Dominant 7th Practice

Hi folks,

Newbie here. I truly love this site and have been using the Blues backgrounds with my online students. I'm now diving in to Jazz and would like to know if there is a Dominant 7th exercise that allows my to repeat a single dominant 7th chord. The one that I have downloaded only plays one measure at a time (although the changes are written for two measures).

Thanks.

Hi TW,
You can probably find something you can use in this thread.

However, it is super easy to make your own exercise chart.

Or use any existing song chart, LOOP just a group of bars you want to play over and over……

2-5-1 In Cmaj - AH

Since iReal pro can transpose to any key instantly, it's best to not state the key in the title. Just set your preferred key as the default key on the info screen when you make the chart.

If you list the composer name on the chart as ‘Exercise’ all your practice charts will be easy to find.

I think this is a very musical way of practicing minor II V I. I call it the Benny Golson circle because It happens a lot in his compositions.

Great job Trane freak . Great work , beginner, and intermediate exercise . Next step of course is to do this, without your written in guide tones.

You may find this guide tone video interesting https://youtube.com/watch?v=0jY3zoDpZfs&feature=shares

Another time challenge exercise…

Another time challenge exercise…
I was shocked that on the first pass I sped up! You ever have somebody kick off a tempo and the bass player just kicks in with his own tempo.? That’s what I did ��really a good exercise for locking in the actual counted off tempo.

So, of course you need to turn off the drums on all of these time challenge exercise. This one, however, you may want to start it with click on 2 and 4.this is only the A section of Cherokee. This kind of editing takes a little longer, so I didn’t do the bridge.

Did you know iRp can play any chart and automatically transpose to cycle (without stopping) through the circle of fifths (or fourths) or chromatically or any interval you specify by using the PRACTICE setting (graduation hat icon).
