HOW to get into Jazz - 1235

Another concept I like to use is the 1-2-3-5 pattern. This pattern gained popularity through John Coltrane, and it essentially involves playing the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th notes of the scale. For instance, if a Cmaj7 chord is played, the corresponding notes would be C, D, E, and G. In the case of a Cm7 chord, the notes would be C, D, Eb, G. There are numerous ways to execute this pattern across the fretboards, I personally really like tapping it. It can be played in the following variations:

  1. 1253
  2. 1325
  3. 1352
  4. 1523
  5. 1532
  6. 2135
  7. 2153
  8. 2315
  9. 2351
  10. 2513
  11. 2531
  12. 3125
  13. 3152
  14. 3215
  15. 3251
  16. 3512
  17. 3521
  18. 5123
  19. 5132
  20. 5213
  21. 5231
  22. 5312
  23. 5321


I love to practice them over all kinds of chord progressions.

Though it may almost be self-evident, the examples and historical background you are providing help a lot. Theory piece by piece I guess. As my teacher once said: it's all about Mathematics, i.e. the variations! Seems he was right. Thank you!
