In this Jazz Piano online course I will bring you from the level of a complete jazz beginner up to the level of an intermediate/advanced pianist. We will talk about both theory and applications, and cover concepts ranging from chords and scales, to diatonic harmony, voicings, substitutions, soloing, tensions, and much more.

In the ninth lesson we will look at chord substitutions; namely, the process of exchanging one chord for another which plays the same "role" (usually this refers to the functional harmonic role). We will group these substitutions into three groups: dominant, subdominant and tonic substitutions. We will cover such things as tritone substitutions, backdoor dominants, minor fourths and so on. In the last part of the video we will bring everything together and use a few different types of substitutions to reharmonize an existing (and fairly simple) chord progression.
