Hey [N] guys, welcome back to another trumpet lesson.
This time we are going to be going over how to play a 2-5-1 chord progression over a Bb concert scale.
So, let's zoom in and get started. _
Ok, so here we go.
So basically, for those of you who don't know what a 2-5-1 pattern means, it means that
to play with the chord progressions of the rhythm section as an improvised solo, you _ _ _ _
_ _ play the scale starting with the second note of the chord, which is called a Dorian scale, _
and then the 5 of the chord, which is called a Mixolydian scale, _ and then the 1 of the
chord, which is just the beginning. _ _
So for trumpet, basically the Dorian scale [F] starts with D, so that sounds like_
_ [Ab] _ _ [A] _ [C] _ _
_ And the Mixolydian starts with G. _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
And then, [A] obviously the major.
_ [Gm] _ _ And _ [N] _ this is just for a concert Bb scale.
_ So basically, to solo over a chord progression like this, which is actually very common in
jazz, _ basically what you want to do, for beginners at least, _ _ _ _ try and when the chord progression
changes in the rhythm section, land on the note that makes the chord different.
Because _ the scale may sound similar because it uses the same notes, but it starts on a different scale.
So, if you were, let's say if you were just playing the scales for the solo, which generally
you don't want to do, but maybe for a beginner it's okay, _ _ you would just start.
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [N] _ So as you can see, basically after each one, I would go to the beginning of the next _ _ _ progression.
So from 2 to 5 to 1. _
And most 2-5-1s don't just go one measure, one measure, one measure.
So you could solo over one, and then as it changes, go to the _ beginning of the next one.
[G] So kind of like this. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ [Fm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ [G] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [N] _
_ _ So _ _ _ whether that was good or not, basically that gives you the idea.
So as you can tell, when I changed to the beginning note of the next scale, that was
when the chord progression changed.
_ And _ yeah, so that's about it.
Okay, well that's it.
So thanks so much for watching.
