Every seventh and ninth chord from one idea: keep the root in the left hand, go up a major or minor third, and play a triad or a seventh chord on top. Piano lesson with Jason Zac of Nathaniel School of Music. Major 7th = a minor triad a major third up (B minor over G). Dominant 7th = a diminished triad a major third up β and the whole blues (G7, C7, D7). Minor 7th = a major triad a minor third up. Then minor-major 7th, augmented, half-diminished and diminished. Ninths: a seventh chord a third up (B minor 7 over G = Gmaj9, Bβmaj7 over G = Gm9). Dominant colours: G9, G7β9, G7β―9. Beyond thirds: G6/9 and G13 from fourths. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 πΉ Everything for Life Bundle β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com βΆοΈ Related lessons Use SIMPLE Triads to Play COMPLEX Piano Chords: Jazz Extensions β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/sd7i44NVY3c Use SIMPLE Triads to Play COMPLEX Piano Chords: 7th Chords β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/1G6uZ0QRKN0 How to Play 9, 11 and 13 Chords on Piano β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/cX3wMi2jIA0 Quartal Voicings on Piano β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/S-_VtUP-Frc π https://nathanielschool.com π Free tutorials library β‘οΈ https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com β±οΈ Chapters 00:00 Opening performance 02:09 Major 7th 06:07 Dominant 7th 07:17 The blues ecosystem 09:21 Minor 7th 11:10 Minor-major 7th and augmented 11:51 Half-diminished and diminished 13:16 Ninths 14:23 Minor 9 and minor 11 15:24 Dominant colours 16:30 Beyond thirds - 4ths 18:09 The recipe π° PayPal β‘οΈ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal πΈ Instagram β‘οΈ https://instagram.com/jasonzac π¬ WhatsApp β‘οΈ +91 77604 56847 βοΈ music@nathanielschool.com #PianoLessons #PianoTutorial #MusicTheory #JazzPiano
Learn Dolly Parton's Here You Come Again on piano β the intro riff, the bass line, every chord, and both key changes, from F# to G to Ab. This sounds like a simple pop song. It isn't. Most of the chords are sevenths, ninths and elevenths, and the whole song goes up a semitone β twice. So if you want to learn 2-5-1 progressions, slash chords and modulation from one song, this is a good one. We start with the intro riff. Your right hand holds an F# major chord and the thumb walks down β F#, F, Eb. Underneath, the left hand plays octaves: F#, Ab, Bb, B. The Ab isn't a chord. It's just the step that gets you to the Bb. The verse uses the same chords without the passing notes, then moves to Ebm7 and Abm7 β with the 7th in the bass β and two climbs over C#. The chorus is a 2-5-1 in A: Bm7, D/E, Amaj7, then G/A, the gospel 11th. Look at Bm7 and D/E. Your right hand doesn't move a single finger. Only the bass steps from B to E. That's the slash-chord rule β what's on the left of the slash goes in your right hand, the note on the right goes in your left. So Bm7 is really just D major over B. Then the song goes up to G, and up again to Ab for the outro. Nothing new to learn β the same shapes, a semitone higher. The one thing to watch: in G, the chorus starts on C minor instead of B minor. And if the licks aren't coming yet, just play through the chords. Here You Come Again was written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, and recorded by Dolly Parton in 1977. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 πΉ Everything for Life Bundle β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com πΊ RELATED LESSONS How to Play Slash Chords With Purpose on Piano (5 Pro Ways) β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/4LtOItbMiW0 Slash Chords vs Inversions on Piano β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/UhO-cWQLC-k Use SIMPLE Triads to Play COMPLEX Piano Chords: 7th Chords (Part 1) β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/1G6uZ0QRKN0 The 2-5-1 Jazz Piano Chord Progression Explained β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/SAOjr5ejxbs How to Read Chord Charts Like a Pro Musician β‘οΈ https://youtu.be/4qHUtgJ7XoE π https://nathanielschool.com π All 1000+ free lessons β‘οΈ https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com β± CHAPTERS 00:00 - Here You Come Again β performance 00:52 - Why this song: Dolly Partonβs scale changes 02:43 - F# major: six sharps, and one is E# 02:56 - The intro chord: F#, F#maj7/Bb, Bmaj9 03:35 - The intro in three levels 04:56 - Octaves: hold the hand like a divider 05:28 - The bass lick: C#, Eb, Ab, Eb, F# 06:32 - The whole intro, slowly 07:11 - The verse 07:43 - Ebm7, Abm7 and the lick 08:11 - B over C# and the first climb 09:08 - Verse 2 and the second climb 10:04 - The chorus: a 2-5-1 into A 11:14 - Into E major: slash chords galore 11:54 - F#7, A over B, and the whole chorus 12:34 - Up to G: the guitar part 13:38 - Em7, Am7 and C over D 14:03 - The guitar solo on piano 14:58 - The chorus in G 15:47 - C over Bb into Ab: the outro 16:54 - Wrap-up π Support these free lessons (PayPal) β‘οΈ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal πΈ Instagram β‘οΈ https://instagram.com/jasonzac π¬ WhatsApp β‘οΈ +91 77604 56847 Β· https://wa.me/917760456847 π§ music@nathanielschool.com #PianoLessons #PianoTutorial #MusicTheory #DollyParton
