Modern Jazz Reharmonization Techniques: Tritone sub, Coltrane Changes and Modal

video thumbnail
Reharmonization techniques are useful in many ways in Jazz both in improvising and arranging. In this video I will go over 5 reharmonizations of a part of All The Things You Are. The different versions will illustrate several techniques and options for reharmonizing the standard. Some of the concepts are tonal and functional others are in the modal or atonal end of the spectrum.

I mostly hope to give you some ideas on how to think about the progressions that are not really functional and tonal, but that you can still percieve and mold as musical phrases.

The PDF for the chord melodies is available on Patreon and in the Patreon FB group 😊
