A lead sheet is a bare-bones piece of music, and is how we often encounter written repertoire. Understanding how to start building an arrangement from a lead sheet is a satisfying and important skill set. We’ll use this tune as a vehicle to crack open a lead sheet, exploring concepts such as: moving eighth notes, anticipations, simple chords, rolls, and more. If you’re tired of being boxed in to the simple arrangement on the paper, join me!
