1. Introduction: Hi guys, My name is Caleb
Fadell. I am a musician. I have created this flat
advanced course for the piano so that I can help you learn a few
of these tricks. Learn a few of these nuances that you've
heard people play. Now, Key flat is very
famous in the US, in America, and in South Africa, maybe in other
countries as well. But those are the
two countries that this Key is most famous in. So if you've listened
to their music, you will hear a lot of
stuff that they play. This course is meant to help
you understand this stuff. So I have a chapter on
advanced use of minor codes, advanced use of augmented codes, advanced use of suspended codes, advanced use of quota codes. In the end, I have about three song
examples for you to use, and I have a practice track for the augmented codes because
they are not very common. I hope you will join me in that you will learn and by
the end of this course, you will be on your way
to becoming a pro player.
2. Chapter 1 Left And Right Hand Combinations: Now this is a new course, we are releasing on
the key of flat. Okay? So this is a course that is going to
be on the key of flat. Many of you have been
asking for this course. Like I've always
said, we are covering each key after the other. Now that we've done
sharp sharp and C and G, now we are going to
the key of flat. We are basically covering
each key at a time. In this first chapter, I'm basically going to be
teaching you on combinations, combinations that some of these professionals use to
sound a little bit better. If we may look at the flat major scale.
Looks something like that. Okay? That's flat as one, B flat as 23d, flat as four flats, five as 67, back to a flat one. Okay? Basically that's flat. If we do it in terms of triads, we have that flat major is one, that's flat. C and D flat. Then B flat minus two, that's B flat, D
and B flat flat. And then minus three flat. D flat major is four, that's flat and flat flat. And B flat flat major is
five flat, that's minus six. G. B flat. D flat is your seven. That's the G diminished,
back to the one, okay? Okay. So you could even practice playing
this on both hands. Okay? It could be a
good exercise for you. Okay? Both hands, but I'm not here to teach
you those exercises. But they could help you
master the scale of flat, if you are not very familiar
with the key of flat. But that's it. I'll be
teaching you combinations. When I talk about
combinations, I mean, left hand and right hand, maybe assuming your left hand is playing the base line, okay? And your right hand
is playing a code. Which code can you combine with? What base line? Let me start from the one.
That's your flat. Let me start from the one. You can always combine the
on e and the one. See that? That's flat then flat and
flat on my right hand. Okay. Now, because this
is an advanced course, I want you to learn some
new voicing that's nine. You could play nine, not just the flat
on your left hand. You could add the flat. Okay? The flat flat. Then you have a
flat. Flat and flat. You could play a nine. The other way you could play. Now you could invert this
ad name, You see that? Still name B flat, flat, flat. You could still invert it flat, flat and B flat. Or the last inversion, flat, flat, flat and C. Okay. Or as a major seven that's flat, flat and right hand inverted. If flat flat, invert
it again, flat. And the last in version
that's flat, flat. Yeah. Then the last way you could
play this is major 79. Okay. It's basically a combination of this flat flat flat
and when you're right, you could play it
however you want. Okay. That's the inversion
B flat flat flat. Flat and B flat, That's another in version
could have this B flat. And these are the
last in version. Flat flat and flat. Yeah. You could play it like that. Yeah, we don't just do that one. We'll do the same for the four. Yeah, we'll do the same for other cords but let's get to the next combination. That's the two over
the 122, over the one. Now, how do you play this? Now if you want to make
this sound better, because this is just flat, then B flat flat, just add the sharp
note or the flat on your left hand that
you have a flat flat. Then you have B flat
flat on your right hand. Now this is an Or D flat
major seven over the flat. This normally takes
you to the four. I'm giving you this
combination for the four, but we haven't
gotten to the four. This is the one. This is flat, flat over the
four, That's flat, flat, you see normally takes
you to the four. Okay? Okay. So that's the two. You could use the
two as a major. Okay? But I'll show you
in the next chapter. For now, I'm sticking
to the major scale the way it is in the major scale. Two is a minor, right? So let's go to the
three over the one. So basically if you play
the three over the one, it just makes the
one a major seven. You have flat flat, then you have flat,
whichever in version that's C and D flat,
whichever inversion. The one of the four. No, it's not the one over the 44014 over the one and flat. Then you have fight
on your left hand. If you want to make
this sound better, just at the notes that you have a flat and then
you have flat and flat. This brings you back
to the one, okay, maybe I can play the
one at 99 there. That's an inversion of the nine, that's the first inversion here. See that? Then you have something
like a five over the one that's flat, G and B flat over the one you could decide to,
you could decide to add. Normally we play the flat. And this stretch stretch, it's a very long
stretch. The flat flat. And see then you play the
fight flat and B flat, it's a very long stretch. Certain stretch, okay. So that's the 5/1 Instead of just playing the one
