Get more from your arpeggios❗️An introduction to the arpeggio pivot

🎵Barry Harris is the man when it comes to pivoting. I'm not sure if he coined the term or whether he was the first to talk about arpeggios in this way, but it sure is something you want to have in your practice locker. How you practice arpeggios is super important if you want to extract the maximum music from them. I recently made a video on how there are 24 different combinations of playing 1357, this video is a follow up to that one in many regards. in today's lesson I cover the topic of pivoting on arpeggios. Pivoting is essentially changing octave to get the rest of the arpeggio. It makes your arpeggios sound fresh and can lead to much more interesting lines.
The lesson explains:
🔴 What a pivot is and how to apply the idea to an arpeggio
🔴 Some of the different ways to pivot
🔴 How to think about this kind of approach eg intervals rather than fret numbers

Super helpful video!!!

[@kewlfonz]

Thanks for that. I've seen this before when I've been reading through jazz solos, but didn't know it had an actual name - When reading music, arpeggio pivots look like the polar opposite of octave displacement which is another very useful tool...

[@jazzguitarwithandy]

It's a really useful way to freshen up the sound of our arpeggios, I used it all the time!

Thanks Andy! Some great ideas for new interesting sounds for me using these Arpeggio's. I hope all is well! :)

[@jazzguitarwithandy]

I'm well thank you Bill. I hope you are too! Yes, these ideas defiantly help you overcome getting stuck with playing arpeggios predictably from the Root and always having a line that ascends.
