This
movement
from
subdominant
to
dominant
to
tonic
establishes
that
we
are
in
the
key
of
C.
In
jazz,
you
are
much
more
likely
to
hear:
Subdominant
Dominant
Tonic
iim7
V7
Imaj7
For
example,
in
the
key
of
C:
This
also
establishes
that
we
are
in
the
key
of
C.
Notice
that:
• The
subdominant
is
now
the
ii
(2)
chord
instead
of
the
IV
(four
chord).
• The
subdominant
is
now
a
minor
7
chord.
• The
dominant
is
a
dominant
7
chord.
• The
tonic
is
a
major
7
chord.

Guitarists
There
are
many
different
ways
to
play
a
ii-‐V-‐I
on
the
guitar.
First
we
will
find
some
ways
of
playing
each
of
the
chord
types
involved
in
this
progression:
major
7th,
dominant
7th
and
minor
7th.
Below
are
some
ways
to
play
these.
We’ll
start
with
the
Major
7th
chord:
On
the
E
string:
On
the
A
String:
Now
let’s
make
a
Dominant
7th
chord
on
the
same
root
note.
Notice
that
only
one
note
changes:
And
now
a
Minor
7th
chord.
Notice
again
that
only
one
note
changes:
Here’s
a
ii-‐V-‐I
using
some
of
these
shapes:

Here
are

Here
is

Pianists
There
are
many
different
ways
to
play
a
ii-‐V-‐I
on
the
piano.
Note
that:
• Not
every
chord
has
to
include
every
note
of
the
chord.
The
3rd
and
7th
are
most
important,
we
often
leave
out
the
root
and/or
5th.
• We
aim
for
‘voice-‐leading,’
meaning
that
the
notes
of
the
chords
move
small
distances
so
that
the
notes
flow
smoothly
into
each
other.
Here
are
some
‘vanilla’
ii-‐V-‐I’s:
Now
with
some
9ths
added:
Some
more
colourful
examples
(notice
the
perfect
4ths
in
the
right
hand!):
Try
to
come
up
with
your
own
ways
of
playing
ii-‐V-‐I!
Bassists
It
is
important
for
bassists
to
know
which
notes
are
in
each
chord.
We
can
play
these
as
arpeggios:
Major
7
Chords
Dominant
7
Chords
Minor
7
Chords
Now,
move
these
arpeggios
to
the
chords
below
to
play
a
ii-‐V-‐I
By
re-‐ordering
some
of
the
notes,
we
can
make
a
smoother
bass
line
that
doesn’t
jump
around
so
much:
Try
to
create
your
own!
