[Music] so that's a lot of chords let's take this chord by chord first of all what this chord progression is and how it started was first of all an e minor seven chord and it goes up to a g major seven chord which then goes up to a b minor 7 chord so and really this section is in b minor so b minor is the one chord of this section and then we go down to an a major chord which would normally just be an a major chord within the key of b minor but i actually added a major seventh which is a g sharp which actually modulates from the scale of b minor because b minor scale would have a g so this is kind of coming out of key just in a subtle way just by adding a major seventh then we come back to the g major seven chord then we go to an f sharp minor seven chord and when i get to this point i need to bring us back to the starting chord because i want to repeat that progression a second time so to get back from f sharp i use tritone substitution and i play an f dominant seven chord which resolves nicely down a half step to e minor seven so tritone substitution is basically preceding any chord whether it's a major seven or a minor seven just counting up a half step and building a dominant seven chord so that's what i do but i decorate all of these chords with much more sophisticated chord voicings of course so first of all for all of the minor seven chords and all of the major seven chords i am using the kenny baron chord voicing so for e minor seven again i'm going to play a stack of fifths in my left hand and i'm going to find the chords third which is a minor third from e it's gonna be g and then i build a stack of fifths from g like this then we go to a g major seven chord and again i'm going to play the kenny baron voicing root fifth ninth i'm going to play the chords third which is a major third so it's going to be b natural stack of fifths we're gonna get this lovely major seventh and sharp four or sharp eleven then we go to b minor seven and i'm going to build the kenny brown chord voicing here again so stack of fifths from the root gives me root fifth ninth then i'm going to play which type of third for a b minor seven chord it's going to be a minor third so it's going to be up a half step from the ninth d stack of fifths out from there and we get this then we go to the a major seven chord and here i'm going to play the kenny barron voicing but for a major seven so stack of fifths in the left hand the left hand's always the same whether it's major or minor but this chord is going to have which type of third it's a major chord so we're gonna have a major third c sharp stack of fifths out from c sharp and here we get this lovely sharp four up here then we go to g major seven again kenny baron voicing root fifth ninth major third stack of fifths up from there we've already had this chord then we go to the f sharp minor seven chord almost finished here f sharp minor seven again kenny brown chord voicing so stack of fifths in the left hand and the stack of fifths in the right from the third which is going to be a minor third for f sharp minor seven [Music] stack of fifths and then finally we come to an f dominant seven chord which is the tritone substitution which will then resolve back to the e minor seven chord and then we'll start again so for f dominant seven i voice it like this root then the chord seventh which is a flat seventh so it's going to be a whole step below the root up here [Music] then we have the major third which is a and then i play this as an upper structure voicing which means i'm going to play basically a g major triad in my right hand but i'm going to rearrange the notes i'm going to invert it so that's more in the same place i'm going to take the top two notes bring them down an octave and that is my lovely upper structure voicing for f dominant seven you can always invert these these upper structure triads like this this this this this but i want it here because my melody note i want to resolve down to the ninth of e minor [Music] so if you really want to learn this piece i encourage you to download the sheet music it's absolutely free i'm giving away the sheet music to this composition for free you can download it at the link below or go to jazz tutorial dot com forward slash free
