How To Build Bebop Lines - Level 4 - Day 24 - Confirmation Sequence

Confirmation is one of the most popular bebop tunes, and is a great tune to become familiar with the ii V7 chord progression. This exercise aligns with the third measure of Confirmation, which consist of a sequence of ii V7 chords. For this pattern, start on the b5, then go down the arpeggio to the 3rd of the dominant. Keep alternating the arpeggios up and down. Confirmation changes are found in many different tunes - either as a whole, or in part. For example, Bluesette uses the same changes.

Below you will find a backing track along with PDFs for the exercise.
