Tuscany International Guitar Workshop, June 13-15, 2012 Certaldo, Italy

In this workshop, you will learn how to improvise better solos and build phrases naturally by exploring the potential of triads and their melodic extensions. Garrison will teach you how to develop a more melodic way of thinking about harmony, and learn the improvisational tools that will help you create your own approach to soloing over chord changes.

In this workshop you will also learn to create solo phrases in the styles of some of the world’s finest jazz guitarists—Jim Hall, Grant Green, Kenny Burrell, Wes Montgomery and Pat Martino.

• Broaden your melodic palette using triads, melodic extensions, guide tones, and altered notes.
• Expand your agility on the fretboard, throughout the range of the guitar
• Add articulation to your phrases by playing solo excerpts in the styles of the masters of jazz guitar
• Learn to hear and use guide tones to connect your melodic lines while playing over chord changes
• Learn the rhythmic skills essential to jazz phrasing
• Learn simple techniques for building chord voicings for comping
