You see the notes of the scale better in your mind if you can play them in many different patterns. BUT not just straight up and down, doing them in MANY patterns. Niles HI sure do Niles! Any serious improvisor has spent a lot of time on scales. would concur on both Coker and Sevcik recommendations. No doubt players like Don Steirnberg, Don Julin, Mike Marshall, Peter Martin etc. Worked a lot with the Sevcik School of Violin Technics(in four parts: 1 Exercises in First Position, 2 Exercises in the 2nd-7th Positions, 3 Shifting, 4 Doublsetops) Both my fiddling younger brother Erik and I (me on mandolin)studied with a violinist named Nick DeCollibus, who was a friend/cohort of Joe Venuti, for a number of years (79-83 or so).

Intervallic scale studies/exercises can be found in most technique books for just about every instrument. You can find used copies for a little as $11 or $12. It's still in print after 50 years (published in 1970!) and available at Amazon etc. I used the book a lot in the late 70s and early 80s and occasionally pick it up nowadays (albeit on flute) to play with Lydian dominant, and other more unusual scales. What I would like to know is do you know a good book or internet site that would have scales exercices focusing on differents intervals? And is there exercice that you do or have done that help you have better understanding how the different intervals works and get the placement of it on the fretboard in your mind.ĬharlieThe classic Jerry Coker book PATTERNS FOR JAZZ has plenty of these type drills.