Tritone substitution explained on the piano: one two-note shell voicing plays two dominant seventh chords. Keep Fβ― and C in your right hand, move only the bass from D to Aβ, and D7 becomes Aβ7 β the jazz chord substitution behind countless iiβVβI progressions. In this lesson you start with a iiβVβI in C and hear what happens when Dβ7 takes the place of G7. Then you build the shell voicing on D7 β the root and 5th in the left hand, the 3rd and β7 in the right β and see why those two notes are a tritone apart, whichever way round you play them. That is the whole trick: keep the same shell, change the bass, and the 3rd and β7 simply swap jobs. You practise it with a Charleston rhythm (then displaced), learn why it works for dominant 7th chords, and walk through all six shapes that cover the twelve dominants β with a tip for bass players on using the tritone as an ornament. To finish, you play the iiβVβI in G with Aβ7 in place of D7. πΉ Practise the tritone sub free in the Jazz Harmony Lab: https://jazz.nathanielschool.com/#tritone-sub π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 πΉ Everything for Life Bundle β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com βΆ Related lessons β’ Shell Voicings on Piano: Why C7 and F#7 Are the Same Two Keys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxnZBXL-1PA β’ Jazz Piano Chords: The Voicing Exercise That Teaches Every 7th Chord and Its Tritone Sub: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHLV3iA-56s β’ Reharmonize Hallelujah on Piano: Secondary Dominants & Tritone Subs (Part 3): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLWdZDcQugs β’ Beyond VβI: 8 Piano Cadences That Change How Music Ends: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9Zdkdxd_HY β’ Free practice apps: https://apps.nathanielschool.com π https://nathanielschool.com π All 1000+ lessons β‘οΈ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com β± CHAPTERS 00:00 - What is tritone substitution?

Learn how to play blues piano with just two notes in your right hand β shell voicings, the Charleston rhythm and both blues scales over a 12-bar blues in E, with Jason Zac of Nathaniel School of Music. πΉ A dominant seventh chord has four notes, and you only need two of them. Keep the third and the flat seventh β the two notes that make it a dominant β and throw the root and the fifth away. Your left hand covers the root anyway, and as Jason puts it, the fifth "isn't adding that much unique harmonic flavour" in the right hand, so give it to the left and it widens the whole thing out. That pair is a shell voicing, and it is what blues and jazz pianists have always actually played. We start on C7 β E and B flat β and then take it to E for the rest of the lesson. E7 is D and G sharp. A7 is C sharp and G. B7 is D sharp and A. Every one of those is a tritone, and here is the part nobody tells you: a tritone is its own inversion. Turn a perfect fourth upside down and you get a fifth; turn a major third upside down and you get a minor sixth; turn a tritone upside down and you get another tritone. That is why 3ββ7 and β7β3 are the same shape, and why your hand barely moves all the way round a blues. Then the rhythm. The Charleston is two hits, swung, and there is a displaced version that starts late and lands on the three. Combine them β Jason's own preference is the displaced one first, then the normal one, which is everywhere in rock and roll. Left hand keeps a steady root and fifth underneath. And the gap the Charleston leaves is not empty space: it is where your solo goes. For the solo, two scales, and both are simpler than they sound. The major blues is just the major pentatonic with a flat third added. The minor blues is the minor pentatonic with the blue note. Then three licks: E B D E, the longer B D B B flat A G that fits over B7, A7 and E7 without changing a note, and the AβB flatβB turnaround β the four, the tritone and the five β that sends you round again. Finish with what Jason calls "some masala": slide the whole tritone voicing down chromatically. Do that from B7 and you land on E7, then A7 β because the three chords of an E blues sit on three touching pairs of keys. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 πΉ Everything for Life Bundle β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com βΆοΈ RELATED LESSONS One Left Hand Pattern.

The third and the seventh are all you need. In this jazz piano tutorial we build the shell voicing for a dominant 7th chord, discover that those two notes are a tritone β so the same two keys give you TWO chords β and take the whole thing round the circle of fifths with the Charleston rhythm. Most of us learn chords the regular way β all four notes, every inversion. Here we do the opposite. A shell is a smaller set of notes: you keep the ones that matter and leave the rest out. For a dominant 7th that is the 3rd and the flat 7th. The bass player has the root, and the fifth does nothing. C7 is C E G Bb. Drop the C and the G and you are left with E and Bb β and those two notes are a tritone, the one interval that turns into itself when you flip it. So the same two keys are also the 3rd and the flat 7th of F#7. Twelve dominant 7th chords collapse into six tritone pairs, and we practise them as pairs, counter-clockwise round the circle of fifths, with the two shells 3βb7 and b7β3 sliding down chromatically while the left hand takes the roots. Then the groove. Once the shell is in your hand the tensions are one step away β b9, 9, #9, even a #5 β and you can play licks over it (you will hear where I stole one from). We put the Charleston rhythm on the shell, then the displaced Charleston, then both at once, and finish with a hand-independence ladder: the left hand holds the Charleston while the right climbs from semibreves to minims to crotchets to the 2 and the 4 β plus the cascade, and the snaps and claps that take your hands off the keys and teach you to come back in. Get your keyboard out and play along.

