Dave I’ve been playing for a long time mostly self taught and always had a problem with 2 5 1s I’ve got to say this is the best example I’ve come across and easy to understand thank you very much.
So timely for me! Thanks for this lesson, Dave. I've been working on 2-5-1s in all 12 keys for a few months now in self paced online lessons. Yes, a few months. It's because what you say is entirely true -- you have to be patient and take time, no rushing through. If you make the foundation, what follows will be so much easier. Your lesson filled in some things that my online didn't cover, so I am going to rewatch/relisten. Looking forward to the next one. Excellent!
Thank you so much for this video! It’s been so frustrating trying to learn this, and every video you find, they already expect you to know all this. Starting from scratch makes this so much more enjoyable. 🙏🏽
Your teaching style is so relaxing and helpful. Truly my favorite vibe for a teacher, and the same I try to achieve with my students. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with so many people. +++
Thank you Dave. I am fairly new to the sax and this video was a light bulb moment for me. Straight forward and easy to understand. Thanks again. Dave Hersey. (UK)
You have a new fan...me! Your way to teach and approach music theory is awesome! Thank you for sharing your vast jazz knowledge with the jazz sax community! 👏👏👍👍
Hola Dave great teaching vid as allways, i am still ingressed in your chord tone blue bossa vid making slow progress this is going to be a great addition for me thanks so much bro....Peter......Spain
Appreciate this, Dave! I've been learning standards out of the Real Book, and trying to make connections where I see them. (classical player who only got to dip his feet into the jazz world). This all makes sense, but doing it will make the difference!
The 2-5-1 progression contains about 90% of everything you need to play tunes from the classic American songbook. It’s a minor 7th, a dominant 7th, and a major 7th. The rest is just color.
95%+ of jazz songs have 2-5s in them…it’s the most common turnaround. If you can identify and be able to improvise through this chord phrase, you’ll be able to effectively play through the transitions of MANY songs

You're welcome!
This is interesting, i like how well you explain it but im trying to figure out what is it good for in a song
95%+ of jazz songs have 2-5s in them…it’s the most common turnaround. If you can identify and be able to improvise through this chord phrase, you’ll be able to effectively play through the transitions of MANY songs
