I found that the ideas of enclosures and approach notes actually came quite naturally when I got into bebop years ago.

[@DonnaSchwartz]

For sure - it's a paramount part of bebop. Thanks for your comment

[@caylarocks]

So helpful! You’ve unlocked the secret for me

[@DonnaSchwartz]

At the end of the video you mention using a V7 instead of the D- over G. What is the V7? Is it the V7 associated with the C Major? Is it a G7?

[@DonnaSchwartz]

Yes it's a G7.

Thank for the tip Donna .. you suggested using IrealPro . So if cmaj7 is the 1 chord .. what other chords would you suggest to add on to better hear chord changes . Thank you

[@harpsprince7576]

Also , I’ve never really heard of the Jamey aebosold book. You mentioned you’ve talked about it before , can you please point me in the direction of the video you’ve made . Thanks Donna 🎷🙏🏽

[@DonnaSchwartz]

I mentioned in the video that the 2nd chord should be a G7 or even a G9
