11.24Begin improvisation with chord tones only

Now we add improvisation.

Over Dm7, allowed targets:

D F A C

Over G7:

G B D F

Over Cmaj7:

C E G B

Don't think scales yet.

Make a melody using only chord tones.

For example:

Dm7:

F – A – C

G7:

B – G – F

Cmaj7:

E – G – C

Listen to how clearly the line follows the harmony.
