Jazz/Standard Turnarounds

A Turnaround is a series of chords that lead back to a repeated section of a song. Jazz/Standard Turnarounds are usually the last two bars of each eight bar section of a typical 32-bar AABA form song. These versatile progressions can double as Engings by adding an appropriate “I” chord (i.e., "I", "I6", "IM7", "IM9", "I7", "I6/9", and "I9"). Below you will find numerous examples of Jazz/Standard Turnarounds. Each chord is generally played for two beats. Although the Turnaround examples are shown in the Key of “E” to permit easier analysis, they can be transposed to any key. Below are examples of Jazz/Standard Turnarounds that begin with "E" ("I") chords.
