Gershwin’s 1931 classic “I Got Rhythm”, has become one of the most important chord progressions in the history of jazz, with dozens of contrafact’s (new tunes written over that song’s chord changes), so much so that we call the entire family of tunes – rhythm changes. In this lesson we unpack the original chord progression and break it down section by section, exploring common harmonic variations and some tips and tricks for navigating this harmonic treasure trove!
