Progressions – Maj3,Maj3,Min3

Cyclical Semi-Symmetric Harmonic Sequence – Maj3 Maj3 Min3 


Here I am improvising on this cyclical progression based on Coltrane changes. The chord symbols describe the roots only and the measures are only for the purpose of sectioning off and dividing up the progression. In the video I go through once at a time applying a major sound to each chord in this case. You might try repeating and there is sort of a never ending effect that takes place. In some cases I am playing very stepwise in others I am playing very triadic. To allow for some phrasing I am sometimes sort of pausing the progression. The progression provides a nice aural effect that allows lines to sound very unresolved. Really nice for regulating dissonance.
