How To Play Jazz Chord Progressions

How To Play Jazz Chord Progressions Hey Fernando, For the most part, popular chord progressions in the Rock genre are basic and up to this point we haven't played anything more complicated than a 7th chord. This lesson changes things up a bit... This lesson is based on a very, very common jazz sequence called the 2-5-1. There is also a diminished chord at the end of the progression to turn back to the beginning again. In this style, you'll almost always find the "2" chord as a minor sound. The "5" chord will always be dominant of some kind and quite often altered in some way. This means the 5th of the chord or the 9th (possibly both) will be raised or lowered. I'm demonstrating the progression in three keys that are popular in the Jazz genre and chose to play variations on each of them since there are so many possibilities when you're dealing with Jazz harmony. Have fun with this one! Example 1:     Am7       D7b9      Gmaj7   G#dim7 E |-----------------------------------| B |-5----------4-----------3-------3--| G |-5----------5-----------4--------4-| D |-5----------4-----------4--------3-| A |------------5----------------------| E |-5----------------------3--------4-|  Example 2:     Gm9       C13       Fmaj7     F#dim7 E |-------------------------------------| B |-10---------10---------10-------10---| G |-10---------9----------9--------8----| D |-8----------8----------10-------10---| A |-10--------------------8--------9----| E |------------8------------------------| Example 3:     Cm9      F7b9#5    Bbmaj9        Bdim7 E |-10---------9---------8-------------7---| B |-8----------7---------6-------------6---| G |-8----------8---------7-------------7---| D |-8----------7---------7-------------6---| A |------------8---------------------------| E |-8--------------------6-----------------|   Chord Progression Mastery One of the final stages you'll go through before beginning to learn songs will be guitar chord progressions designed for practice.
