Does anyone have a cheat sheet for interpreting European chord symbols found in jazz?
(Actually a couple I've seen might not even be known to me in American symbols)
I'm trying to interpret some of the symbols from the "Anthologie des Grilles de Jazz".
-- and the ones I'm talking about are not covered in the explanatory pages in the front.
