### 5/5 — As Jazz Pianist I find it invaluable

*2022-03-31, version 5.2.2*

As a Jazz pianist, I have found this app invaluable for helping me to voice lead sheets. As an educator, it would be great if there were a few more simpler chord options. In particular 7 instead of 13 and 9 (for my beginner jazz students). And for my more advanced students,  the ability to have the 4 alterations as well would be great.
