Hi everyone,

Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live, City Of Stars - La La Land's Soundtrack.

City Of Stars is an Oscar winning original song from the 2016 movie La La Land. It is played in a couple different
ways in the movie, most based on a simple arpeggio figure played on the piano.

This lesson includes a few different takes on it, including Campfire versions in two different keys, a Harmony
Challenge where you can figure out the progression from a chart done with numeric symbols, ways of transcribing
the piano part to the guitar, and a solo guitar arrangement.

We get started with just the Harmony Challenge and Campfire Versions with the more elaborate sections following
soon, assuming there is some interest…

Enjoy this level 5 lesson!

Well I'm sure the lesson will be a big hit, and I'm sure glad your back.



Welcome home!

Neil, so good to see you back!
And what a lovely choice of song. I didn't know it, haven't seen the movie (yet) but it's on my list of things to do now.

Very touchy and honest song... love it B)

I'm very happy to see you back here as well! :cheer: And even with a very recent song! :laugh:

This is so cool! :woohoo:

We have yet to see the film but it's on the list (and now so is this song). Thanks!

Oh, and welcome back, sir! B)

Ditto here, Neil. It's great to see you on the site again. I hope I can find time to try this lesson. There are too many things here to work on!!!

Neil

Thanks
Good to see you back.

From other lessons on TG......................
I think of the Secondary Dominant as borrowed from the relative minor key based on step vi of the scale.

In the Key of G the relative minor ( step vi ) is Em - Step V of Em being the Secondary Dominant Bm ( B7 )

In the Key of D the relative minor (step vi ) is Bm - Step V of Bm being the Secondary Dominant F#m ( F#7 )

From that then chord iv of the Key of Bm would be the Secondary Sub Dominant Em.

The term Chord of Chord where does that originate?

I like this lesson.

Would you consider adding an instrumental lesson and GP6 tab file too ?
