When it involves ending up being a terrific jazz improviser, it's everything about finding out jazz piano improvisation Book language. So unlike the 'half-step listed below method' (which can be outside the scale), when approaching from over it appears much better when you keep your notes within the scale that you're in. That's why it's called the 'chord range over' strategy - it remains in the scale.
So rather than playing 2 8 notes in a row, which would certainly last one quarter note ('one' - 'and'), you can divide that quarter note right into three 'eighth note triplet' notes - where each note of the triplet coincides size. The very first improvisation strategy is 'chord tone soloing', which suggests to make up melodies utilizing the four chord tones of the chord (1 3 5 7).
For this to work, it requires to be the following note up within the range that the music remains in. This offers you 5 notes to play from over each chord (1 3 5 7 9) - which is plenty. This can be related to any type of note size (fifty percent note, quarter note, eighth note) - but when soloing, it's generally related to 8th notes.
Just precede any type of chord tone by playing the note a half-step below. To do this, walk up in half-steps (with the entire chromatic scale), and make note of all the notes that aren't in your present range. Cm7 expression (7 9 3 5) with single tune note (C) played to fascinating rhythm.
Currently you could play this 5 note range (the wrong notes) over the very same C small 7 chord in your left hand. With this technique you simply play the same notes that you're already playing in the chord. Chord range above - half-step below - target note (e.g. E - C# - D).
NOTE: You also obtain a nice series of steps to play, from 7 - 1 - 9 - 3 - if you want to play a short scale in your solo. However, to stop your having fun from appearing predictable (and burst out of eighth note pattern), you require to vary the rhythms now and then.
