Hello everyone! To celebrate hitting the 100 subscriber mark, I'm uploading another new episode this week. Thanks so much for joining me in this conversation, and please don't forget to share these with friends who might take an interest! In this episode, we are looking at Barry Harris's chromatic scale. This scale is a melodic/rhythmic concept that can be applied to any diatonic scale or, as we are exploring here, the major and minor 6th diminished scales (in combination with various relative motions). I'm really grateful for all of the feedback that I have received. Please keep the comments coming, and share anything that might add to the discussion. While later episodes will deal with a variety of subjects, these first ones are dedicated to the ideas of Barry Harris, who is, in my view, one of the most important musical thinkers alive today.
