Duple vs Triple

56 Melodic Exercises for Mastering Polyrhythms in Jazz and other Groove-Based Music (for all instruments) * Internalizing 2 against 3 is every musician's wish. As much as there are books extensively covering scale permutations, there are none that clearly illustrate all the possibilities that occur within the subdivisions of 2 and 3, in all their downbeats and upbeats, while also taking melodic motion into consideration. Training melodic motion awareness in rhythmic exercises is underrated while it is highly essential for any musician, especially the improvising jazz musician since being able to hear complex 2's and 3's patterns with changing pitches is integral to utmost freedom in phrasing. In this book, you will find 56 exercises in both, scalar and rhythmic notation, that will take you from the simple pattern of - half note triplet against whole notes - into the complex -syncopated 16th note triplets against syncopated 16th notes, hoping that along the way, this will help you achieve effortless sensitivity to swing and groove. Included with the eBook (sold separately) are play-along tracks of all 56 patterns with stereo separation so you can "hear" each pattern and practice against any line you wish. * Complete play-along tracks can be ordered separately at the author's website.
