 October 16, 2009 | Hungry for music theory
We had some culinary fun with the dry, often intimidating subject of advanced music theory in our weekly Tips and Tricks section of the JazzMando site yesterday. We used the analogy of choices in sandwich toppings, demonstrating how the abundance of choice can intimidate and slow-down the decision making process in improvising and tackled Augmented 11th and Altered Scales, tri-ton subs, dominant functions, etc. Afraid we went into too much detail about the sandwich shopping experience, as in our cross-reference Facebook wall posting, FB friends felt the need to openly discuss lunch, foregoing some theory jewels in the article itself.
Don't know. Maybe people were just hungry...
If you got a few minutes, check out the article: Improvisation: too many choices?
