Demonstrates two contrasting left‑hand voicing approaches for Blue Bossa—standard/rootless voicings and upper‑structure voicings—with voice‑leading examples and substitutions.
This lesson walks through two complete sets of left‑hand voicings for Blue Bossa: a voice‑led set using closed and rootless voicings, and a more modern approach using upper‑structure triads and add9 structures. It explains how to apply voice‑leading rules, build rootless shapes, and pair chord‑scales with upper structures, plus how to adapt voicings over ii–V–I progressions. Includes guidance on arranging these voicings in ensemble contexts, practice suggestions, and a supplemental PDF with examples.
