Explore how to reharmonize a 2-5-1 using upper-structure triads with examples from 'My Funny Valentine'.
This lesson demonstrates practical upper-structure voicings and reharmonization strategies for the 2-5-1, using 'My Funny Valentine' as a working example. You’ll see how borrowing from the parallel minor and layering flat-7 major triads or major triads built on scale degrees creates distinctive colors.
