Relax, focus, build your sound and feel those pentatonics :)

Very cool exercise :) Right now it is my go-to practice after scales warm-ups and as an ending or pause in every practice session, just to calm myself a little and focus on notes of each chord and pentatonic. I am not a pro musician, but I think it is a great blueprint to develop nice, full sound on saxophone and to not get tired too quickly.

Peace through Art

Thank you. I am enjoying the Coltrane pentatonic ideas...it reminds me of the Melodic Minor approach that I like to use, yet, it has a special Spirit that connects to the tradition of and Spirit Coltrane peace...For anyone who is used to practicing the same thing, the PDF shares lots of cool new horizons to draw ideas from...Thanks for sharing. Peace through music...

Coltrane meditation

I have been practising this exercise every day since I received the gift from Nick. It's great for meditation and it's also helping me get more in tune with Coltrane's music.

Engaging

I listen and practice this meditation in bed, right before I sleep. The increased tonal awareness is a miracle and the suggestive sounds help make learning faster and better. Bonus: I get to sleep better! Thank You

Coltrane Meditation - Pentatonic on Giant Steps

Started practicing yesterday. Cool! I transferred the mp3 into Ableton to slow down the song a little more since I'm beginning on tenor but I couldn't sync the tempo to the click track on the slow version. Would you be able to include the tempo info for the songs? I love meditating to your pieces though. Thanks!

Great eye opener

Although the primary purpose of this exercise is to follow the patterns given (which are excellent) it is also great aid to move away from the guide and explore the excellent chord choices yourself to see where you end up. Recommended.
