Learn seven practical reharmonization techniques applied to a Jingle Bells lead sheet to make simple progressions sound more interesting.
This lesson walks through seven reharm techniques—including secondary dominants, ii minor interpolations, intra-region substitutions, tritone substitutions, line clichés, gospel/blues paths, and flat‑2 major7/modal interchange—using a Latin‑style piano arrangement of Jingle Bells as a running example. Each technique is demonstrated in specific measures so you can see how to apply them to any lead sheet. The package includes an annotated score highlighting every change and the musical rationale behind it. Ideal for pianists and arrangers who want practical, example‑driven tools to reharmonize simple songs.
