In this week's Modern Jazz Line we'll tackle a triplet based melody based on arpeggio extensions of each chords. This is the first melody I've published that is written in the 3/4 time signature. Be careful to count and make sure you're playing the rhythms correctly. Any displacement should feel effortless, not forced or disjunct.

Introduction to the Tri-Tone Substitution: The Tri-Tone Substitution
I hope you enjoyed watching the first 10 lessons from my Modern Jazz Line series. In these jazz lessons I covered how to become a better improvisor using the ii-V-I progression as a guide. The next Modern Jazz Line videos will cover the tri-tone substitution used in the context of a basic ii-V-I progression (see example below). If you haven't read or watched my explanation of the tri-tone substitution you may want to check it out before continuing with the lesson below.
