Can you please help me identify Bebop specific pitch related techniques?
What I mean by that so that my question doesn't sound confusing as it is:
- What specific pitches, scale fragment outlines, etc. did majority of Bebop players favor?
Of course each master had his(her? ) own charachteristic arsenal of techniques but definitely they all had common techniques that made Bebop style so recognizable.
Example: perhaps a single trademark pitch-related technique is 3 to 9 gesture, for instance as Eb-G-Bb-D over C-min. (Or maybe better E-G-Bb-bD over C7)
What other pitch-specific outlines, or just single pitches were favored by Bebop musicians? Please name the context as well.
Please note that I'm not asking about abstract techniques such as for instance approach tones or tritone substitutions, though the latter would probably fit the subject.
I don't think if we generalize this subject for an average Bebop player it will sum up to over 10 such pitch-specific techniques. If it were the case the style would become too constricted and uncreative.
