A focused beginner workout for C minor that teaches minor scales, voicings, voice-leading and practical jazz harmony through short, repeatable drills.
This lesson is a structured, practice-oriented routine that walks you through the compound minor system in C minor: natural, harmonic and melodic minor, diatonic seventh chords, drop-voicings, guide-tone movement and circle-of-fifths progressions. Section one emphasizes voicing mechanics (drop root, drop 2/4 spread voicings, left-hand fifths and right-hand clusters) and smooth voice leading; section two applies those tools to common jazz devices like minor ii–V–I variations, rootless voicings, line clichés on the seventh and a minor-blues variant. Each drill is designed to be efficient—under five minutes per key once learned—while helping you internalize how minor tonic colors (m6, m(maj7), m7) function in context.
