- Jazz harmony vs traditional, etc.

* The way tonal harmony tends to move:

- Tritone subs!
- Modulations! In exercise or not, All The Things
- Chromaticism and the mystery within the chords

* How to actually practice this!
- Key by key, week by week, month by month

- Melody guiding the harmonic movement, etc.

???? WRITES JULIAN:
"Many of my students have expressed frustration by feeling limited with their options when playing jazz standards or traditional songs.

They hear the greats pull up material from a seemingly bottomless well, but find themselves playing the same thing repeatedly.

I've been struck by the change in their playing and outlook after practicing some of these techniques.

I believe it to be an effective approach to broadening your harmonic and melodic horizons by demystifying some of the most foundational aspects of the Western harmonic vernacular."
