Dim and Aug Patterns

Here are some very Coltrane-like diminished and augmented patterns transcribed off of tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander’s performance of the song “Matchmaker, Matchmaker” on his CD titled The Second Milestone. These are just little snippets of patterns and I transcribed them into all keys. The diminished patterns run from measures 1 to 6 and the augmented patterns run from measures 7 to 12. I have also provided mp3 snippets.