like this all the time, we could, could use that one. Then we have the six over the one teach. The
six is a minor. Right looks the
flat the inversion. And flat, I'm going to
be using that inversion. This is how it looks like. On your left hand you have
the flat and the flat. Then on your right
hand you have and flat you can even extend
it so that you have F. A flat and yeah, that's the six over the one. Then you can also play
the six over the four. This one normally
takes you to the food. You see that I have a
Ford on my left hand that's flat and flat. Then I have and flat
on my right hand, it's basically the six over the one to the six
over the four. Okay. This normally takes you to the instead of okay, could do this or the voicing I taught you
earlier, the one over the four. Okay? The six of the four. Whichever voicing works for you. That's it for the
combinations on the one, you see nothing
complicated there. Then we'll go to the next number on our scale, which is the two. What can you combine
the B flat with? We can have a one over
the two over the two. Which looks something like, if we played in literal
terms, simple terms, it looks something like
this, Flat and flat. You can use this in place of a normal two instead of
just playing this. You can play this. Now to make this sound better, you're going to have
another stretch. You see the stretch
you did on the one, the ten stretch when
I was teaching 51? Now there is another
stretch for the two. It looks like this. You are playing something like a
B flat, minor seventh. Okay? Yeah. You have B flat flat and D flat
on your left hand. Then now you can play the
one on your right hand. Okay. A flat and flat. Yeah. You can even add this
naught here so that you have a flat and flat. Okay. So you can have that. You need
to practice this stretch. Okay. That's the one of the two. Then we have a two over the two. That's obvious, but I don't
like to use it that way. Okay. Let's go to the
three over the two. It looks something like
this, you might ask me. Okay, where do you
even use that? Yeah, that's B flat. Then you have flat and where
I would use this code, this one normally resolves
back to the major two. Okay, Once you play this, the next code is
usually major two. That's B flat. B flat. Yeah, so that's a major rule. So then takes you to the five. See, I'm playing the five
also as another nine. I have G, B flat, and D flat. Then I just flat
on my left hand. Yeah. This one. This one. Okay. Okay. Okay. You could even instead of a major tone
in your right hand, you could play a six. Okay. So that you have a major tone in your left hand and a six on your right hand, you have flat, flat. Then you have a flat. Yeah. Then to the five. Okay. That's three over the two.
Then we have the four. The two, that's another
obvious option here I'm using. This is the second
in version of the four that's flat flat. Then I have B flat. And now, like I said
in the beginning, make the four major seven. So you have this, you
could have this as well. You see the voicing on
my left hand changes. Now I have B flat and
flat on my left hand. Then I have flat, flat and C on my right hand, that's a major seven. That's a C sharp or
flat major seven in, like I say, there are
so many inversions. He It's the same nodes,
just invert them. Then I also said you
could play a major seven at nine flat flat, flat. Invert it, Okay? Flat, flat. And voicing on my left hand
remains flat and flat. Whichever voicing you
really want to play. Even that one is still a
C major seven at nine, flat A and flat. That's still A flat major 792. Then the next one
is the six over the two B flat flat, then flat, instead of you just
playing the two, you could just play six B
flat flat, then F flat. Then the last one is seven
over the two B flat flat flat. Normally, when
you're playing 1234, sometimes you just play the one. Then you play the seven over the two to three and the four, okay? Okay. I'll teach you some
of these movements later. That's basically it for the two. Let's go to the three. We
have the one over the three. The one over the three. Instead of you playing
there like a three, maybe you want to go
to the three to four, you could just play the
one over the three. Then the one over the four, like I taught you
in the beginning. A. Okay. So it sounds
very nice. Okay. We could even have the C and E flat on your left
hand so that you have a flat and flat on
your right hand. Yeah. Okay. Then we have we today like to go with the three as far as the major
scale is concerned. We have the three Of the three, I'll skip the two because the
two comes in another form. It doesn't come as a minor, it sometimes comes as a major or as a diminished
seventh or something. I'll teach you that
in the next chapter. But the three of the
three, That's obvious, but we normally don't like
to play the three over the three if you've had most
of the professionals play. Okay, so we normally substitute with the
one over the three. Or the other substitution
for that would be the five over the three. Now that's another combination, the five over the three. So you have C and B flat, then you have flat G and B flat. Yeah, whichever in version then. Okay. So that's the five over the three, that's
another combination. Then you could also
have the seven over the three sevens are diminished
seven over the three. Normally we would
make the C major, you could have the C and E, then you could have
the B flat and D flat. That normally leads
you to the six. Okay. The voicing
amusing for the six. Amusing flat then flat and okay, you could have such a
voicing for the seats. That's it for the three.
