๐ฌ Lesson Description
This is an episode of my series called "Make It a Chord Melody."
In the series, we've done a lot of jazz chord melody arranging and improvising.
In this lesson, I show you how to play my "Misty" chord melody arrangement.
"Misty" is a beautiful tune and a classic jazz standard.
In this video, we cover the following:
- how the melody sounds over a backing track
- what happens in the chord progression
- the exact shapes to play “Misty” as a chord melody
- tips and tricks for making your own chord melodies
There is sheet music and tab for you to follow throughout the video, and the end result stands on its own if you play or perform it unaccompanied!
I hope my "Misty" chord melody lesson was beneficial for you!
Let me know what you thought in the comments.
Thanks! :)
