Use SIMPLE Triads to Play COMPLEX Piano Chords: 7th Chords (Part 1)
Using slash chords, you can play simple triads in the right hand over a different bass note to unlock complex seventh chords. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music shows you the formulae for forming seventh chords, modal harmony, jazz extensions and altered chords by playing triads in the right hand with a different bass note in the left. This is Part 1 of a 3-part series that takes you from basic triads all the way to rich, advanced harmony you can use straight away. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Performance 00:18 - Introduction 01:06 - Triads on the Upper Register 03:19 - Major 7th 04:56 - “Simple” Slash Chords 07:57 - Minor 7th 09:48 - Dominant 7th 10:25 - 12 Bar Blues Demo 11:23 - Accompaniment Style 12:00 - Minor Major 7th 13:15 - Minor 7b5 14:11 - Diminished 7th - A small mention 14:49 - Preparing for Part 2 ============================= 📹 Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses & Private Lessons ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= ▶️ Related Lessons & Playlists 🎵 Music Theory lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/PianoTheory 🎹 All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC 👂 Ear Training lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= 🎓 Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac ➡️ https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre ➡️ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= 💰 Donate on PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️ https://instagram.com/jasonzac 📞 Call +91 98454 65411 · 💬 WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 📧 Customised & Private Classes ➡️ music@nathanielschool.com 🎧 Listen to Jason Zac Music ➡️ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #SeventhChords #SlashChords #PianoChords
