Abstract

The art of jazz improvisation demands that jazz performers create musical ideas in real time based on the harmonic and melodic structure of a song. The study and transcription of the jazz masters is crucial in understanding the art of improvisation. This article demonstrates how master jazz performers use the ii-V7-I chord progression in improvisational practice. This chord progression is essential to jazz improvisation and has been handled by jazz musicians in many different ways. This compilation of ii-V7-I improvisatory phrases will include a brief analysis of each idea. These analyses will display the artists' similarities and differences in personal style.
