This week we work our way through my chord melody of this stunning Django ballad, often also known as "Django's Castle". We apply some essential chord-based Django-isms and learn how to play with the spaces a slow tempo piece like this allows.
We'll be talking about some important chord-types; sixes, nines and 6/9's, as well as dominant 13b9 chords!.. all the good stuff that'll sweeten your playing that much more 👌🏻
Lesson materials will include a sheet of these voicings to study for homework, as well as the chord melody itself of course!

As always, stick around til the end for gear talk and recommended listening!
