Full Ear Training Lesson: Chords 6-, 4, 1, 5D

In this lesson I’ll show you the inner workings of one of the most popular chord progressions in modern music. Once you become familiar with the sensation of each chord, I think you’ll start to hear this progression every day in the music all around you.

We will also study the beautiful melodic connections between the chord notes. You’ll recognize many famous melodies that come from just the sounds we study in this lesson.
