In this lesson, you’ll learn some cycles of chords that can be used as intros, endings, and turnarounds between sections of a song. Matt starts with the common iii–Vi–ii–V progression, explaining the basic progression and giving you a few examples of iii–Vi–ii–V turnarounds in the keys of F and Eb. Next he shows you the common I–I7–IV–iv turnaround often used as an ending by people like Eddie Lang and Nick Lucas. Then he goes on to cover turnarounds with a diminished chord substituted for the VI, both a diminished chord built on the root and one a half step above the root. Finally, he shows you how, once you’ve learned a number of turnarounds, you can use them to play solos on “rhythm changes” (the chords to “I Got a Rhythm”), a progression that is used for many songs.
