'Improvisation By Degrees' (IBD) is an interactive course to develop improvisation skills, for all instruments.
IBD contains explanations, demonstrations, and examples, but most importantly, it contains a progression of interactive drills and play-along multimedia exercises that gradually develop a musician's improvisation ability.
With IBD one learns practically how to use scales and chord notes when improvising on all kinds of chord progressions.
The training strategy has two main objectives: The first objective is to train the musician in mastering the use of pure chord notes ('pillar notes' in IBD terminology) when improvising on chords, and develop a strong sense of harmonic and melodic direction. The second objective is to train the musician in mastering the use of scales and modes. The importance of mastering both chord notes and scales is explained and thoroughly demonstrated from the very beginning of the course.
IBD is mainly designed for intermediate and advanced music
