Another great site!

Today I want to put a link to the best jazz guitar blog. Though it's devoted
to guitar, I think it could be interesting for any other instrument.

Very useful resourses in the internet

I want to mention some very useful resources which help me with my jazz studies.


The first is what I've just found. It's called Effortless Harmonica and is hosted by one of the best chromatic player on modern jazz and Brazilian music scene Wim Dijkgraaf. He is also famous for his springless  CX-12 mode and  his approach to improvisation.
Effortless Harmonica
There is a very clear approach to jazz tunes and scales. It remind s me old jazz guitarist's tradition where the CHORD TONES is the key thing and all other notes work as passing tones.
 The second site I'd like to mention is called jazzeveryone. Here you'll find a very solid pentatonic pairs approach and immediately start to  play in all 12 keys. I added Willie Thomas exercises to my daily practice. These exercises are easy to play on dimi harp and guitar.
You can try the free lesson and mothly payment is only 10 dollars( relatively cheap, I think:) . There also  special discount programms almost each month.

Draw position major scale

Here's DRAW position major scale. I colored the two added notes the 4th and 7th degree. Again, we have the  situation where couples of  notes : 1 and 6 3 and 5,   2,4,7 steps are in the same position

 

Just a reminder:)

Haven't been here for a long time because i was buzy with my work and gigs with my band:).

Anyway, I plan to add some usefull info and finally,some examples with diminished harmonica.
