INTRODUCTION

An arpeggiois a seriesof chordtonesplayedone note at a time. Everyserious

Arpeggios
are frequently usedin constructing A quickanalysisof melodies

frommusicof nearlyall agesandstyleswilldemonstrate
thisfact.Theyare alsoused
as accompanimentdevices.

In contemporary music,such as rock, blues and jazz, arpeggiosare used as


improvisational
toolsalongwith scales.lt is for musicians
who play in thesestyles
thatthisbookis intended.

In any givenimprovisational situation,the "safest"soundingpitchwill alwaysbe a


chordtone.However, if yoursolois madeup onlyof chordtones,you runthe riskof
boringyourlistenels.Goodsolosare madeup of a varietyof rhythmic, melodicand
harmonicdevices.lt's up to eachpersonto findthe properbalancebetweenplaying
it safeandtakingchances.

Arpeggiosare very usefulin particularto the jazz musicianbecausethis style of


musicoftenrequiresthe improvisor to makequickkey shiftswhensoloing.Many
guitaristsuse arpeggiosto facilitatethesekind of changes.The arpeggiohas the
benefitof outlining
the harmony that'shappening at the moment,lettingthe listener
knowthat the improvisor has a firm graspof the harmonicmovementin the piece.
Also,the useof arpeggios hasthe effectof breakingup the flowof the musicallineby
interspersingintervallic
leapsintothe solo.Solosmadeup of just scalepassages
tendto soundsmoothandvocal-like. Wideintervalleapsprovidecontrastin the line.

Learningarpeggioson the guitaris morethanjust learningchordforms.Chordsare


usuallyplayedone noteper string.In somecases,it's possibleto playone,two or
threenotesper stringin an arpeggio.This will becomevery obviousonceyou get
intothe book.

The formatof this book is simple.Eachpagecontainsa particulartype of chord,


whichis shownin fivedifferent
forms.The rootof eachchordformis shownas a solid
blackdot.The dot is yourreferencenote.By usingthisnote,youcan movethe chord

The middlecolumnshowsthe arpeggioof the chordto its left.The rightcolumn


showsthe largerscalepatternwhichgoeswiththisarpeggioand chord.You get the
wholepicture,fromthe chordto its arpeggio to the complete scale.An X abovea

usingyourfingers.(Many of thesechordswillbe easierto playif youpluckthe strings
with your fingersinsteadof tryingto strumthemwitha pick.)

On someof the morecomplicated chordssuchas Dom9b5,I'veshadedin someof


the notesin anattemptto makethingsa littlecleareras to whatare importantnotes
and what are not. In somecases,the root will be shaded,becausethe root is not
reallya necessary notein an arpeggio.For the mostpart,the chordsare in root
position,withthe bassnotebeingthe lowestnoteof the chord.ln somecases,this
was not possible.At any rate,all chordvoicingsare shown.(Theseare the numbers
insidethe circlesin eachchordform.)Fivedifferent formsof eachchordtype are
given.Thisapproach coversthe entirelengthof the fingerboard.
effectively

The scalesI choseto showwith eachchordtype are what your "average"garden


varietyjazzmusicianmighthavechosen.However, don'tbe fooledintothinking
that
theseare the only possibilities, I you
becausethey aren't. encourage to seek out
otherbookson the subjectof improvisation or checkout my bookentitled, SCALE
PATTERNS FORGUITAR.Scalechoiceis dependant uponhowanygivenchordis
functioningin a song.A good jazz lheorytext and qualified can put this
instructor
subjectin perspective
for you.

It's up to you to choosewhatorderto playthe noteswhichmakeup any arpeggio.


You don'thaveto startfromthe lowestnoteandgo rightup fromthere.Youcan start
anywhereyou likeand playthe notesin any order.Also,you'llhaveto workout your
own fingerings and scales.The numberswhichare
for the chordforms,arpeggios
included in eachchord,scaleand arpeggio, are the scaledegreesyou are playing.
Eventually, you mustknowwhatyou'redoingwhenyou are playingthesethings,so
startnowto knowwhat'sgoingon withyourplaying.

Practice thesearpeggiosby firsthittinga chord,thenthe arpeggiowhichgoeswithit,


and thenthe largerscale.Thiswilltakeyou acrossthe pagefromleftto right.You
needto havethe arpeggio in yourfingersas fluentlyas the chordsandscales.Think
as the bridgebetweenchordsand scales.
of the arpeggios

Mostguitaristswho'vegrownup playingrockand bluesstylesare oftentrappedby a


mono-scalar approach to soloing.Thatis, theytry to useone scale,usuallythe minor
pentatonicor blues,as it'softencalled,to playovera seriesof changingchords.In
manycases,thisworkswell becausewhattheycall chordsare reallynot.Theyare
of a perfectSth,alsoknownas powerchords.Thistypeof approach
intervals doesn't
workto wellwhenthe harmonyconsistsof movingtriadsandfournotechords(7th's).
This type of harmonicmovementmakesyour scaleseem inadequate and out of
place.You needdifferenttonalresources,i.e.,newscales,to effectively
solooverthe
changes.All guitarists
run up againstthisproblemsoonerof later,especiallyif they
wantto moveintosongswhichhavea )azz leaning.

Two of the earliestiazz guitariststhat reliedheavilyon arpeggiosare Django


Reinhardtand CharlieChristian.Listento how they usedarpeggios to followthe
contourof the movingchordprogressions. You'llsoonsee the art involvedin this
typeof approach.Fora moremodernapproach, likepat Metheny,
listento guitarists
JohnScofieldand MikeStern.

Experimentation is the key to becomingan accomplished improvisor. There,sno


substitute. ThethinEsin thisbookare meantto get you starteddownthispath.And if
you findthesearpeggios helpful,pleasecheckout my otherbooks.ln additionto the
