Description

Practice your open voicings with this beautiful ballad "Moonlight In Vermont"

Open voicings (or "spread voicings") are the most complete voicings we use in jazz, not only to harmonize a melody, but even to comp behind a singer or soloist.
They consist of root - guide tones (3 & 7) - tensions - melody. Since we use both hands to play these open voicings, we have plenty of space to add extensions or to use alterations and reharmonizations. Notice we only play 2 notes in the LH (1 & 3 or 1 & 7)!
