What's the difference between Classical music, Rock and Pop, and Jazz?   Well, that's probably a question with an endless answer! But one of the most significant differences is in the harmony: what chords are used, and how do the progressions work.   In this clip from Tony Parlapiano's Musical U masterclass, he explains and demonstrates each, in a simple and memorable way.   Subscribe For Future Episodes!
