Original Question

Can someone please list some chord progressions that would make an excellent Christmas song?
Q. I'm looking for John Lennon's style but still recognizable as a Christmas song. Thanks.

A. Nope, composers and arrangers do that for a living, so unless you want to hire someone, that job is yours. (If you accept a progression from anyone, the piece you make will no longer be yours.)

If you do not yet have the trained ear, sit down at a piano, noodle around until you find something you like, and write it down. Then you have a basis to follow through.

I strongly advise you to have the lyrics first, as working lyrics after the fact of even just a chord progression is heinously difficult to pull off and have it sound good. (They may even help you 'find' the sound / harmony you want!)


Best regards.

Original Question

what can I do to begin to learn new jazz chords for piano?
Q. Is there a text book that teaches me new chords and how to and where to apply them?

Any techniques on learning new chords and applications for them such as passing ect............

A. Check out "How to Speed Read Piano Chord Symbols" and "How to Play from a Fake Book without Gettin' the Blues"

These books are helpful for learning voicings and smooth voice leading, and they simplify a lot of complex harmony.

Also, check out the free site: http://www.list-of-chords.com/ It has some chord progression diagrams where you can move the voicings around right on the web and hear how they sound -- very helpful and instructive.
