It's all regarding discovering jazz language when it comes to coming to be a fantastic jazz improviser. So unlike the 'half-step below technique' (which can be outside the range), when approaching from over it seems better when you keep your notes within the scale that you're in. That's why it's called the 'chord range above' strategy - it remains in the scale.
So rather than playing 2 eight notes straight, which would last one quarter note ('one' - 'and'), you can split that quarter note right into three 'eighth note triplet' notes - where each note of the triplet coincides length. The first improvisation method is 'chord tone soloing', which suggests to make up melodies using the 4 chord tones of the chord (1 3 5 7).
I typically play natural 9ths over the majority of chords - including all 3 chords of the major ii-V-I. This 'chordal structure' appears ideal if you play your right hand loudly, and left hand (chord) a bit quieter - to make sure that the listener hears the melody note ahead.
Just precede any kind of chord tone by playing the note a half-step below. To do this, walk up in half-steps (through the entire colorful range), and make note of all the notes that aren't in your current range. Cm7 voicing (7 9 3 5) with single melody note (C) played to intriguing rhythm.
Jazz artists will certainly play from a wide variety of pre-written ariose shapes, which are positioned prior to a 'target note' (normally a chord tone, 1 3 5 7). Initially allow's develop the 'right notes' - generally I would certainly play from the dorian scale over minor bookmarks 7 chord.
NOTE: You likewise get a good series of steps to play, from 7 - 1 - 9 - 3 - if you wish to play a short scale in your solo. Nonetheless, to stop your playing from appearing predictable (and break out of eighth note pattern), you need to vary the rhythms from time to time.
