I used the bad word "destroy". I meant "blur". These great artists created unique art-form by doing something _special_. I bet they knew the special effect they are creating instead of getting something by luck. Y'know what I mean? By the way, what do you think George Russell told Gil and Miles :-) You have been talking about analyzing what have done. I am talking about how to label chord names correctly so improviser does not need to suffer figuring out the chord scale when improvising on sight-read. After all, it is your music if someone take a bad solo :-) P.S. Seriously, I really, really care how my pianist, guitarist, and vibraphonist voices behind my solo, and voices against each other between them. I don't like one of them rests when the other is comping for me. And if they voiced C-E-F-G for whatever their reason is, I just play F Lydian phrase. That's all. If someone voiced b9 where I wrote natural 9th chord, and repeated b9th throughout my solo choruses, I will think if I call s/he again! -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
