Exploring Coltrane's Tone Circle
Original: Coltrane's Tone Circle
A new write-up examines John Coltrane's famous 'Coltrane Circle', the circular diagram of tones and intervals the saxophonist sketched around 1967 and dedicated to Yusef Lateef. The piece revisits how the chart is read, its links to Lateef's own scale studies, and its enduring grip on musicians puzzling over Coltrane's late harmonic thinking.
Why now: The mysterious diagram continues to fascinate jazz musicians and theory enthusiasts as a window into Coltrane's late-period harmonic ideas.
