Improvising Using Minor Triads Plus One Note
Using Minor Triad Arpeggios - Plus One for Creating Melodic Solos.
With chord tones, the notes of a chord playing a predominant role in writing melodies and in improvised melodies. The triad plus one additional note is a great melodic device for creating melodies - either written or improvised.
A triad contains three notes.
For a minor triad these notes are the first, flat third and fifth (1 b3 5) of it’s corresponding major scale with the same root.
For C minor the notes are C Eb G. Our added note can be any diatonic ( part of a C minor scale ) or chromatic note ( not part of a C minor scale ).
One of the first notes to add that sounds great with a minor triad is a fourth of the scale. In the case of C minor that’s F for C Eb F G.

Just browsing over both books, they look fantastic! I'm a guitarist and uke player for over 25 years and was thinking about writing a ukulele book but you've already written what I think are the best, most comprehensive and thorough books I've ever seen for the instrument. I just might end up buying every book you've written and I'll be giving my highest recommendation for your books to my friends and students. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such great books! — Peter Rhee
