In this video we take a deep dive into all of the chords for the classic jazz standard “Autumn Leaves”. We look at all of the chords, making sure we understand each one and the relationship they have with each other. Wow, that sounds heavy! But it isn’t, its beautiful and fun and I carefully and clearly explain not only the chords but exactly how I’m making a (hopefully) lovely solo over the entire tune. I’m aiming to explain things in a way that everyone gets so please do let me know what you think.

It would probably help you if you understand major 251’s which you can find here: https://youtu.be/wUurmaEQU5k

And minor 251’s which you can find here: https://youtu.be/IweGqQ-DAao

And knowing about the incredibly beautiful harmonic minor scale will help too: https://youtu.be/PLT77hA4DtI