Shell voicings are the two notes that actually describe a chord β the 3rd and the 7th β and in this jazz piano tutorial we run them through one long 2-5-1 chord progression until every 7th chord type and its tritone substitute is under your hands. The right hand plays two notes and nothing else. The left hand takes the root and the fifth. That split is how most working pianists actually voice a 7th chord, and it leaves your right hand free to improvise. The progression is deliberately long: Am7, D7, Gmaj7, Cmaj7, F#m7b5, B7, Em7, E7 β a major 2-5-1 running straight into the relative minor's 2-5-1, then a secondary dominant to send you round again. Every chord falls a fifth, so one finger stays put and the other steps down a semitone or a tone. Play it twice and you will have played both arrangements of all eight chords β the complete shell vocabulary of the key β because the hand keeps descending into the other shape by itself. Then we add the things that make it music: singing the roots, the chord names and the shells; five rhythms including the Charleston and its displaced cousin; and tritone substitution, where the same right-hand shape serves two different dominants because the 7th of one is the 3rd of the other. π STUDY GUIDE + PRACTICE APP The Companion has the whole exercise notated, the crown-note table, the five rhythm grids and a practice log for all twelve keys. The practice app plays it back at any tempo with a metronome, in every key, with the regular dominants or the tritone substitutions. πΉ LEARN WITH US Live online lessons, Bangalore centres and the Everything For Life bundle: https://nathanielschool.com Piano, guitar or vocals, any level β message us on WhatsApp and our course advisor will get back to you: https://wa.me/917760456847 π FREE PRACTICE TOOLS The Jazz Harmony Lab β major and minor iiβVβI, dominant cycles and altered voicings, free in the browser: https://jazz.nathanielschool.com Master Key β the diminished seventh laboratory, for dominant 7ths and tritone substitution: https://masterkey.nathanielschool.com Groove Metronome β for the Charleston and the five rhythms in this lesson: https://metronome.nathanielschool.com 25+ free browser tools for rhythm, chords, inversions, notation and ear training: https://apps.nathanielschool.com β± CHAPTERS 00:00 Performance 00:10 The Eight-Chord Practice Progression 00:56 G Major and E Minor Key Signature 02:44 Right-Hand Shells and Left-Hand Support 04:17 Building an Am7 Open Voicing 04:38 Building a D7 Open Voicing 05:58 Connecting Am7 to D7 06:20 Circle-of-Fifths Voice Leading 06:50 Major iiβVβI: Am7βD7βGmaj7 09:08 Minor iiβVβi in E Minor 09:34 Lap 2: Switching to 7β3 Shapes 10:10 E7 as a Secondary Dominant 11:02 Lap 1: Descending 3β7 Shapes 11:39 Singing Chord Names and Chord Tones 12:39 Singing the Right-Hand Shells 13:03 Singing the Chord Roots π§ 13:42 Writing and Visualising Inversions 14:09 One-Finger Common-Tone Exercise 15:49 Rhythm 1: Blocks and Alternating Fifths 16:07 Rhythm 2: Cascading the Chord Tones 17:06 Rhythm 3: Salsa-Like Syncopation 18:46 Charleston Rhythm Pattern 19:03 Swinging the Shell Voicings 20:17 Broken-Chord Ensemble Rhythm 21:56 Tritone Substitution Explained 24:50 Final Practice Plan π SUPPORT THESE FREE LESSONS PayPal: https://paypal.me/jasonzac?locale.x=en_GB&country.x=IN UPI: jasonzac-1@okhdfcbank (Jason Zac) π© TALK TO US WhatsApp: https://wa.me/917760456847 Instagram: https://instagram.com/jasonzac Β· https://instagram.com/nathanielschool #ShellVoicings #TritoneSubstitution #JazzPiano
Part 4 of our E7 piano workout series! Explore pyramid sets with accent groupings and the challenging 'crunch' exercise in contrary motion. πΉ πΉ Take one chord and build ten gym-style piano workouts around it. In this practical lesson we use a single E7 (dominant seventh) chord and turn it into a full technique session that transfers to any chord you like. First we break down the E7 shape β root, major third, fifth and flat seventh β with sensible fingering for both hands and all four positions: root, first, second and third inversion. Then we run the ten drills: the inversion ladder, the siren, piano jumping jacks, the horn throw, the dead hang, the speed bag, the rope climb, the pyramid set, the crunch and a cool-down stretch. Along the way you'll practise arpeggios against block chords, alternating two-note patterns, tritone swaps between the third and flat seventh, finger-by-finger lifts, speed work with a bouncing wrist, hand-crossing and accent groupings in twos, threes, fives and sevens. This is for pianists who can build chords but want them to feel musical and coordinated. Get your piano out, start slow and try every workout on other chords around the circle of fifths β then tell us your favourite gesture for the horn throw in the comments. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) - https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ π‘ Visit our Channel for more Tutorials & Performances - https://geni.us/NathanielYouTube ============================= βΆοΈ Related Videos & Playlists π Improvise over ONE chord - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9oizLJPiwwH_gvSH-IFu_V π Making Chord Practice FUN with Circle of Fifths - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-D6G1jDe18TFflopjjnxRG ποΈ Chord Voicing & Inversions - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC π Arpeggios - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-BCpTe-KKSdiKlAFMvYNsH πΆ Hand Independence - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-On4vodpAoZqTlWDCS5jv7 ============================= π Learn Music With Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac: https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) categorised by skill level, topic & genre all in one place: https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com π° Donate on PayPal: https://geni.us/DonatePayPal π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦ Follow me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes: music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music: https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #PianoLessons #PianoTutorial #MusicTheory #PianoChords #ChordInversions #PianoPractice

This is for pianists who can build chords but want them to feel musical and coordinated.