Then let's go to the four. I'll start with the
first combination I showed you, the one, the four, that's flat, then flat and flat. You could even add this flat. You could even add this B
flat so that you make the one on your right hand
at night. Okay? Could have such a
voice, D flat flat then flat flat then in it. By now you should be knowing the inversions that those are just in versions of the
flat nine on your right hand. Okay, that shouldn't
be difficult. Yeah. Let's go to the
next one which is a 24. You see, that doesn't really
sound very conventional, but we use it in
some African songs, most English songs, you
wouldn't find such a co. For African songs, we
normally like to use it. It normally takes us to
the one over the five. Yeah, Yeah, that's flat, flat then I have
flat and B flat. It normally takes
us to this code, the one over the
five, that's flat, flat and B flat, flat and flat. Basically, I'm just playing. The one is nine over the five. Yeah, but you didn't find it in the Western
or English songs. It's just an African. Right. Then we have the five over
the four you could have that, you could have flat
then flat, flat. Where does this take you to? This normally brings you to the one over the three
like we covered in there. Yeah, I'm playing the 19 again. Flat, flat, flat
and flat over the. Could even have D flat
and G flat and B flat, flat, flat, flat, flat. That pretty much not a
problem. Then we have the 64. That's a very good
voicing for you. You could actually play
both cords on both hands. You play a four on the left hand and a six
cord on your right hand. That's flat, flat then flat. That's a good substitution. I'd like to end
it there for now. Then we'll do all the other
combinations later. The five. The five, you can
always play one over the five that's flat, flat, flat in many
circumstances. Then the two over the five, I like to voice it that
way, That's flat, flat, that's a two, B flat minor, then flat, flat, and B
flat on my left hand. That takes you to the one
or takes you actually, then we have the three
over the five. Okay? So you could have
flat flat and D flat. Then you could C and D flat. This one also resolves back
to the two over the five, like we've done a
few seconds ago, takes you to the one, Okay? Okay. So that's the three. Then you have the
four over the five. I, the same way I voice it as when I'm playing
the two over the five. Flat, flat, flat, then
flat and flat. Okay. Then you have the five over
the five, that's obvious. You have the six
over the five again. Yeah, I voice the same way. Flat, flat, flat then flat. That normally leads you to the seven over the five most times. That's the other combination. The seven over the five, that's flat, B flat
flat, and the inversion. See you can combine
the five with pretty much every
number on your scale. The 123,456.7, Then
we have the six. We normally play the
one over the six. Okay, That's pretty
much obvious. Flat then flat else do the six. Play the six with the
three flat then flat. And now I'd like to give you another stretch for you to
practice the flat flat. Then you have the three
code on your right hand. Yeah, that's flat. And maybe even if you're
playing a one over the six, you could A flat flat. Could I said you
could use the 197. Okay. You could practice
the stretch flat, flat. Yeah, you could practice that. That's the three over the six. We have the one over the six, We have the four over the six. But I'll teach you that. It's in special circumstances. Flat, flat, flat. I'll teach you the use of this, it's in specific circumstances. Then we have the
five over the six. What I normally like
to do is to play the six code on my left
hand and the five code on my right hand that's
flat then flat, flat. Instead of you voicing
the six like this voice, it flat, flat, flat. That's five over the six. Okay? That's pretty much
it for the six code. Okay? So we have the one, the 34.5 Then for
our seven code, which is the last one, you
can combine it with a two, you can combine it with the two. So that's the B flat flat. Okay. You can combine it with the two. The other number you can
combine the seven with comfortably on the
major scale is a five. So you could have
something like this. Yeah. F, then flat, B flat, whichever inversion, by the way, could we even have
the B flat flat? Flat, flat, you could
even make it And nine, that becomes flat. G and B flat. Yeah, something like that. Let's make it a nine flat, flat. That's 5.7 Again, can combine
the seven with the seven. We can also combine the
seven with the six. But that's another story that
I'll teach in the section. I think I'm using the six
as a major, not as a minor. Those are the basic combinations as far as the major
scale is concerned. Yeah, from the one to the seven. In the next chapter,
I'll be teaching you how to use these
combinations in context. And we're also going
to add some new codes, maybe two as a major, six as a major, three as
a major and all that. But for now, that will be
it for the first chapter. I'll see you in the next one.
