How is it possible to use different scales over the same chord, if a chord progression is in a particular key? I try to answer this question in this Jazz Piano Tutorial. I discuss the difference between playing in a key and playing from a key - a very important distinction. And I try explain why particular scales fit over particular chords. In essence you can play any scale over a chord, if that scale has the root, third and seventh of the chord in it. So for example, you can use any scale with a C, E and B in it over a C Major 7 chord.
