In this episode of What’s So Great About Melodic Minor, we take a deep dive into one of the most harmonically sophisticated compositions in jazz history: Herbie Hancock’s "Dolphin Dance." This iconic piece from the album Maiden Voyage is a masterclass in harmonic innovation and lyrical melody.
We’ll begin by unpacking the tune’s unique harmonic structure, discussing how Hancock’s use of shifting tonal centers creates an evocative, dream-like atmosphere. From there, we’ll break down the intricate chord progressions and explore the role of subtle reharmonizations that give the tune its timeless, ethereal quality.
Listeners will gain insights into how to navigate these changes in their own playing, whether as a soloist or accompanist. We’ll touch on creative approaches for improvisation, including melodic minor and other scale options, and we’ll share examples from classic recordings and contemporary interpretations.
Whether you’re a jazz guitarist, pianist, or simply a fan of Herbie Hancock, this episode will deepen your understanding of "Dolphin Dance" and inspire new ideas for your musical journey. Tune in and let’s explore the waves of this beautiful composition together!
