More of 4 tonal centres bits. Shedding a [ ii- I ] Ionian cadence shape moving between them. Here's a bit of improv with the idea, warts and all.

Improvisation using 4 tonal centres. I found this a few years ago but never practised it much, then saw the concepg again in a super good pair of good videos by jhighlandkeys that broke this down. Looking forward to more of this.

Quartal triads, swipe for some explanation. Taking this through Ionian, Dorian and Mixolydian modes of all keys, this is Db Ionian at 160bpm.

Warts and all. It feels lke a bit of a stretch calling Four a bebop tune. Playing at 70%, this is the version from Workin'. Tried to articulate a bit less aggressively today.
Playing bebop heads as etudes to get more.comfortable on the flute - here's Donna Lee at 50% speed. I'm going to work on my articulation soon, it's kinda choppy.
Didn't exactly get it in one. Slowly getting more comfortable with the flute, a bunch of warts in these clips. Doing a bunch of tone exercises from Moyse, cheers @tedwardmitchell2022 for the tip.
Practising building longer lines from component parts, inspired by a video by @jeffschneidermusic that I saw recently. First time practising in quite some time, my tone has suffered...

False fingerings using Stick Control by George Lawrence Stone, got to get these up to speed and work them into some phrases 🔥 Cheers @petegalea for showing me this 🙏