Learn how to harmonize any Melakarta raga on piano with Jason Zac of Nathaniel School of Music β turn 72 ragas into playable chords. π The app in this video β Melakarta Sphere, all 72 ragas in 3D, free, no signup: https://melakarta.nathanielschool.com Ever wondered how to harmonize a raga on piano? This lesson shows how the 72 Melakarta ragas are built and how to turn each one into playable chords. We walk through the logic behind the system: Sa and Pa stay fixed, the perfect fifth is always kept, and you choose from three Re, three Ga, two Ma β Shuddha Madhyama (the perfect fourth) and Prati Madhyama (the augmented/sharp fourth) β three Dha and three Ni. That simple maths gives every heptatonic scale under the sun. You'll see the twelve chakras (Indu, Netra, Agni, Veda, Bana, Rutu, Rishi, Vasu, Brahma, Disi, Rudra, Aditya) and hear how ragas map to Western modes: Kharaharapriya against Dorian and the Kafi thaat, Hanumatodi leaning Phrygian, and Mayamalavagowla (the 15th Melakarta), also called the double harmonic major. We also touch Harikambhoji (Mixolydian) and Charukesi (Mixolydian flat 6), then harmonize each raga into triads and seventh chords, including cluster and augmented shapes. This is for pianists who only know major and minor, and for Carnatic musicians curious about Western harmony. Play along, pick a raga, build its chords, and tell us your favourite in the comments. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) - https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ π‘ Visit our Channel for more Tutorials & Performances - https://geni.us/NathanielYouTube ============================= βΆοΈ Related Videos & Playlists π Indian Music Theory - Carnatic Ragas - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-EsBVRojlfDQ078y6R438k π Indian Classical Music - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-uvkwcbt1C4RbIJ8t1n3vm ποΈ The Major Scale Understood with ALL Intervals - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-E6rHuGKoYQk_8-jOw3_Bh π Minor Scales - Theory, Exercises & Compositions - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT_8KkjOUBofqzyhbgGkROE- πΆ Cadences & Chord Progressions - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT_sKjWd1c7K_S55cZ15jAKI ============================= π Learn Music With Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac: https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) categorised by skill level, topic & genre all in one place: https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com β³ Chapter markers 00:00 - What Does It Mean to Harmonize a Scale? πΉ 00:33 - The Melakarta Concept in One Idea 00:44 - Why Sa and Pa Stay Fixed 00:56 - Augmented Fourth vs Diminished Fifth 01:09 - Keeping the Perfect Fifth 01:33 - What Harmonize Really Means π΅ 01:40 - Harmonizing for Collaboration 02:12 - Scaling from Triads to Seventh Chords 02:50 - Kharaharapriya β Dorian & Kafi Thaat 03:03 - Melakarta as Heptatonic Thaats 03:52 - The Melakarta Sphere Mode π 04:11 - Selecting Hanumatodi 04:27 - Janya Ragas Explained 04:37 - Playing the Scale with Tanpura 05:01 - Arohana, Avarohana & Both 05:15 - Swing Feature for Western Players 05:28 - Hanumatodi Sounds Phrygian 05:57 - Reading the Interval Labels 07:07 - Brain Mode: The Mind Map 07:46 - The Chakra Navigator 07:58 - Twelve Chakras Named 08:11 - Grid & Mandala Modes 08:36 - Indu Chakra: Kanakangi 09:52 - Building Re from C 10:39 - Building Ga: Diminished to Major Third 11:25 - Netra Chakra: Very Phrygian 11:37 - Agni Chakra: Middle Eastern Colour 11:46 - Veda Chakra: All Things Minor 13:02 - Mayamalavagowla = Double Harmonic Major 13:26 - Bana Chakra: Where the Major Lives 13:37 - Harikambhoji (Mixolydian) & Charukesi 13:43 - Charukesi: Mixolydian Flat 6 πΆ 14:03 - Rutu Chakra 14:12 - The Prati Madhyama Hemisphere 14:38 - Rishi to Aditya Chakras 15:30 - Listen Mode: Sing a Raga 16:46 - Drills Mode for Swaras 16:54 - Stage Mode: Kritis & Sections 17:15 - Adjusting Tempo & Instruments 18:02 - Western Mode: Visualize the Scale 18:44 - Chords for Any Raga πΉ 20:05 - Inversions & Chord Colors 20:21 - Function: Tonic, Subdominant, Dominant 20:32 - Raga Fit & Janya Chord Options 22:08 - Tanpura, Talas & Practice Setup 23:30 - Wrapping Up: Harmonize Any Raga π° Donate on PayPal: https://geni.us/DonatePayPal π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦ Follow me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes: music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music: https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #MelakartaRagas #CarnaticMusic #PianoHarmony
