Here's one of the best Jazz Improv Exercise To Master Tensions using the sus2 chord for every chord in the progression. Work for All Levels. Jazz Tutorial. We use Erroll Garner's "Misty" to show the exercise.
It is a 6-step exercise you can practice every day. And you can stop on any step (but always start on step 1)
Step 1: Broken sus2 chords on consecutive 2-5 progressions
Step 2: Altered the dominant chords by shifting the sus2 up a half-step
Step 3: Altered the dominant chords by playing the sus2 down a half-step
Step 4: Choose a Jazz Standard and play sus2 on every chord
Step 5: Alter the dominants in the song at will
Step 6: Use quartal voicings (1st inversion of the sus2)
Don't forget to practice "free play" after the last step.
