Part two of my "Game-Changing Approach" to jazz comping series. In this lesson, escape the cage of chord shapes-you don't need to memorize as much as you think. In this interactive lesson, you'll learn how to comp for real using dominant 7 family chords: flexibly, interactively, and creatively.
These are the videos that Big Chord Book doesn't want you to see.
Learn voice leading techniques without having to wonder what that means
Discover and practice how to interact with a soloist
Combine a simple scale with basic "shell voicings" to unlock a whole world of chord sounds
Also great for keyboard
As usual in my videos, if you teach jazz, this lesson models effective pedagogy - today, a good way to help students learn the art of comping and explore dominant chords.
