Ep123 What is a Circle Progression? (Using the Circle of 5ths and 4ths)

Update: 2022-05-19

Description

What’s a circle chord progression? I discuss this composition technique in my latest podcast episode and explain how it relates to the Circle of Fifths used in music. I give you a few examples based on familiar songs and demonstrate how playing the 5th cycle backward creates the circle of 4ths.
