Jazz Harmony Primer: Progressions ep 301

In my previous episode on Jazz Harmony Primer: Chords ep205 we looked at how chords are built. But in this episode we're going to study how those chords are strung together to form progressions. Which is the very heart of how music is made. From the ii V I progression to the I vi ii V progression and everything in between, we'll take a look at how some of your favorite songs are built harmonically. And chord substitutions and chord inversions are a part of how chordal harmonic movement is constructed. So whether it's rock or jazz or pop or whatever, let's investigate the basic structure of music.... 0:00 Start 0:43 Circle Of Fifths Or Fourths 2:09 Relative Minor Chords 3:05 Circle Of Fifths Chord Relationships 4:13 Notation 5:09 Stringing Chords Together 5:40 The Basic Structure 6:42 Exploring the I IV V Progression 7:50 The I vi IV V Progression 8:15 The I vi ii V Progression and Substitutions 9:12 The I V vi IV Progression 10:02 Substituting With Inversions 11:24 The vi IV I V Progression 12:02 The I IV vi V Progression 12:48 The I V ii V Progression 13:26 The ii V I Progression 16:42 Creeping Harmonic Movement and Bossa Nova 18:16 The Blues 20:20 Chord Voicings 22:02 Static Harmony using Quartal Voicings and Shell Chords 24:29 Wrap Up 25:40 Abdullah Ibrahim’s Mannenberg Playout
