A study of improvisation is common for musician, teacher or student in jazz .The rhythm, articulation, and phrasing used in jazz improvisation evolve from the individual's interpretation of what is placed on the page or heard to transfer to an instrument. A dominant 7th chord has the biggest function in jazz for example as a secondary dominant, a triton, an ,altered dominant and the learning and understanding the chords itself is very important in both Jazz improvisation and composition and also a link to major or minor chord. The basic tool in jazz harmony is scale for application in jazz improvisation over dominant7th chord. Thus, the aim ofthis research is only to determine what scales can be used as a vehicle for improvisjltion over a dominant chord and its function to major and to minor and why these scales can be used over it.
