Description

This course introduces students to modal harmony in jazz. An examination of character chords and modal cadences connects topics from Jazz Harmony I and II to non-functional harmony. Furthermore, poly-chords, hybrid chords, and quartal voicings are investigated in the context of functional and non-functional harmony. A big portion of the course will examine several advanced reharmonization techniques in order to introduce a new perspective on topics discussed in jazz harmony.
