Harmonizing a Melody

Today we work on harmonizing a melody using a simple diatonic progression with interesting voicings. We analyze the melody (Eb major), demonstrate thinking backwards from the cadence (2-5-1, backdoor, plagal paths), and present inner-cluster voicings that leave space for the melody while creating middle-density harmony. The lesson also covers a relative-minor reharmonization (C minor) and a modulation using mixolydian 7sus4 voicings to move up a half step. PDF sheet music is available via the links above.
