In this workshop, Jonny will walk you step-by-step on how to play Hark the Herald Angels Sing in a beautiful jazz ballad piano style.
We’ll start with memorizing the lead sheet melody & chords. Then we’ll transform the left hand chords into a beautiful jazz ballad accompaniment. Once we master the left hand, we’ll harmonize the right hand using chord extensions. Then we’ll discover 1 scale we can use to solo over this entire song, along with a pre-composed solo written by Jonny.
To complete the arrangement, we’ll learn a stock intro & outro, and combine all the techniques we learned for a gorgeous Christmas classic!
