SHELL VOICINGS – ALL Jazz Chords with only 8 SHAPES - CRYSTAL CLEAR!

Shell voicings are reduced version of complex extended chords like Cmaj7#5, D7b9 sus4, Galt, F7#5#9 and so on. With these shell voicing shapes – these simple reduced version of these complex chords – will make that you can play any Jazz standard or any complex chord progression in a very straightforward, yet very efficient way. How do we do that? Well… we will play only the most important notes of the chords. And those are the tonic, the 3rd and the 7th degree and we leave out any extension and altered 5th. I will show you in this video how that really works. With sell voicings we’ll create 8 simple chord shapes that can be used for all the complex chords you come across. Just eight 3-note shapes and you’re done. You can play every Jazz standard and every difficult piece of music, regarding chords and comping with these simple 3 note shapes. It’s almost too good to be true. Only it’s very real and…very convenient indeed! ---------------------------------------------------------------
