Workshop #3

This workshop went a lot faster than the other ones did. We learned about middle ground improvisation, which deals with improvising off of the V (dominant) chord and fits in the key, in the middle of a ii V I progression, which is what jazz mostly consists of. We also dealed with the alterations of the 5 chord, including the flat 9th and 13th. Our assignment for the next workshop was to write a solo for Scrapple from the Apple and practice it at a fast tempo. This wasn't the challenge, the challenge was notating it.
