We look at iconic jazz standard recordings and study the chord progressions, reharmonization techniques and stylistic decisions taken by the masters. In this video we take a look at Erroll Garner playing Misty in his 1955 album Erroll Garner Plays Misty.

By the end of the video you will have the exact progression played by Erroll Garner in this iconic recording and a whole set of music tools and harmonic techniques you can apply to any song.
