FretBuzz Progressions
iOS Universel / Education
FretBuzz Progressions is an application for learning and practicing common jazz chord progressions on guitar.
It shows chord diagrams for ii V I, I vi ii V and Blues progressions.
Blues progressions cover basic blues with two fives and turnarounds and advances to Charle Parker's Blues for Alice.
The chords/diagrams listed start with basic chords/diagrams and then advance to chords/diagrams with extensions and alterations (when possible).
All chords/diagrams are connected with smooth voice leading.
The chord diagrams used are the common chord shapes used in jazz guitar;
- Shells
- Drop 3 Chords
- Drop 2 Chords
- Drop 2 & 4 and Drop 2 Chords.
The application can play the progression and it's variation you choose along with a metronome. You can set the speed of the metronome and follow along as the playing chord/diagram is highlighted.
You can tap on the chord name to hear its sound. Tapping on a chord note will play only that particular note.
You can adjust the size of the chord diagrams for your device.
There is also a left handed option in the settings.
You can think of this application as volume II of my "FretBuzz Chords" app.
