MANY jazz videos including many from Wayne State University’s “Tenor MADNESS” (Francois Louis, Jerry Bergonzi, Claudio Zolla, Chris Collins and others…http://www.banddirector.com/resourcelibrary/category/13

"In my youth, I often heard great jazz musicians preparing for a concert by warming-up with various arpeggio exercises. I soon learned these exercises were chords and their inversions; one of the foundational elements of jazz improvisation and something I needed to practice and understand. For my students, I have created several exercises that allow them to absorb the sound of chords and their inversions, and develop the necessary mental and physical technique to freely manipulate the basic chord tones. While these exercises may not always be fun, they will start the disciplined/patient student on the road to musical improvisation." Chris Collins. http://www.banddirector.com/article/rl-jazz-band-articles/jazz-improv-pg1?resourcelibrary=2
