FretBuzz Progressions

FretBuzz Progressions is an application for learning and practicing common jazz chord progressions on guitar.

It shows chord diagrams for ii V I, I vi ii V and Blues progressions.

Blues progressions cover basic blues with two fives and turnarounds and advances to Charle Parker's Blues for Alice.

The chords/diagrams listed start with basic chords/diagrams and then advance to chords/diagrams with extensions and alterations (when possible).

All chords/diagrams are connected with smooth voice leading.

The chord diagrams used are the common chord shapes used in jazz guitar;

- Shells

- Drop 3 Chords

- Drop 2 Chords

- Drop 2 & 4 and Drop 2 Chords.

The application can play the progression and it's variation you choose along with a metronome. You can set the speed of the metronome and follow along as the playing chord/diagram is highlighted.

You can tap on the chord name to hear its sound. Tapping on a chord note will play only that particular note.

You can adjust the size of the chord diagrams for your device.

There is also a left handed option in the settings.

You can think of this application as volume II of my FretBuzz Chords application.
