7 Iconic Chord Progressions Excerpt: 'Autumn Leaves' (The Real Book)

Описание: Explore my personal ranking of the 7 most iconic chord progressions in 20th-century popular music. This short video features "Autumn Leaves", written by Joseph Kosma in 1945 and originally published under the title "Les Feuilles Mortes".
Here, I present the second verse of the piece in my own arrangement, which differs harmonically from the standard Real Book version only in the final cadence. Specifically, I introduce an appoggiatura on the D# diminished chord while the bass remains on the tonic note (E).
