I'll put all the parts here. I am going to redo all this and do it as a video. But I wanted to pass it on asap. I did this in less than 30 minutes. I just did it with a student and thought it's pretty cool so I'll pass it on.

You will see part one. All the rest of the parts are below.

Salina,

Fill in the chords, check out the accidentals. Tell me about what's going on here. (Patrick and help if you want)

And Play it well at our next lesson!

Each 251 has it's key signature. From that you should be able to figure out the chords. Remember they are all 251s.

Right in the chords. Study each note and voicing. Understand and write about what is happening with each chord, each progression etc.

Is the voicing rootless? What upper partials are there.

Finally put each one through all the keys. Watch how much you learn about 251s.

So I recommended he write down a bunch of chords with B (his note for the melody, trying to use chords with B as an upper partial as well as a third or fifth.

I figured I'd quickly try and bang out my own version. So here it is. gave myself a couple tries and about 10 minutes.
