“Beautiful Love“ is one of the classic jazz standards.. it’s a dark and brooding ballad that focuses on the two ii-V-i progressions found within a single key centre.
A fairly short one to pick up and learn over a weekend and get in your repertoire. Improvising over these changes is also a lot of fun, and there’ll be a lead study lesson for this just around the corner!
