Here's a chord-melody arrangement of the head to ``Giant Steps''
By John Coltrane. Most of the chord voicings have been opened to
Mostly fourth, tritone, and fifth intervals (so-called ``quartal
Harmony''), giving a very nice ambiguous sound. These voicings are
Easy to finger on the guitar and sound good. I give the chord names
In two forms: a name for a simple ``closed'' voicing, (top) and a name
For the more open or extended voicing (bottom).
Giant Steps by John Coltrane
Harm. by Bo Parker (parker_b%[email protected])
To tie in with the discussion of picking technique, I pick these as
Block chords using either all four fingers or the first three fingers
(no thumb, no arpeggiation). When I pick stuff like this, I do not
Anchor my right hand at all, and I play over the sound hole. I can't
Really solo over these changes(!), but it's fun just to play the head.
Enjoy
