This week's objective is voicings for minor ii-Vs. In Day 1, we're dealing with closed voicings. Most of these contain the basic chord tones. Practice them and memorize them before moving to the next lesson.

第一個練習（第一小節到第八小節），其實沒有太大的差別，就是加了個A dim7
第二個練習（第九小節到第十六小節），你可以看到，全部是半音階下行。
只要記得開始的音要落在從降五音開始，一路下行。