Learn the diminished 7th chord on piano with Jason Zac of Nathaniel School of Music β resolutions, drills and the three-chord family. The diminished 7th chord is arguably the most powerful chord in music β one shape with endless resolutions. In this piano tutorial we break down its theory and turn it into two practical drills you can play today. We start with the formation: a diminished 7th is minor thirds stacked on top of each other, so every inversion is another diminished 7th. That means only three of them exist across all 12 keys β B/D/F/Ab are one family, and you move up chromatically for the rest. We also separate it from the minor seventh flat five (the ii chord in a 2-5-1 minor). Then we explore the leading-tone diminished cadence: B diminished 7th resolving to C major and to A minor (its relative minor), giving you many destinations from one source. You'll see how the same shape works as a rootless dominant, turning into E7β9, Bb7β9, G7β9 and Db7β9 β four chords from one diminished 7th. Drill one climbs up (dominant 7 β diminished 7 β major or minor); drill two climbs down (diminished 7 β dominant 7 β resolution). Ideal for pianists who know major and minor chords and want a versatile harmonic tool. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) - https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ π‘ Visit our Channel for more Tutorials & Performances - https://geni.us/NathanielYouTube ============================= βΆοΈ Related Videos & Playlists π Cadences & Chord Progressions - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT_sKjWd1c7K_S55cZ15jAKI π Mysterious Chord Connections - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9bd7fnB4zMsgobcFj52N31 ποΈ Jazz Lessons - Chords, Standards & Exercises - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ZCriHyNonJasffWWSCS_E π Chord Voicing & Inversions - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC πΆ My Favourite Chords of All Time - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT_BXqRCVauDnJH7oHhIv-z7 ============================= π Learn Music With Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac: https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) categorised by skill level, topic & genre all in one place: https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com β³ Chapter markers 00:00 - What Is the Most Powerful Chord? πΉ 00:15 - Meet the Diminished 7th Chord 00:33 - Diminished 7th vs Minor 7th Flat 5 00:42 - One Shape, Endless Resolutions 01:11 - The Goal: Two Practice Drills 01:46 - Formation: Stacking Minor Thirds 01:55 - B Diminished 7th Broken Down 02:17 - The B/D/F/Ab Family 02:34 - Building All 12 Chromatically 03:10 - Voicing in the Top Register 03:18 - E Becomes E7β9 πΆ 03:54 - Write It Down and Play Along 04:09 - A Supporting App for Practic 04:22 - Resolving BΒ°7 to C Major 05:10 - Resolving to the Relative Minor 05:30 - One Source, Many Destinations 05:42 - Cycling Through a Melody 06:25 - Leading Tone Diminished Cadence 06:33 - DΒ°7 = BΒ°7: Same Notes 06:59 - Resolving to Eb Major & C Minor 07:28 - G# Diminished 7th, Same Four Cousins 07:55 - It Spreads Like a Virus π₯ 08:06 - Drill 1: Climbing Up 08:25 - Starting from Bb7 08:34 - Move the Root Up a Half Step 09:05 - Trying It on C7 09:39 - Drill 2: Climbing Down 10:19 - CΒ°7 β B7 β E Major or Minor 10:40 - Chords Beyond the Scale 11:13 - Barry Harris & Diminished Scales 11:35 - Recap: Three Ways to Use It 12:19 - Requests & App Access π° Donate on PayPal: https://geni.us/DonatePayPal π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦ Follow me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes: music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music: https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #Diminished7th #DiminishedChords #PianoChords
Learn every 7th chord on piano with cascade, legato & staccato drills using a 2-5-1 progression in D major plus inversions. Learn every essential 7th chord on the piano in one focused workout! In this lesson, Jason Zac walks you through major 7, minor 7, dominant 7, minor 7 flat 5, and diminished 7 chords using the 2-5-1 progression in D major. You'll work through three powerful articulations β cascade, legato, and staccato β designed to bring real expression and control to your chord playing. These drills are essential for anyone who wants their voicings to sound smooth, intentional, and professional. We also break down all four inversions of each chord with a focus on smooth voice leading. You'll learn how to identify common tones, shift efficiently between chords, and stop making awkward jumps across the keyboard. This approach makes your chord changes effortless in both hands. The lesson then moves into the minor 2-5-1 progression in E harmonic minor, introducing the half-diminished chord, minor-major 7, and minor 6 voicings. These are essential colours for jazz, ballad, and modern piano playing. Whether you're an intermediate pianist learning jazz harmony, a self-taught player working on chord theory, or a student building your improvisation vocabulary β this is a workout you'll return to again and again. Get your keyboard out, practise along, and let us know in the comments what 7th chord topic we should cover next! π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) - https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ π‘ Visit our Channel for more Tutorials & Performances - https://geni.us/NathanielYouTube ============================= βΆοΈ Related Videos & Playlists π¬ Compose with Dorian Mode & Chord Progressions - https://youtu.be/NCFZhIyG0Y8 π― Build Chords from the Major Scale - https://youtu.be/7sv_vrg8XTg π Practice Scales with Major-Minor Chord Pairs - https://youtu.be/kak4hvdjsY0 π‘ Extend 7th Chords with Jazz Voicings - https://youtu.be/uuefI0cJcV4 π Jazz Lessons - Chords, Standards & Exercises - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ZCriHyNonJasffWWSCS_E ============================= π Learn Music With Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac: https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) categorised