Not only is "I Got Rhythm" one of the fundamental American classic songs, it is arguably one of the more important songs in the evolution of American jazz.

Bill teaches I Got Rhythm in 4 levels. In the first level, he introduces you to the basic chord changes and a simplified version of the melody. In the second level, he shows you the original syncopated melody as well as introducing some basic added tones. In the third level, Bill goes through a variety of more advanced added tones and chord substitutions that are often heard in "rhythm changes." Then in the fourth level, Bill introduces other techniques to embellish the song such as walking bass line, broken 1oths and closed position chords.
