Episode 162: Melissa Aldana’s Masterful Use of Intervals

Melissa Aldana is a game changing saxophonist. Her ability to have complete freedom on the horn is inspiring. This week, we bring you one chorus of the blues from Melissa that defies logic and common sense. The thing about this transcription, though, is that it might be the hippest thing I have heard in a long time. Melissa's use of intervals and rhythm is going to make you rethink the way you approach improvisation and inspire you to take the next step. Enjoy the episode and make sure you get your hands on the PDF! WANT THE PDF THAT GOES ALONG WITH THIS EPISODE?? Head over to our Patreon page and when you donate $3 or more a month you get this PDF and every other.
