Not exactly a theory question, but for those of us working through practicing spread voicings (beginner level of root in the left, melody on top, and finding 3 and 7 in between), it seems the advice is that the best way to get proficient at it is just to work through tons of songs slowly and steadily.
Aside from the songs covered in the Intro to Lead Sheets and Jazz Fundamentals courses, do you have recommendations of songs that are particularly ideal for gaining proficiency with this (maybe songs that don’t throw too many curve balls, etc)?
This is a slow process but I feel is an important key so some particularly good songs would be helpful.
Thank you in advance.
