[Dorian Arpeggios and Sounds] Here's an assortment of arpeggios inspired by the work of Ted Greene, Joe Diorio and Don Mock. In this handout, I've listed out different arpeggios that you can use as part of lines and solos in C Dorian. The names for the arpeggios are guidelines as there's often more than one way to analyze these sounds. Have fun by playing through these with a C minor backing track or vamp.