by skill level, topic & genre all in one place: https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com β³ Chapter markers 00:00 - Performance 00:44 - Welcome & Lesson Overview πΉ 01:10 - What Youβll Learn: Every 7th Chord Type 01:20 - Choosing the Key of D Major 01:31 - The 2-5-1 Progression Explained 01:45 - Adding the Secondary Diminished Chord 02:30 - Preview of the Minor 2-5-1 03:49 - The Three Articulations: Cascade, Legato, Staccato π 04:56 - Building E Minor 7th Chord π΅ 06:22 - Cascade Drill on E Minor 7 06:42 - Legato Drill on E Minor 7 07:11 - Staccato Drill on E Minor 7 08:03 - Building A Dominant 7th Chord 08:34 - Articulation Drills on A7 08:52 - Building D Major 7th Chord 09:12 - Articulation Drills on D Major 7 09:24 - Splitting Hands: Legato Left, Staccato Right 09:36 - The D# Diminished 7th Passing Chord 10:00 - All Diminished 7ths Are Inversions of Each Other 10:22 - Why Inversions Improve Voice Leading π 10:46 - Visualising Chord Shapes on the Keyboard 12:40 - αΉoot Position 15:36 - First Inversion: E Minor 7 to A7 to D Major 7 16:40 - Finding Common Tones Between Chords 19:21 - Second Inversion of the 2-5-1 20:57 - Third Inversion of the 2-5-1 22:28 - Quick Chord Changes Within the Bar 23:03 - Moving to the Minor 2-5-1 in E Harmonic Minor πΆ 24:28 - Building F# Minor 7 Flat 5 (Half Diminished) 25:06 - Building B Dominant 7 25:20 - Introducing E Minor Major 7 and E Minor 6 26:44 - Quick Change Between Minor 6 and Minor Major 7 26:58 - Inversions of the Minor 2-5-1 27:37 - Practice Tips & MIDI Visualizer App π° Donate on PayPal: https://geni.us/DonatePayPal π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦ Follow me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes: music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music: https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #SeventhChords #JazzPiano #PianoExercises
Master harmony with this incredibly simple trick: play just 1 third interval in the right hand and 12 bass notes in the left to unlock almost every chord you will ever need on the piano. In this lesson, Jason Zac breaks down the theory and shows you how to apply it across all styles. Ever wondered how pro pianists build those rich, jazzy voicings that sound so much more interesting than basic triads? It all comes down to one tiny interval β the third. In this lesson, Jason breaks down a powerful bottom-up harmony approach that will change how you think about chord building forever. Using just two notes (A and C for the minor third, A and C# for the major third) anchored in your right hand, you'll learn how to harmonize them with 12 different bass notes underneath. The result? Triads, slash chords, seventh shells, jazz extensions, diminished and augmented voicings β all from the same two notes on top. We cover specific voicings like F major, Am/E, Dm7, D7sus4, G11, Bbmaj9, Bb minor major 9 (the James Bond chord), F# diminished, B7b9, A7/G Lydian, Eb half-diminished and many more. You'll also learn how to make 'clashing' bass notes actually work by thickening the harmony and using arpeggios instead of block chords. This lesson is perfect for intermediate pianists who want to break out of simple triads, understand jazz harmony, and finally figure out how to voice chords like the pros. Heavy theory content, practical demonstrations, and clear explanations throughout. If you want structured 1-on-1 instruction or our full video course library, links are in the pinned comment.

Learn ear training by playing incomplete chords and singing the missing notes, using triads and seventh chords to improve your musical ear. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music develops your ear through active singing: you play incomplete chords on the piano while singing the missing notes β a technique that builds deeper harmonic understanding than traditional chord identification. You'll start with basic major triads, removing one note at a time (root, third or fifth) while your voice supplies the missing tone. The lesson progresses from simple diatonic exercises to harder progressions like the 1-5-6-4 sequence, forcing your ear to work harder and develop faster. It then advances to seventh-chord ear training using 2-5-1 progressions β essential for jazz and contemporary music β where you sing missing sevenths, roots, thirds and fifths while playing the remaining tones. Perfect for intermediate students ready to move beyond basic chord recognition toward the internal hearing needed for improvisation and composition. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Perfromance 00:23 - Introduction: Singing & Playing Demo π΅ 01:10 - Why Singing Beats Just Identification 01:30 - What Are Missing Notes? 