The minor 7 chords are the major ones to know and play.
I love the minor 7 chords and the whole feel and groove they perform. As always, Jonny explains everything in magic detail and gives you some great tunes to play as well. It really doesn’t get better than this. Thanks Jonny.
Loving it
I simply enjoyed every style :)
Don't skip the minors!
Minor 7ths (minor anythings) get less practice time than majors for me. This is a great course for turning a weakness into a strength and really spend the time to get those chords down. If you've already done the dominant 7th course, this is a good course to really become aware of the 3rd interval.
Great breakdown of concepts along with some fine tips
Enjoyed learning new ,arterial in bit size pieces that were well explained and easy to execute! Had tons of fun
Simple clear explanations. Very informative
I was never taught harmony and doing these courses is helping me learn so much. This is also so helpful in my classical music learning. Thank you.
