If your jazz chord progressions sound plain or repetitive, here's one simple trick that can make them sound much more professional.
Most piano students play a basic I–ii–V progression exactly as it's written. But professional jazz pianists almost never stop there.
Instead, they create movement by adding chords that naturally pull the listener toward the next harmony.
In this lesson, Willie Myette shows you one of the easiest reharmonization techniques you can start using today to transform an ordinary progression into something rich, smooth, and expressive.
You'll discover:
• One simple reharmonization concept you can use immediately
• How to create stronger movement between chords
• Why professional jazz pianists rarely leave long stretches of harmony untouched
This is just one technique from the complete lesson, where Willie also covers:
• Secondary dominants
• Related ii chords
• Constant-motion reharmonization
• Tritone substitutions
• Using the Circle of Fifths to create beautiful jazz progressions
If you're ready to make your chord progressions sound like real jazz, you won't want to miss the full lesson.
