FINALLY CRACKED! How (and why) to use the circle of fifths to learn every chord in ALL 12 keys…

Posted on 28 October 2009

Wow, what can I say…

I think I’ve started something here…

The last few weeks, I’ve been trying out a new format
by taking really good questions from students and not only
answering them personally, but sending them to our entire
mailing list.

This has resulted in a lot of love — and even MORE
questions from dedicated students all around the world. I’ve
received at least a good couple hundred questions that could
easily keep me busy sending responses like this for years…

But here’s one that made the top of the list. I think
you’ll really be helped by my reply to Tyler. It’s long but
packed with details. About 5 lessons in one.

PRINT THIS OUT because it really is *that* important.