3. Chapter 2 Movements Based On Major Chords: Welcome to chapter two of our
course on the key of flat. In chapter one we covered
pretty much combinations. That was all we did. We based our combinations on the major
scale. That's all we did. But for this chapter,
I'm now going to be delving into new codes. And movements are starting
from this chapter to the end. For this chapter, I'll take you through movements
based on major codes. And when I talk
about major codes, I mean any major
code on this piano, not just the 14.5 Okay? Any major code? Maybe a B flat. C sharp. Okay. There's just movements
based on major codes. Okay, Maybe I'm
going to be inciting May 7 major ninth,
something like that. Let's get right into
the first movement. When I was doing combinations, I covered the two over the one. I said you could do
something like this. Okay, let's make the two major, because the two at that
instant was a minor. Let's make it major. Let's make it major
still over the one. Now, what do you do
with such a code? You have a flat and
then you have B flat, D. And where does such
a codes lead to A. What does such a
code resolve to? This one always resolves
to the five of seven. If you have something
like this, see that I'm playing the 5.9 okay? You have a flat D, then to the, then
you have flat seven. You can use it to substitute, instead of just playing the
major two, then to the seven. For the major two, the five
play the one to the seven. Assuming you're
playing a simple song, then maybe you could
now do see that. Now it's the same code. What I did was just to invert it instead of
playing it this way. Okay, I just played it this
way to follow the melody. D, I told you you can play
the flat at nine as well, you don't have to keep it, okay? B flat, CDF inverted
that CDF and B flat, then you have a flat
on your left hand. Then the next could even have flat, then GP flat flat. That was just a simple
demonstration of how you do this, but I'll give you the
demonstrations later, but for now just
know we have sand. Okay. So that was the first
use of the major two, that's the flight major, okay? The next one is over the seven. That's a pretty common use. You will hear things like a. I like to do something like this. Seven you can actually
do whatever you want. But anyway, let's
keep it simple. At nine, you have, then you have B flat CD. And that's the seven always
leads you to the three, okay? Then the, then you
have flat, flat, flat. Then you have your six. I told you you can play
your six with one, like let's say a major seven, then you flat major seven. The inversion, the
last inversion should be the third inversion, flat C flat major seven, A nine. Like I said, flat flat flat 73. Then today six. Now you don't have to voice it. This is the close voicing
the E on your left hand. That's for the three.
You could even play the lower if you
don't have a best player. So that you have C
and E. It's important to learn to stretch. How to do the stretches
the on your left hand. Or maybe the, you
could even play the 17 at nine even
before I continue. Let me just give
you a rule. If you are voicing your six as a minor, if you're voicing
a six as a minor, you can play any note
on your major scale apart from the four, Okay? If you're voicing
the six as a minor, whichever code you
form has every note on your major scale
apart from the four. Let's say I decide to play it. Say I decided to
play it this way. You see what does
my code has a five, he has a one, there are three S, five again as a 67 has a two. You see I have every note on my major
scale apart from the four. Yeah, Yeah, this also applies when
you're playing the one. For some instances,
this same code. I can use this code for the one. Yeah, see that same code, Let's say you decide to
voice it even this way. Simple, so that you have
a flat, flat and flat. Then you have GC. Those are different voicings for the one. As long as your code
has any note on the on the major scale
apart from the four. Same for the six as a minor, because sometimes
we have six as a major and the rule
doesn't apply. Then we have the 2.4. Yeah, for the 2.4
the two as a minor, again, not as a major. For the two as a minor
and for the four. The four as a major, four as a minor. How do you voice this? You can voice it
with any note on your major scale
apart from the seven. Okay. Yeah. That doesn't
apply in all circumstances. But in most, let's say I decide to voice my four
something like the. See that my voicing has 6123, has five, has six again, 1.3 it even has a four. Every note on the major
scale apart from the seven, I could use the same
voicing for the two. Let's say I decide now
not to play the four. The two, I just changed
the baseline 42. Whichever voicing you
can extend your voicing, you can reduce them, You can do everything
you really want to see that that works. That one. Yeah, this one. As long as my code has every note on the major
scale apart from the seven, that's the two as a minor
and the four is a major. For the other one,
we have the six as a minor and the one as a major. That will be pretty much it for. That was for you to note
that going forward, when I play a certain in voicing
on the four, on the two, you don't have a hard
time trying to figure out where the
voicing comes from. That just a they,
let's continue. We did the 71, then the six, see the voicing again? Just an extension of the, what do we call this,
The flat major seven. The AC flat on my left
and flat C and D flat. That's pretty simple.
