Massive amount of skills and techniques to learn.
It’s taken me months to go through all the lessons in this course, there is so much content being taught and it’s all fundamental and essential stuff. Very brain and fingers expanding and huge amount of fun.
Play Piano lead sheets with 7th chords
As expected, a great course, It has taken time to get used to using block chords in my left hand, but I have perservered and am enjoying playing the songs and learning the progressions.
I have worked on the smart sheet course and really liked the great music so moving on to the course
Love the depth of this course, could spend the rest of my life on this and never get tired of applying the principals taught here
excellent course
step by step guide through several important progressions. clear and easy to follow.
amazing content
This course really demystified the basics of jazz chords for me, and introduced me to a bunch of progressions I never heard of. I'm new to jazz and focusing mostly on blues. But this course opened up so many possibilities. Loved the song examples to understand the progressions, love the building block approach that can be applied to any song once you get started, great pace for getting to know the content.
