The two five one progression and it's modes are the jazz equivalent to the blues changes and scale in blues.
Most jazz standards changes feature at at least one 251, most of them have more (in different keys).
So, in order to be at home improvising on jazz tunes one should master this chord progression quite well.
In order to accomplish this I created lessons on the 2-5-1 progression. This first lesson gives a brief explanation of the concept and offers two ways (positions) to play the chords and modes on the guitar:

The second lesson walks through the 251 progression in 6 different keys:

Mp3 backing tracks are provided for both lessons
Have fun,