The other, you can use, your major two is maybe
alongside the three. Yeah. You see that? Maybe you want to go from
the one to three to six. Just play a number one,
that's a number one. Then the stretches,
you have to get them correctly flat and
C or the G and C, you can do whatever
you want to do. The flat. G and C, or the flat, or even both. The flat flat and you can
decide to play the whole. Okay. But normally the
flat and is enough. Okay? So learn how
to play the stretch. If you can't, just play this. Yeah. Flat flat and yeah, just strength, fill
up your voicing. So you have your one flat, B flat, then flat flat,
then to the three. Now the major two
over the three, you have G and B flat. Okay? Then you have
DF and B flat. Now, that's a major code. I'm making it A.
Okay. Cdf and B flat. Then you have some GB flat. Then you can play, you
can even play it this way, C flat flat. Even play that. Within
the course of the course, I'll be giving you
different voicings for the 6.2 You can no
each of them down, you don't have problems in future is just for
the major two. The other use of the major two, which is, it's not very common, it's the major two over the six, that flat then G, B flat. This code is very important because if you can learn
this code in every key, this flat, then you
have G, B flat, D, and F. This is just, let's say you learn it. There is a movement
people like to do. You have, I don't know if you've heard it
somewhere six to one, that's how we use that code. Then you have B flat, D and F. Then you just move each tone up by a
semitone three times. Yeah, the next code is a
flat, flat, flat, flat. The FEG to the flat,
that's flat, flat. The flat, flat and flat. Then the four. Maybe you played the one
like we did previously, then that's the major
two over the three. Then maybe you want to
go back to the one, then the four, you can
play such a movement. The major two over the three, we just covered that. The six, this is major seven, major seven over the now. Just played and
change it to this. B flat, that's the major two. Then flat, we always add
the gene somewhere there. Okay, You have 136. Then the movement, the up
to the flat to the four. If you remember
this voicing from the first part, the flat flat, then flat flat on the 36. Then you see that you see voicing for
the four again, that's another voicing for the
four call that's flat flat then C flat flat and C. Okay. Now if we use the same theory, the major two over the six, we get codes like this. We just transfer
this code, the flat, this code as leads
you again to the 41, maybe on the 36, then the one, then the four. In a later chapter, I will show you how to
resolve the same code, but transfer the same code maybe to h. You have
a five code for flat. This same code to flat. I mean, it looks like
it looks like flat. Flat. Flat and flat. That leads you back to the one takes to the one. This one takes the four. See another voicing
for the four. There are so many voices
for the that's flat flat. Then you have B flat flat. Or you can even voice like that, B flat and flat, you have so many Ds. Then this movement,
that's basically simple. Then the other code
we'd like to play, the major three, we
normally use threes. A minor minor, let's use the major major. I'll try to come up with a progression for
like a song ending. Let's say the song goes like, okay, so the six, then the two, then
the five, then 36. Okay, then we repeat
the progression. Okay, so let me show you the progression is
the two B flat flat, then you have C, D, and F flat. That's a C sharp major
seven over there, B flat. Then you play this as the
melody flat, then flat flat. That's the P over flat. Okay. Then on your right hand
you have B flat flat ENG. We'll explain more about
this type of code. B flat, flat, ENG. Okay, Plate with the
C, then the six. Okay, so that's flat, flat. Take care of this
stretch if you can't, just play the F, G, and flat if you can't. On the right hand you
have E flat and flat. Or maybe B flat, flat and flat you
said you can play at. Okay. Then you repeat. Instead of just go to the flat and then you
have B flat flat. And we have flat, flat, flat, and then
flat, flat, flat. The extensions are good
for your practice. Then to the one flat, flat, flat, flat,
flat, flat and flat. Okay, there you. Okay, so let me show you a movement you can
insert somewhere using the Ja three code. Now see that code. Just repeat it once more. Okay, layer two,
then to the five. To the three, then to the six, then to the core. Okay? It looks like
that you have B flat flat on your left hand, then G on your right hand. That, ma'm, starting with a G. Bring the the so the C, D, and G four at the
same time. Yeah. Then you move the D up to the. Don't do that. Don't play. Don't play. It's just Okay. So then go back to your code. Okay, so the 62536. Then the code. Okay, so those are
just a few movements. Now this code can also
be substituted for, you can use it in
place of a major two. So let's say you are playing
a song like Amazon Gracia. See, but yeah, so see the card I taught you. So I don't want to
go to the next part. So I'm not even playing
cards on the son. I'm just playing the melody. I'll inside the cord
where I need to, inside. So the, I just played major
three over the two, but I played the
major three as nine. Do you see that?
