Tritones are very important, especially if you have a bass player in your band. Your can utilize your left hand with tritones and continue to play chords or scale runs with your right hand.
C bass goes with E + Bb
Db bass goes with F + B
D bass goes with Gb + C
Eb bass goes with G + Db
E bass goes with Ab + D
F bass goes with A + Eb
Gb bass goes with Bb + E
G bass goes with B + F
Ab bass goes with C + Gb
A bass goes with Db + G
Bb bass goes with D + Ab
B bass goes with Eb + A
C bass goes with E + Bb
Db bass goes with F + B
RULE #1: Tritones are symmetric.
That means that E+Bb can also be played as Bb+E.
… or Gb + C can be played as C + Gb.
RULE #2: Since there are really only 6 unique tritones, each tritone
shares TWO bass notes.
For example, E+Bb / or Bb + E is used both with a “C” or “Gb” bass.
… or D + Ab / or Ab + D is used both with a “Bb” or “E” bass.
Practice these tritones with your left hand and add some chords withy your right. Practice does make perfect.
God Bless
