Practice your open voicings with this beautiful ballad "I Fall In Love Too Easily"
Open voicings (or "spread voicings") are the most complete voicings we use in jazz, not only to harmonize a melody, but even to comp behind a singer or soloist.
They consist of root - guide tones (3 & 7) - tensions - melody. Since we use both hands to play these open voicings, we have plenty of space to add extensions or to use alterations and reharmonizations. Notice we only play 2 notes in the LH (1 & 3 or 1 & 7)!