02:02 - Indian Note Names: Sa, Gha, Pa, Ni 02:56 - Exercise 1: A Major Chord Setup 03:21 - Singing the Missing Root Note πΆ 03:38 - Diatonic Scale Practice Method 04:54 - Playing Root Notes in Lower Octave 05:10 - Checking Your Pitch Accuracy 05:54 - Exercise 2: Missing Third Notes 06:02 - Why Thirds Are Trickier to Hear 06:16 - Linear vs Random Chord Practice 07:43 - Exercise 3: Singing the Fifth 08:13 - Tritone vs Perfect Fifth Challenge 08:30 - Chord Progression Challenge: 1-5-6-4 08:48 - Missing Roots in Progression 09:07 - Missing Thirds in Progression 09:25 - Missing Fifths in Progression 09:59 - Seventh Chord Introduction πΌ 10:15 - D Major 7th Missing Note Demo 10:33 - 2-5-1 Progression Setup 10:46 - B Minor 7th - E Dom 7th - A Maj 7th 10:53 - Singing Missing Sevenths 11:04 - Singing Missing Roots in 7th Chords 11:12 - Piano Technique: Playing Incomplete Chords 11:52 - Different Keys Practice Suggestion ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses & Private Lessons β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= βΆοΈ Related Lessons & Playlists π΅ Music Theory lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/PianoTheory πΉ All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) β‘οΈ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC π Ear Training lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= π Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac β‘οΈ https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre β‘οΈ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= π° Donate on PayPal β‘οΈ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal πΈ Instagram β‘οΈ https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes β‘οΈ music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music β‘οΈ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #EarTraining #SingingTriads #ChordEarTraining
Learn 5 essential country guitar patterns adapted for piano, including Travis picking, boom-chick and fingerstyle techniques. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music shows you how to translate five traditional country and folk guitar techniques to the piano for that authentic Nashville sound. You'll discover Travis picking, the boom-chick rhythm and Carter picking, creating melodic bass lines in the left hand with steady chords in the right, using root-fifth alternation, hammer-ons, pull-offs and swing vs straight feels. Everything is worked through over the progression from Kris Kristofferson's Me and Bobby McGee in several keys (G, A, C and D major), building from basic patterns to sophisticated fingerstyle. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Performance 01:03 - Introduction to Country Guitar Patterns on Piano 02:05 - Understanding 1-4-5 Chord Progressions in All Keys 03:27 - Pattern 1: Basic Left-Right Alternating Rhythm π΅ 05:04 - Adding Root-Fifth Toggle for Authentic Country Sound 05:33 - Upper vs Lower Fifth Choices 06:50 - Using Chord Inversions in Right Hand 07:30 - Quick Tip: Playing 7th Chords Effectively 07:57 - Rootless 7th Chord Voicings 09:04 - Adding Hammer-Ons and Pull-Offs 10:15 - When to Use Hammer-Ons (Snare Drum Hits) 10:58 - Pull Offs 12:32 - Carter Picking: Making the Bass Melodic 13:13 - Creating Walking Bass Lines 14:12 - Adding Chromatic Movement 16:34 - Boom Chick Pattern with Swing Feel πΆ 20:28 - Travis Picking Fundamentals 20:37 - Root and Alternating Fifths Foundation 21:03 - Travis Picking: Adding Inner Voices 21:17 - Counting Travis Picking (1 e & a 2 e & a) 21:58 - Making Travis Picking Melodic 22:12 - Keeping Hands Close for Guitar-Like Feel 24:08 - Pattern 5: The Bobby McGee Pattern 24:52 - Broken Chords in Right Hand 25:17 - Pattern 5 with Straight Feel 25:35 - Pattern 5 with Swing Feel 25:42 - Adding Passing Tones Between Chords 27:44 - Practice Tips: Playing with Recordings 28:00 - Modern Stem Splitting Tools for Practice 28:38 - Next Steps and Course Information ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses & Private Lessons β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= βΆοΈ Related Lessons & Playlists π΅ Music Theory lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/PianoTheory πΉ All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) β‘οΈ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC π Ear Training lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= π Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac β‘οΈ https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre β‘οΈ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= π° Donate on PayPal β‘οΈ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal πΈ Instagram β‘οΈ https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes β‘οΈ music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music β‘οΈ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #CountryPiano #TravisPicking #PianoPatterns
Topics:
Learn to harmonise one note with every possible chord, scale, and exotic voicing. In this advanced tutorial, we explore the art of harmonizing a single note (F#/Gb) with countless chord possibilities. Starting with an Ab major framework, Jason Zac demonstrates how to create harmonies using triads, seventh chords, extensions, slash chords, relative major-minor relationships, and exotic voicings. You'll learn how to make any note sound good with every other note in music, including challenging intervals like minor seconds (F to F#) and tritones. Discover techniques for using dominant seventh chords with alterations, augmented chords, diminished voicings, and modal interchange to create mysterious, calm, tense, or cinematic sounds. Topics covered include chord trees, voice leading, inversions, relative chord relationships, altered extensions (b9, #5, b5, #11), and how to think beyond traditional scales for composition and reharmonization. Perfect for composers, arrangers, pianists, and anyone looking to expand their harmonic vocabulary beyond basic progressions.

