Being able to improvise through chord changes in a melodic and coherent way can be pretty tough, but sometimes it's even harder to improvise over static (non-changing) harmony! Focusing on the non-note musical elements is crucial because when playing over a single chord you don't have the harmonic motion of a progression.

In this video I wanted to take that to the next level, and improvise over one chord FOR AN HOUR! How did I do with this? What did I think after? Watch to find out!
