Anyone fond of Mr. Galper's saying about improvisation should check dr. Ed Byrne. He has develop a thourogh system of melody reduction, guide-tone lines, Root progression and rhythmic reduction to improvisation, just like Hal is explaining here. It's worth checking it. Just google for ByrneJazz.

i'm with hal on all this. but what's up with the "showing chords in stacks" comment? i'm not really getting what he's saying here and why that's not harmony. not saying he's wrong, i literally just do not comprehend what the criticism is.

what exactly does he mean by chord scale relationship guide to improv? Is he saying that playing scales over chord progressions is bogus?

@187alacran
Chord-scale shredding is not bogus if that's what your brain impulsively sends to your fingers and you happen to like it. It is bogus if you're just doing an intellectual exercise. Try to create resonance in your listeners.

What does he mean by "rhythmically inactive"?

@messerJ4H For excample On Gershwin's You Can't take that away from me, you play Eflat on the melody for each word "the way you wear your- hat" going to G on hat. These are 8th and 16th note. You can nicely imply this melody by playing just one Eflat and one G. This is "rhythmically inactive" i.e., no 16 and 8ths just whole or half notes [the 5th and 3rd of the chord of the moment in this case] as you sing the words.
I think this is what it means. Try above to see .

He means, hardly any 1/8 th notes in the rhythm in the written melody.

This is so great. I am always saying that learning modes and chord scales and all that stuff is just an approach for a teacher to give you something to do. It's academic.

Wow. He's completely right. I understood his embellishments so much better when he explained what he meant and played those simple melodies.

let the melody be your guide -- little jimminy cricket style bit of advice. and dead right. all the great solos do just that. e.g. red garland's piano solo in miles' version of "it never entered my mind." the examples are abundant.
