  1. Hello, All The idea is to generate some improvised lines over the Giant Steps progression. Every time the code is evaluated, a different comping and improvisation is generated. In this first effort, the improvisation is generated by the arpeggios resultating from the voice-leading of the progression. After that, I want to code some superimpositions of other chord substitutions. This is something I came with after studying the Harmonic-Path Function ( through some example by Stephane Boussuge) I also got some Drums from Jazz Trio, by Janusz Podrazik. Below is the commented code and an mp3 showing the result. All the best, Julio gsteps_GEN2.mp3 ;; Giant Steps Progression provided as Harmonic Path. ;; Some chords are repeated (the chords that last more time).
