Cocktail Piano Improvisation - Targeting Alterations
Welcome to lesson 6 in our cocktail piano improvisation course. In this lesson we will create interesting colours and tensions in our improvised melody lines by targeting and isolating the individual chord alterations.

Targeting chord tones and utilising arpeggios are 2 of the most fundamental improvisation principles. Targeting single alterations will now add a different dimension to our improvised lines.

Diatonic Approaches, Enclosures, & Chromaticism
In the same way that we targeted the 3rds and 7ths in the earlier lessons we will now use the same approach patterns to target the individual alterations over the dominant chords.