I played a nine. I played DE GC. You can even play this,
you can play this GCE. G. Yeah, that's the
extension nine. Yeah. You have flat flat, then you have G and C. You can have that as well. Then changing it to this code, I'll teach you this in
the minor code section. B flat flat, then B flat, then to the five code
we just covered here, that B flat flat
flat, C and D flat. Then you can continue the song. That's the major
three over the two. I just wanted to get that. Then the other codes I would want you to get is
the major six over the one, something major over the flat. But I'm not going
to be using this in, maybe I'll just use it. Let's say the code
looks like that. Flat flat. Then in the combination section, we covered the six over the one. But we said the six
was going to be a. It looked like what
changes here is just that the flat goes
up to the flat flat. Then you have FAC where
does this take you? To the four. Just like the other code be taking note of these
voicings for the four. There are so many I don't
think I can exhaust them. Flat, flat, flat,
then flat and flat. That takes you to the, this
code takes you to the, whichever voicing of the
fo flat, flat, flat, flat. That's another voicing for it serves the same
purpose as the minus 61, we say takes you to the four. Even on the major
takes you to the four, There is a movement
we like to do on, on that same, actually
land it first in the Fs, the same code. Instead of just landing on the. You start with the movements with an sharp major seven that's flat or sharp, then flat, flat. I mean, that's flat, flat, flat to the one, flat, flat, then
flat, flat, flat. Okay. Then the last
cord is major, then you extend it
to the C. Okay? Okay. On your left hand, you still have the
flat and the flat. You have to practice this
very slowly until you get it. Okay. The four flat flat
then Flat flat. Yeah. You can also do the same
movement of the major three. Major three. I say you
play it on the two, but you can also
play with the five. You can have something like you can have the major
three of the five flat, then you have GCE. Yeah, that normally brings
you back to the On. It serves the same purpose
as the major 6/1 takes four. The major three
over the five flat, CEG takes to the one. Okay. Play the 19. That's an extra code
I just gave you. The major three over the five. Yeah, you see that? I played the four over the 542. I played the major
three over the five. Then the one is a major 79, you see that? You
don't have to play. Yeah, that sounds much better. Just an extra code. We'll demonstrate this further. I'll give you some practice
tracks to do this, but for now, make sure you
have those codes in mind. And the movements that I've
taught in between the lesson, that will be pretty much
what do we call this, two movements based
on major codes. Next we look at movements
based on minor codes, then we continue with the rest. I'll see you in the next lesson.
4. Chapter 3 Movements Based On Minor Chords: In this chapter, you're
going to look at minors. Now, if you look at
your flat major scale, if you look at your
flat major scale, the minus you have are the two, the B flat minor. Then you have the three, the minor, Then you have the six minus on
your major scale. Those are the three
minus you have. You have the two, the 3.6, the B flat minor, minor and the minor, but I'm going to be
moving away from those slightly so that I'm going to be using probably
other numbers in the scale, but making them in codes. Okay, I'm going to be
making them minor codes. Let's say like the
one is a major, we can even make it minor. Or maybe the four
can make it minor. The five can make it minor. Maybe the seven is a diminished, but we can make it minor. Let me start with
the, the seven, okay? The seven is usually a
diminished on your major scale. But in this instance I'm
going to be using it as a minor minor. Now, instead of the diminish going to be using it as a minor, you have flat, B flat, and D. Okay, Just playing
it in both hands. On both hands, Let's invert it. Let's make it something
like this. And B flat. Okay, That's the
second version of the. Now, what you want to be
doing with this code, instead of starting
with the DG, B flat, start with the F, B flat, then til
the F up to the. Okay. You start with DFB flat, then bring the F
up to the G. So it sounds like okay. Okay. Then has to be very fast. Okay? You probably want to be doing that for instances just
to make it sound better, I'll give you the first
use of this code. Normally we like to
use it with the two. Okay, so. So instead of maybe
playing a major two, Yeah, maybe you wanted a song. Yeah. From the one to the
major two, then to the five. Okay. So let me just
show that moment. You can use it, it's basic, but you can use it sometime. Yeah. So a stretch. The flat flat or the flat. Yeah. Okay. So yeah, we can just
use that for now. The flat flat C. Okay. So I'm playing the E and the B, then moving the B flat
up to the C, Okay. Okay. So that's a one card. Okay? Then let's
make the major two, like the B flat, let's make it another night. So it looks like this. That's flat flat, then C, D, and B flat. Then this is the melody, the flat and flat. That's a long
stretch, but I think it's you can play the flat, flat, flat. You can do that.
