    I finally got around to memorizing my circle of 4ths and 5ths. Chord tones was my next challenge. Thank you. Now I can move forward with improvisation. You are definitely a no nonsense teacher and for me very effective. Another coffee towards your new computer.

    I know all since long long time. But I had to explain to my child. I said: take 1 over 2. More or less same thing. But yes that should work for beginers. I think the more difficult is to know alterations. Not the same salad 😂

    I used to teach theory to kids in a summer jazz camp for a few years, and I used the same techniques that you use here, i.e. the cycle of 3rds. In fact, I have found that spelling triads and 7th chords is easier for them then learning to spell specific intervals. Knowing elementary music theory at the speed of light is critical for tonal improvisation.

    Great method for learning the chord tones. If you marry it up with the circle of fifths, you are some way toward learning the sharps and flats, too. Instead of learning by rote!
