Minor chords Stand Alone
Minor chords do not hide in these exercises. They are rich and useful for so many moods and expressions. Enjoyed learning how to change cold theory into actual fun, allowing the focus on one sound - the minor - do take center stage.
Fun walkthrough and rhythmically educational as well
It's always good to work on the basics since they come up so often when you're playing, even though that is mostly unconscious. What I liked especially is that the songs used for each triplet of chords are also rhythmic lessons, which is one of the most important parts of playing jazz. So even though I 'knew' most of the minor chords it was still good to play songs and learn a couple of new rhythms.
Excellent!
Quite challenging but all exercices were fun. I don’t feel confident to share yet but will keep practising, especially the last lesson, working through the chord sequences, hopefully in all keys.
Great pace and packed with learning
Really getting to grips with my dominant chords through this course. Thank you!
Really love minor 7 chord r and b progressions
Jonny is the best piano teacher. Unbelievable!
