It's time to review and put some pieces together before our next unit where we will learn to turn chords into voicings. I really love the exercise in this review because it demonstrates the beauty of how modes can simplify our scale choices with popular chord progressions like the 251. We also have a very cool new original composition 'Whistle This' to demonstrate how some of these concepts can be applied musically. As always take as long or short as you need to digest the information in this video!
