Challenging Changes (At least to me)

Changes Drill by Unknown Composer

I wrote out this drill in all 12 keys and I found that my technique got better even though I can't say that I have mastered it. It came from one of my Jazz instruction books. I had a little problem setting up the bars of music. Something looks off, but it plays. Any feedback would be welcome.
Thanks, Steve

Steve, you have empty bars at the end of the first two systems, so they get ignored by the player, but you could delete the beats in them and your sequence will fit in two systems.
BTW, you have not set 4/4 but that is ok. We default the player to assume 4/4 in absence of any time sig at the beginning, but you might want to put it in.
Best wishes for mastering this one!
 
Hi Stephen.
I "corrected" the chart as per dflat's indications, and changed the key of the piece (Edit->Info->Key, choose and Set).
If you set the key of the charts correctly, their transposition won't be confusing...
Happy playing!
