Great Lesson! We can always learn something.

How come you have a major on the Third from the Harmonize scale when it should be the Major-minor- (minor)-Major-Major7- Minor- Diminish. Please I want to know the reason thanks!

@illdoitagain I have a question. How do i make a chord melody for chromatic melodies like nuages by django reinhardt?

Question. What makes a scale "harmonized". Or is this term just being used to indicate that the chosen chord harmonizes with the melody at any given moment? Please advise. thanks

Hi great lesson u solve the mystery behind jazz that is voice leading I believe jazz is complex because it requires a good chord progression to cover voice leading in the Main lead. I like ur style because when I solo play I do the same thing can u plz post more lessons for the same kind to get more insight may be some more songs. Thanks n god bless
this was an excellent lesson my friend. I decided to make my own arrangement for "When you Wish Upon a Star" after watching this. I started it in the key of Cmaj. So, I used the C harmonized scale of course. But I have a question, eventually, one of the melody notes I ran into was a C#. Obviously the C scale has no imperfections so I was wondering if I had no choice but to deviate from the scale for that one note. thanks man!

you have a few options: you can play the Bmin7b5 chord as a dominat sharp 9 (B7#9) and that will give you the C# you need without leaving the scale. You can also play the flat5 sub of the G7 chord (C#7) and this will give what you need without leaving the scale (in theory) or you can play outside the scale and hit that c# in a passing chord that is a half step away from a scale tone. good luck..send me a note if you need further explanation..good luck
