Connecting Bebop Scales & Enclosures on Take the A train

Struggling to make your Bop jazz solos sound connected, flowing, and professional? In this video, Jazzdutes breaks down a powerful melodic system : combining chromatic enclosures with bebop scales. By mastering these two devices together, you will train your ears and fingers to execute cool, coherent, and sophisticated chromatic lines. Using the classic chord progression from Duke Ellington's legendary "Take the A Train" as our canvas, we map out exactly how to bridge these concepts step-by-step to create an unbroken stream of swing momentum.
