Progressions That Feel In Key

Writing chord progressions is (in my opinion) at the core of understanding music theory, making sense of ear training, and learning to write music. In this lesson, I talk about how the simple set of 7 chords (I ii iii IV V vi vii°) can sometimes lead you to astray and make your audience think you're NOT in the key you intended to be. I experiment with how to make a chord progression "feel" like it's in the right key

This lesson will hopefully give you a better understanding of and more familiarity with the Major Key. You'll also get a better sense of how to write chord progressions that pull the listener to the I chord, and you'll have a nice writing method where you start with a basic progression and then substitute chords to make it more interesting.
