10-MINUTE JAZZ IMPROV VOL 4 TWO-FIVE-ONE

Vol. 4: The ii-V-I Progression

Series: Southern Music Band
Publisher: Southern Music
Level: 4
Composer: Jim Mahaffey

- After mastering lessons and skills learned in the previous volumes, Volume 4 teaches the popular ii-V-I progression in three settings. Students use learned skills for a ii-V-I progression (Cmi9-F9-BbMaj9) in Bb concert.

- A second setting transposes to Eb concert, a ii-V-I that leads to the IV chord Eb, or Fmi9-Bb9-Eb.

- A third setting introduces students to a ii-V-I type of progression which leads to the relative minor on G, or Ami7(b5)-D9-Gm.

- The flat 5 and diminished vii chord are discussed and plenty of examples are given. In each section, the modal sequence of dorian-mixolydian-lydian is stressed and practiced.

- The bonus chart 251 Swing Street teaches ii-V-I progressions and the swing style.
