ii Minor Chords for Jazz Piano in Ab Minor

Alright now we are going to do our first chord out of A flat major which is the 2 minor. So if you start on your A flat here you got 1,2, right there B flat 3,4,5,6,7 once. So we are going to start the scale we are going to make the 2 the root so now we have the 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1. Same pattern, same scale just know the B flat is the root it make it minor. The great thing about voicing for the minor chord is that there is not void scale in the scale so you can take clump notes out of the scale and it would all sound good. (playing piano) It really helps to get that scale under your fingers if you just go through it and start hitting notes out of it. (playing more piano)So that is your minor chord in the key of A flat B flat minor.
