A SMALL DAILY RITUAL
Ten minutes.
One clear intention.
You don’t have to learn everything today. Just leave with one thing you can hear a little better.
Make time for music ↗- 01
Listen before you play.
Two minutes. Sing the roots and hear where the chords want to go.
- 02
Choose fewer notes.
Four minutes. Connect thirds and sevenths. Let the rhythm do some work.
- 03
Make a phrase your own.
Four minutes. Repeat an idea, change its ending, then try it in another key.

BEFORE YOUR FIRST SESSION
A few good questions.
Do I need to read sheet music?
No. The tools show note names and playable keyboard or fretboard diagrams. Start with one note at a time and use the audio to connect what you see with what you hear.
Where should a complete beginner start?
Read the introduction to the ii–V–I, then open the C major trainer. Listen to the chords first, and play only the roots before adding more notes.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. The lessons and practice tools work in a modern mobile browser. Tap Play to start audio, and turn your phone sideways when you want more space for the instrument diagrams.
Are these recordings or synthesized instruments?
The practice audio is synthesized in your browser. It helps you hear notes and harmony; listening to recordings and playing with other musicians remain valuable parts of learning jazz.
