Re: Arpeggio's
Indeed, the math in music shows the way. Chord construction leads the way to the melody. Arpeggios , whether major, minor, diminished , augmented or extended .... playing the scale patterns based on the chord is the first step in the direction of improvisation. Number the tones in a scale 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1 though often stated in Roman numerals, you can organize the intervals.... the distance between tones... and understand the building diagrams of chords and the basis of melodies. Major chords 1,3,5 a minor chords 1, flat 3 , 5 Dominant 7th's 1,3,5, flat 7. And you're off! Wikipedia has some very good articles on music theory and chord construction. Enjoy the journey. R/
