I made myself a neat little exercise for tracing the C major scale, using leading tones, and I use it sometimes to get ideas for soloing over songs in Am and C major. Learn and memorize this entire run.

After doing this, try tracing the Am arpeggio and note the slight differences. I got this idea from learning the Patrick Sassois head to Djangos Tiger and also from Appel Direct, which I still am unable to play. I personally find Appel Direct even harder than the head to Rhythm Futur.
