[G] [F]
[D] [E] [Am] [Db]
[C]
[Bbm] [C] Welcome back.
Okay, now we're ready to take a slightly more sophisticated approach to
the progression that we have been doing.
We had C for [F] two beats, F for [G] two, G for two,
[F] F for two.
The F in this progression served as sort of a passing chord.
It's a subdominant
chord, which means that the two most important chords [C] in this progression are actually the
and [G] the five.
That's really [C]
similar [G]
to what we were doing [C] before when we were going from
the fifth degree, [G]
where we anchored ourselves on [C] G.
We're here, [G] C to G, that is.
[C] One, two,
three, four.
[G]
[C] One
[G] [C] chord, [G] and a five chord.
Okay, so we're going to do that again.
So
now we're going to take that same progression and enhance it a bit.
The way I like to do
that is let's take the major chord [C] first.
We've got C major.
Now, the C major, since
this is the key of the song, of the progression, [A] belongs to the C major scale, which is all
the [C] white notes.
So what we're going to do is we're going to add the seventh of the [Em] scale,
B, [Gb] right here, [A] and the sixth.
[Em] So we're making montuno, using the basic rhythm that we've
been doing for this whole course, and enhancing the C, just to give it some movement.
So we
can go, we can start from the seventh.
The C chord filler notes are the same.
You've
got E and G, and you're just moving the outer note.
So you're going, if the bass is C, you're
going, [C]
as opposed to doing, now you can go.
You give it a slightly more jazzier feel.
Okay, so you can do that on every chord.
I mean, this applies to everything that we've
done.
You should be able to do everything that we've done in all keys.
Say we're on
A flat, here we are, [Ab] you're there.
You take the A flat scale, it's like this.
[Bbm] [Ab]
The seventh
degree is just one half [G] step below, [Ab] right here, the seventh.
And the filler notes, the
notes that were in between were [C] C and E [Ab] flat.
And you can play the A flat chord, not only
like the plain way, [G] but now you can play it with the [F] seventh and sixth movement.
[Ab] You can go.
[Eb]
[D] [E] [Am] [Db]
[C]
[Bbm] [C] Welcome back.
