Joseph Befumo’s Exotic Scales: New Horizons for Jazz Improvisation begins with “Basic Harmonic Theory, Diatonic Scales, and Modes,” and then jumps into scales ranging from the somewhat traditional Melodic Minor and Neapolitan Major to more uncommon ones like the Dhenuka, and the Enigmatic Minor. Scales are cataloged and presented according to the number of augmented intervals they contain. Befumo shows you the intervals that build each scale, where the notes lie on a regular six-string guitar using tablature, and the makeup and function of the chords built from the scale tones.
