CadenzaProgressions
The progressions pianists play most, in all twelve keys.
72 pages: the jazz ii–V–I in major and minor with shell and rootless voicings, and the four pop progressions with voicings that barely move. Spelled the way the key spells them, and every chord links to its own page in the chord library.
