Lesson by Willie Myette
When you feel comfortable playing the Major scale hands together and you have completed
practicing the sections on Common Triads & 7th Chords, Natural Minor Scale and Chord
Tensions, you are now ready to practice the iii-V7/ii-ii-V-I progression.
I’ve created a play-along track in 2 tempi for you to use: 80bpm and 120bpm. Both tracks
elongate the iii-V7/ii-ii-V chords to two-beats each. The entire form is 3 measures in length.
Here are the steps (in order) that you should practice:
Total practice time: 20 ~ 40 minutes depending on how much time you devote to each exercise.
There are many other exercise possibilities. Try new ideas. Let your creativity be your guide and
create your own exercises based upon what YOU need to accomplish.
Have fun!
