Description
This course introduces students to intermediate, harmonic techniques used in the jazz repertory. The concept of modal interchange establishes a connection to previous topics and expands the harmonic palette. A focus will also be placed on modulation types and their analysis in song forms commonly found in practical contexts. Rhythm changes and blues harmony complete the survey of frequently used principles in tonal harmony; extended dominants and constant structure progressions are introduced to generate even greater levels of chromaticism.
