Jazz Piano Intro Patterns 3
Two practical jazz piano introductions in F major, explained with notation.
No.5|Slash Chords and Diminished Passing Chords
Starting from F, the bass moves through F7/A, B♭ and B diminished toward C6. The closing single-note cue makes the entrance clear for the soloist.

No.6|Repeated Rhythm and Chromatic Approach
F6–F♯dim7–Gm7–C7 creates a turnaround-like motion. Repeated chord rhythms communicate the form, while a chromatic line leads into the final cue.
