When it comes to coming to be an excellent jazz improviser, it's all about learning jazz improvisation techniques language. So unlike the 'half-step below strategy' (which can be outside the scale), when coming close to from above it appears much better when you keep your notes within the scale that you remain in. That's why it's called the 'chord range above' technique - it stays in the scale.
So as opposed to playing 2 8 notes straight, which would last one quarter note ('one' - 'and'), you can divide that quarter note into 3 '8th note triplet' notes - where each note of the triplet is the same size. The very first improvisation technique is 'chord tone soloing', which means to compose tunes utilizing the 4 chord tones of the chord (1 3 5 7).
For this to work, it needs to be the following note up within the range that the music remains in. This offers you 5 notes to play from over each chord (1 3 5 7 9) - which is plenty. This can be related to any kind of note size (half note, quarter note, 8th note) - yet when soloing, it's generally applied to eighth notes.
Just come before any chord tone by playing the note a half-step below. To do this, stroll up in half-steps (via the whole colorful range), and make note of all the notes that aren't in your existing range. Cm7 voicing (7 9 3 5) with single tune note (C) played to interesting rhythm.
Currently you could play this 5 note range (the incorrect notes) over the exact same C small 7 chord in your left hand. With this method you simply play the exact same notes that you're already playing in the chord. Chord scale over - half-step below - target note (e.g. E - C# - D).
KEEP IN MIND: You likewise get a wonderful series of steps to play, from 7 - 1 - 9 - 3 - if you want to play a brief range in your solo. Nevertheless, to quit your playing from appearing predictable (and break out of eighth note pattern), you need to vary the rhythms once in a while.
