13:30 using enclosures to "escape"

Bebop enclosures stumped me for a while. I used to be confused by how to form them and when to use which one.

Once I understood the 4-note enclosure and that there's just two different sets of notes to enclose any given note, it started to click.

So in this video I'm taking a backwards approach by explaining the full blown 4-note enclosure first, and then working backward to the 2 note enclosure.

I haven't taken this approach before because the 4-note enclosure contains more notes and can be thought of as "harder" for that reason, but I think from and intellectual perspective it could make a lot of sense.

As an educator we're always trying to improve our methods and find better ways to transfer information - I think this could be a step in that direction.
