NOTE: THIS EXERCISE SHOULD BE PRACTICED FOR MONTHS TO MASTER IT

The idea here is simple…

Go to the Root of each chord and ascend the 7 notes of the relevant scale.

Master this in as many keys as you can and then start applying it to blues progressions etc.

Here’s the basic pattern.

Once you have that down instead of going to the root, go to other notes of the scale and ascend 7 notes.

1. 1-2-3-4-5-6-7
2. 2-3-4-5-6-7-1
3. 3-4-5-6-7-1-2
4. 4-5-6-7-1-2-3
5. 5-6-7-1-2-3-4
6. 6-7-1-2-3-4-5
7. 7-1-2-3-4-5-6

I recommend practicing the bold patterns first as they are more likely to yield desiring sounds as they all start on chord tones
