In this resource we take 5 notes John Coltrane played on his stunningly lyrical solo on 'Wise One ' from his Classic 'Crescent' album and use them to construct an abundance of fresh, inspiring challenging practice material.
This 'new' 5 note Pentatonic is unique as it features the optimistic Natural 6thand the emotional 9th of the minor (unlike the traditional minor Pentatonic), making it perhaps more exotic and unusual.
The unexpected melodic shapes the Coltrane Pentatonic note yield provide a wealth of challenging material for the player who hungry for new sounds.
The most amazing thing about the John Coltrane pentatonic though is the number of chords over which it can be played!
Learning how to superimpose this Pentatonic scale over multiple chords will take your playing and improvisation to a higher level.

Hi Gregory Thanks for your kind words! Best , Jazz Duets
This book and the included resources provide an excellent jumping off point for exploring an incredibly versatile pentatonic scale. I've incorporated these exercises into my regular practice, and have found them incredibly illuminating.
I was looking to receive a book with the material/exercises.in it. But after further review ,you did say this would be a download material. I am still reviewing material, but it looks great so far.
Very good. I’m still learning the Pentatonic exercise
I'm just working with the item and I think it's helfull.
I love all the Jazz Duets content as a guitarist. Concepts like the this are particularly useful to us guitar players. I also love how Jazz duets is big on encouraging the reader to really use these exercises to create their own lines with their own unique musical voice. Bravo guys, keep up the great content!
A clear analysis work for learning, purposeful to apply the same method to the study of other melodic themes. The marketing incentive is also motivating to access the product. Thank you for your work.
Great and ill be back for more. It is good for my students. Thank you!
Une bonne méthode pédagogique, permettant de s'approprier cette gamme pentatonique à la sauce Coltrane. J'espère qu'il sera proposé un jour la même approche avec la Paul Desmond ;)
Hi guys, I've purchased this fantastic course a few days ago and I can't stop practicing. It's super clear and super fun to play! :-)
Very good and interesting experience
Just getting started on it. Quite amazing. Good package. Thanks!
