To paraphrase and explore the implications of the material in the 1959 edition, appended page E: Scale degree modulation is the technique uses for constructing a pan-modal melody in the parent Lydian Chromatic Scale, the one to which the melody is being related. Scale Degree Modulation is based on t...

I haven't seen was inside this book. But it's supposed to be based on LCC.

Got a little somethin' going here:

II is the PMG of choice for an SMG makeover, with VI coming in second.
Treating a II like a VI gives it a 11th or sus 4 vibe.
The LA is a preferred parent scale for the SMG.

The choice for a SMG looks like it could be anything, so should be examined in context to see if there's a pattern.

1. Major is major
2. Major Sharp 5th: with the (V) aka Major Bebop scale; without the (V) aka VI harmonic minor.
3. Major Flat Seventh aka Mixolydian mode.
4. African-American Blues Scale is a composite of major and the blues hexachord (1 b3 4 b5 5 b7).

II > LA VI
Vi > LA VII
II > LA bVI ?
II > L VI
II > LA III
VI > LA bII ?

? using LC

I'm getting confused.

I will revisit this after more coffee &/or sleep.

SMG: Is there a pattern or principle?
Coltrane (Straight No Chaser):
LII > LA VI
LII > L VII
LII > LA V+
LII > LA VII

Miles (Four):
LA VI > L bIII
L VI > L bVI 9 t.o.

Dolphy (to be continued...)

An effective 'slide rude' can be created by taking the 'The Lydian Chromatic Order of Tonal Gravity" table (http://lydianchromaticconcept.com/lccoto_2.html), setting the Interactive circle of fifths to the Lydian scale at the tonic of choice, and mentally juxtaposing Chart A. (Accommodating, of...

HTG as in chord substitution?

It sounded to my drummer's ears that Sr. Rubalcaba went through Charts A-Z on his solo. He's really fired up on that clip. I heard him live and his playing was quiet, sensitive, and austere. What a range of emotion this guys got. My old trio mate, Jeff Chambers, played with him for a while. I wonder...

Can you say more about that?
