In this session, you’ll learn the traditional jazz standard “Sweet Georgia Brown,” which has a very common circle-of-fourths progression. Aaron starts by talking about the circle of fourths and shows you how to find the ii7 in  ii7–V7 progressions, which occur throughout the second version of the chord chart. Then he walks you through the two versions of chord voicings for “Sweet Georgia Brown.”
