Finishing songs is a skill just like anything else. If you don’t practice it, you don’t get better at it. Every time you abandon one, you reinforce the habit.

From a Music Theory Gym a few weeks ago, this is another important bit of keyboard vocabulary.
This song example was taken from the wonderful Nina Simone, “I wish I knew how it would feel to be free“, featuring pianist Billy Taylor.

The Neapolitan 6th:1st inversion of a flat two cord, resolving to five, and then home in either major or minor. You don’t hear this often, but it’s always a surprise to learn that first one isn’t minor. New music theory class starts early in the coming year!
