If your jazz chord progressions sound empty or repetitive, this lesson will completely change the way you think about harmony.
In this step-by-step jazz piano lesson, Willie Myette demonstrates how to transform a simple I–ii–V progression into a rich, professional-sounding arrangement using five powerful reharmonization techniques.
You'll learn how each new chord creates stronger movement, tension, and resolution without making the progression overly complicated.
In this lesson you'll learn:
• How to add diatonic passing chords
• Using secondary dominants to create forward motion
• Related ii chords that naturally lead into dominant chords
• Beautiful constant-motion reharmonization ideas
• Tritone substitutions made simple
• How the Circle of Fifths helps build better progressions
• How professional jazz pianists fill long stretches of harmony
Whether you're learning jazz standards, accompanying singers, or improving your improvisation, these techniques will instantly make your piano playing sound fuller, smoother, and more sophisticated.
