Mike Brecker style Diminished scale asymetrical pentatonic over G13b9


This is an asymetrical diminished pentatonic scale. It's based on Abdim7 and while the pentatonic scale itself
is asymetrical, the diminished scale is symetrical, meaning you can move up a minor 3rd and play the same
pattern and it will work over the same chords.


Because it's diminished based and not melodic minor, the alterations are different over a G7. Unlike the altered
scale, you have a natural 13 so the chord would be G13b9#9#4 and of course Bb7, Db7, E7.


You can of course use this over Abmaj7, Bmaj7, DMaj7, FMaj7 ala Herbie Hancock


There are 2 versions here with one being a slight variation of different notes in the diminished scale that the pentatonic is derived from. Since the pentatonic is asymetrical, you can really do whatever you want with it!


Remember, I give private lessons so hmu if you're interested. More info on my website.
