Part 3 - Harmonic Techniques to Create Moving Chord Progressions using Three Note Voicings
by Michael Pettersen (January 2004)
For the third lesson on moving chord progressions, I have notated "Sweet Lorraine", a 32 bar standard in C. As in the first and second lessons, all chords forms are on strings 6, 4, and 3; or strings 5, 4, and 3. Each of these chord forms can be found in the playing of Freddie Green.
Analyze "Sweet Lorraine" by referring to the seventeen chord progression techniques listed in the "I Got Rhythm" lesson.
