This also applies to minor keys (also all modes).
The next examples are with C Harmonic Minor.Normal Progression:
Find common tone and move other voices scale wise.
First examples will all be in C harmonic minor (4 note chords) using Normal Progressions:
Ascending chord progressions. (notes are written lowest tone on left to highest tone on right)
These chords are all created from the C Harmonic Minor Scale: C, D, Eb, F, G, Ab, B, C.
C, Eb, G, B (C minor major seventh)
C, F, Ab, Eb (F minor seventh - second inversion)
D, G, B, F (G dominant seventh - second inversion)
Eb, B, C, G (C minor major seventh - first inversion)
imaj7, iv7, V7, imaj7 progression.
Eb, B, G, C (C minor major seventh - first inversion)

Now transpose these to each position (register) of your instrument, then to all 15 keys.
