You can also get wild and choose to work on a particular extension in this exercise. So, Dominant 7 #11 for example. You would emphasize that sound/color all the way through, to really get comfortable with it. Have fun!

It is recommended that you watch "Beyond the Arpeggios: Overview" and then watch this video.

1. Pick chord quality
2. Play the arpeggio in all 12 keys (choose ascending or descending, choose interval to shift through ex: half-step, minor 3rd)
3. Improvise lightly on root position arpeggio through all 12 just within the octave
4. Improvise a cadenza on each arpeggio without tempo/time res...

You'll start a half-step below the "target pitch". Ascend a minor 3rd, descend a half-step, descend another whole-step, and rise up a half-step to the target note! Try this using the 1, 3, 5 of a Major Arpeggio as your target pitches. You'll find this dramatically changes the sound of your solos/...
