Jazz Piano School, Ep 13: Playing Charts Part 1 - Harmonies
Jazz Piano School - A podcast by Brenden Lowe : Professional Jazz Pianist and Jazz Piano Educator
Finally I talk about how to actually play charts. I know someone of you are like "FINALLY!". In this episode I talk about reading chord changes, how to decipher how many beats per chord change and what slash chords are. There is a lot more to playing pieces, but this is the first place to start in which you will actually be able to hear the harmonies of the piece. I guarantee it will make you feel pretty good to be able to hear the tune!