You can do that. If you don't want
to play stretch. You have flat, flat, flat. Then you have flat, flat. Then we'll just flat to
the drop to the flat. So that you remember that 01, that one at nine. Inable telling you a
flat flat then flat, flat, flat and flat. Now, where do we insert
the minus seven code? Where do you insert the minor? Instead of using the
no major two code, we're going to turn it into a minus seven code so
that it looks like. Okay. Like I told you earlier, you
would consider doing this. You'll hear things. That you still have B flat and
flat on your left hand, but now you have G and B
flat on your right hand. Okay. Then to the six. Yeah, we are using minus, so that's why I'm doing that. So then to the six C, F flat, that's on
your right hand? Yeah, the left hand
remains flat, flat. Okay. Then, okay. Then just go to the 51, that minor D, GB flat. Yeah, then we drop it
down by a full tone, so you have F flat. So maybe the 79 play like that. So that should be
pretty simple, right? So maybe you are playing a song that use the
songs you have used. Yeah, that's amazing Grace. See that? Use that code there. Flat flat, DGP,
flat a minus seven. Okay. So basically okay, then we can continue the song. So basically that's
how I apply it. Okay. I'll give you my
exercises later so. So that was the movement. Yeah. Start is the one. Okay. So that's simple. Yeah. Minus seven Cod. Let me give you another use
of the minus seven code. Assuming you want to go through what do you
call the flat six. Back to the five.
Maybe you're playing a six, you're playing a six. Maybe a 662516 to five. Maybe you're playing
such a progression. I'll give you the six. You can voice it like that, flat, and then you have flat. And then, okay, you still
have this at the top. D and C on your right hand then. Okay. The falls at the same
time with D and C. Okay. Then you drop it to flat. Okay? Okay. You have your six, let's say you have that five
flat, flat, flat, flat. Then you have flat, flat, flat and D flat he. Then you can have the one that we did in the previous section, the major six over the
one, the flat flat. Then you have FAC. Then you can play the four. Now that's flat, flat,
flat, flat. Okay. You have your six, you two, you have your five,
You have your one, you have your four, okay? Okay. Okay. So where do we insert? What do we call them, seven instead of playing
the two like this? Okay. You could not
inserted 62, you see that? B flat flat, Then DG. B instead of, you could do this. Okay? That's one.
Okay? You could insert it into that progression, the minus seven of
the two, then the 51. Another thing you could do, instead of you playing the two, you could just play with, what do we call
this? The flat six? Yeah. Maybe you play the 66. Okay. Instead of
going to the two, you play the flat 66, flat 651. The rest remains
the same. The 66. You can even play like that
so that you have and flat, then you have G and B flat
even have such a code anyway, But let's just have that flat, then B flat, you see instead
of playing it with the two, just playing with the flat six, then the 51, that's another, you can use it with
the flat five, assuming you're going
back to the five, Okay? I'll show you another way. The other way looks like this, but I'll show you that it's
in the augmented section, so that's the major seven. You can use it with
the two or the five. You are using it with
the two when you want the two to
become a major two, you can't use it to substitute
that's two as a minor. You can't use it
to substitute two. Use it to substitute
two as a major. Okay. That's the minus seven. That has been. Hope you've gotten
that very well. The maybe the other minus I would like to
cover. The minus four. The minus five. The minus four. Minus four looks
like a D flat flat. Okay. The minus five
flat flat, flat. Yeah. That's how the
minus five looks like. In new playing, you will have instances where you
have such progressions, especially if you do
a lot of black fell. You have five. I'll just give you the straight
away you have your five, it's normally a one of five. Okay? So it's like you're playing the same
thing on both hands. Okay? You have flat,
flat, flat and. Okay. Then you have flat, flat. You can voice the one however
you want to voice it. You can even have that flat, flat and flat on your right. Okay. That's a nine over, but it's over the flat. Then you have the four. You have the five over the four. Okay? It's normally a
five over the four. You have D flat and B flat. Okay. Left hand. Then you have flat G and B
flat on your right hand. Okay? Okay. Then you have a 33. Looks something like this. May let me voice it using
the minus five now. Okay? So you have flat, B flat, and flat on your right hand. Then you have C, G flat, and B flat on your left hand. Okay? Or you could even
voice it that way, so that you have C and G
flat on your left hand. Then you have B flat flat
and flat on your right hand. Yeah, you could
use the inversion. Okay, So those are
