The notes A ♭ and F serve as upper leading-tones back to G and E (when the chord moves to the tonic, C major), respectively, rather than B ♮ and F serving as the lower and upper leading-tones to C and E in a conventional G7-C major (V7-I) cadence. A backdoor IV-V is also possible, moving from ♭ VI M7 to ♭ VII 7 to I. This is also ...
A tritone substitution is the substitution of one dominant seventh chord (possibly altered or extended) with another that is three whole steps (a tritone) from the original chord. In other words, tritone substitution involves replacing V 7 with ♭ II 7 [7] (which could also be called ♭ V 7 /V, subV 7, [7] or V 7 / ♭ V [7] ).
Stomp progression. In music and jazz harmony, the Stomp progression is an eight-bar chord progression named for its use in the "stomp" section of the composition "King Porter Stomp" (1923) by Jelly Roll Morton. The composition was later arranged by Fletcher Henderson, adding greater emphasis on the Trio section, containing a highly similar ...
In the standard Coltrane change cycle the ii–V–I is substituted with a progression of chords that cycle back to the V–I at the end. In a 4 4 piece, each chord gets two beats per change. Coltrane developed this modified chord progression for "Countdown", which is much more complex.
Rhythm changes. Rhythm changes is a common 32- bar jazz chord progression derived from George Gershwin 's "I Got Rhythm". The progression is in AABA form, with each A section based on repetitions of the ubiquitous I–vi–ii–V sequence (or variants such as iii–vi–ii–V), and the B section using a circle of fifths sequence based on III 7 ...
The ii–V–I progression is "a staple of virtually every type of [Western] popular music", including jazz, R&B, pop, rock, and country. [1] Examples include " Honeysuckle Rose " (1928), which, "features several bars in which the harmony goes back and forth between the II and V chords before finally resolving on the I chord," [1] " Satin Doll ...
In this perspective, the first chord Am7/D (D, A, C, E, G) can be thought of as a Dm9 chord (D, F, A, C, E) with a suspended 4th (G instead of F). Along these lines, Jazz.com's Ted Gioia describes the harmonic progression used as "four suspended chords," Jerry Coker describes the progression as "only sus. 4 chords," From this perspective, the ...
Concerto in F (Gershwin) Concerto in F is a composition by George Gershwin for solo piano and orchestra which is closer in form to a traditional concerto than his earlier jazz-influenced Rhapsody in Blue. It was written in 1925 on a commission from the conductor and director Walter Damrosch. It is just over half an hour long.
