This is a simple Altered Melody that works on a dominant 7th chord with a #5, #11, #9 and b9 and comes from the 7th mode of melodic minor (i.e. B7 alt = the 7th mode of C melodic minor).
This melody should help you learn the altered scale in the context of a melodic phrase that resolves a 4th away (i.e. G7 Alt resolving to C major)
The melody is played around the circle of 4ths through all 12 keys.

Use this mp3 to learn to sing and “hear” the melody well. Once you can hear it well, learn to play it on your instrument.
~ Enjoy!
