5 Ways to Devour Minor Chords

  • Playing purely diatonic, where every note choice comes directly from the chord scale.
  • Incorporating melodic chromaticism using non-diatonic notes through approach notes and enclosures.
  • Using melodic cells, small melodic fragments that can be transposed rapidly for compelling dissonance.
  • Pentatonic shifting, smoothly switching to non-diatonic tonalities and resolving back using the pentatonic scale.
  • Using Triad Pairs or Hexatonic, alternating between two different triads to create one colorful sound or putting all six notes of the triad pair in their closest intervals resulting in a six-note scale.