Learn how to play 3 left-hand harmonic piano patterns to make chords sound more lush and colourful. Stop playing boring root-fifth-octave patterns in your left hand; these work perfectly for pop, rock, Bollywood and contemporary piano arrangements. First, open 9th voicings built from two stacked perfect fifths, which work with both major and minor in the right hand, practised with the F9 to Eb add9 exercise. Second, floating scale tones with a root-octave anchor in a 3/4 swing pattern. Third, diatonic thirds with a static root, combining F major thirds with the root F for folk-inspired sounds and open major 7th voicings. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Performance 00:44 - 3 Harmonic Tools for Left Hand 01:20 - The goal of the Left hand for Harmony 01:43 - Need for Width in the Bass Register 02:01 - The Root - Octave Left Hand Support 02:51 - What weβll learn in this lesson? 04:34 - Spread Ninth Chords 04:57 - Works with both Major & Minor Chords 07:41 - Spread Triads 08:27 - The Ninth Chord Exercise 09:51 - Up a Minor 3rd 10:42 - Fignering for the Left Hand 11:51 - 3/4 Pattern with Swing 12:19 - F Major Floating 13:41 - What could the Bass Movement be? 15:48 - Now for the Minor 16:56 - Modal Modulation 18:12 - Bottom up Approach 19:00 - Anchor with Thirds 19:37 - Combining the Thirds with the Root 20:08 - Drone sound with color 21:20 - Anchor on the Top with Minor 22:13 - Floating from both directions 23:28 - Recapping the lesson and preparing ahead ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses & Private Lessons β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= βΆοΈ Related Lessons & Playlists π΅ Music Theory lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/PianoTheory πΉ All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) β‘οΈ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC π Ear Training lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= π Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac β‘οΈ https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre β‘οΈ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= π° Donate on PayPal β‘οΈ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal πΈ Instagram β‘οΈ https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes β‘οΈ music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music β‘οΈ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #LeftHandPiano #OpenVoicings #PianoAccompaniment
Practice all 7 modes of the major scale with right hand exercises and left hand accompaniment. In this lesson, you learn to practice all seven modes of the major scale by staying on one root and shaping each mode with both close and spread right hand positions. The right hand works on expansion, compression, finger control and clear interval awareness while the left hand builds strength through scale movement and fifth chords. The tritone for each mode is explained so you understand how harmony shifts across Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian and Locrian. You will also learn the key notes that define every mode and how to highlight them while ascending and descending. By the end of the lesson, you will have seven complete exercises to practice and a strong understanding of modal theory in a practical, musical way. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Demonstration 00:35 - Scales & Modes Exercise 00:51 - The 7 Modes of the Major 01:11 - One Key and Many Modes 01:56 - The Skill levels for this Lesson 02:40 - Close & Spread Scalar Motion 03:13 - Techniques for Pianists to work on 03:45 - What we will learn? 04:40 - The Ionian or Major 06:07 - LH playing the Pulse 06:36 - G Major Scale in the Left Hand 07:22 - Ascending & Descending 07:44 - 5th Chords in the Bass 08:13 - LH with Minims 09:18 - The Dorian Mode 09:40 - With respect to Minor & Major - Raising & Lowering 09:56 - The Unique notes of the Dorian 11:00 - Climbing the Left Hand 11:19 - Perfect Fifths & the Tritone 12:27 - The 3rd Degree - Phrygian 13:16 - Adjusting to 1-2b-4-5-7b 14:05 - Fifth chords 14:53 - The Lydian 16:33 - Mixolydian 17:49 - Aeolian (6th degree) - Natural Minor 18:49 - Aeolian with Fifths in the LH 19:33 - The Locrian 20:38 - Climbing the Locrian Ladder ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses & Private Lessons β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= βΆοΈ Related Lessons & Playlists π΅ Music Theory lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/PianoTheory πΉ All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) β‘οΈ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC π Ear Training lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= π Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac β‘οΈ https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre β‘οΈ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= π° Donate on PayPal β‘οΈ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal πΈ Instagram β‘οΈ https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes β‘οΈ music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music β‘οΈ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #PianoModes #FingerExercises #PianoScales

In this 2-part music theory series, we break down every single chord in music, from basic triads and far beyond. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music looks at naming conventions from the point of view of musicality rather than complexity β the way we sometimes over-complicate things. You'll learn about diminished, suspended, dominant, add, tension, 6th, 7th, quartal and modal chords, always keeping their voicing and root notes (bass) in mind. Look out for quiz questions along the way that help you revise the concepts as you go. π« Courses, Workshops or Private lessons β‘οΈ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 Introduction 00:59 CHORD NAMING Step by Step! 04:39 Trick to Play minor 9th Chord 06:22 What is a POLY CHORD 06:42 Playing minor 11th using Poly Chord 10:08 Trick to play Dom7 (#9) on Piano 11:55 Trick to play Dom7 (b9) on Piano 15:46 How to Name Dominant Based Extended Chords 19:15 6/9 Chord 20:12 Slash Chords (Poly) 21:16 Quartal Chords 22:50 Conclusion ============================= πΉ Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) β‘οΈ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ πΉ Piano Courses & Private Lessons β‘οΈ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= βΆοΈ Related Lessons & Playlists π΅ Music Theory lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/PianoTheory πΉ All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) β‘οΈ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC π Ear Training lessons β‘οΈ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= π Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac β‘οΈ https://nathanielschool.com π All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre β‘οΈ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= π° Donate on PayPal β‘οΈ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal πΈ Instagram β‘οΈ https://instagram.com/jasonzac π Call +91 98454 65411 Β· π¬ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 π§ Customised & Private Classes β‘οΈ music@nathanielschool.com π§ Listen to Jason Zac Music β‘οΈ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #ExtendedChords #ChordNames #MusicTheory Continue this lesson series Part 1: naming chords and their extensions β https://youtu.be/NIXbdGHsm8U
