. It is up to you to work them into your musical vocabulary, varying rhythms as well as the length and starting point of phrases.