just inversions. Ah, okay. But
normally we like to. And then after that, let's go to the six. I'll give you a voicing for
the six, which looks like. Flat, then flat flat. Okay? Instead of this, could also play it
higher in plate A flat, then a B flat flat and okay, then the other code. The last code is you
have B flat flat, then you have flat, flat, flat, amina, then you go back
to the one of the 543, then the six, then the two. Okay. So side sounds. The four. The three. This is what I did there. I just in four but
as an inversion. So the flat, flat
instead of this, I played the two. Yeah, I'm just playing it so you can get the
progression there. Basically, that's a
progression, the 5436. Now this is where you apply in four and minus
five progressions. Okay. That's why I said I'm
doing the four in five. What would you want to do? You would want to do
something like these. Let's say you have 54. The next code is always a
minus five over the three. That's a minus 54. I like to use these
two persons or code. Let's see, what can
we do to embellish this codi five over the three? What can we do? We
can play something. That's the first, the first
way is to make sure you have a triton somewhere in between or like I like
to call them spoiler. Instead of just playing
the C and the, The flat. Yeah, play the C and E. Okay. On your left hand you have E, then you have flat, flat land. Okay. But I normally like
choose it with this in part, the CE, then B flat flat flan. If you're playing alone, you don't have a base
player, just play it low. That you have C and E so that you learn how to play
the stretches, okay? Then you have B flat
flat and G flat. Let's say you have 55
to five over the four. Then you see that. You
see how it sounds. It now sounds like it's more
professional or something. Yeah. What other thing am
I doing to make it sound better? I'm
starting with this. I'm starting with a
G flat major code, but I'm moving the
flat up to the flat. Okay. Here that I'm using sine, then maybe six or this. Then you could do
something like. Okay. What did I do to get
to the Mina four? D, I started from the Mina
five. I started from here. B flat, flat, flat, drop it, permit DF then flat, flat. Okay. Okay. Going to go back to the five. If I apply the two movements
I've taught you the twod, I'm playing it slowly, then you see that the six, or you don't have even to
start from the minus five, you could start from
lower, like a lower. Instead of starting from here. Maybe start from
here, flat B, D, up to GC flat, then flat, flat. Okay? You can start
from top or bottom. Let's say 536. Let me say I start from bottom. Okay. See that? See what I did again there
with the three code. Instead of just
starting from here, I started from a tone higher. I started from here, F flat, drop it to B, G, then come back
to B flat flat. Okay. So that's
the 66 is a mina. Then to the flat
six, to the Mina. Five. Okay. So I
did something like five and I'm still playing
the C and E on my left hand. Okay. So I just played now this in version, so the E flat flat, that's a minor four
over the B flat. Okay? Okay. So, okay, is what I did there,
what did I do there? I played the minor four, the D flat minor, so
that's E flat flat. I went to the flat maina. Again, that's the
flat, flat, flat. Then to the inversion
of the main four, that's the flat flat. Okay, so let me show
you how you apply that. So let's come from
a higher, see that? Then to the six then. Okay, let me insert
another movement. You see that, that movement. So how does that
movement look like? Start from C minor, okay, that's C flat, go to D flat in
that's flat flat, then minus D to the flat, minus B, E flat, okay? So that's minus five. Let's say I'm playing
12345, then I'll do this. See that if you could at least slow this down
so that you get it fast, it would be very nice for you. So let's say you play 5436 after that movement five, then to the F five to the Mina. Okay. You see that? That's
another movement? Yeah. So we sat here flat, flat. Then you go back to the
minor five, that's flat, flat, flat, flat, flat, flat. Then you play the B
diminished, that's flat, flat. Then you go back to
the one of the five. Okay? Okay. That's another way, instead of, you could even play this, you start with the min five, the flat flat, flat. Drop it down by semitone D, then flat flat, That's
the minus four. Then this diminished so
that flat E and B flat, then back to the
one of the five. Okay, Let me play It hiked higher, I'm using a lot of slats. See for the min
five, I'll do this. Okay. Then, then, then see that that's
another movement. Yeah, I'm just giving you
a variety of movements. It's the inversion, so you
just start with the D flat. That's flat. Flat to the D in, that's AD. And on the flat in that's La. Okay. So the five for then. Okay. There. I thought that movement there there. See that? That's what it
is. The other movement. Let me give you
another movement. So basically this
minor code section is more of minor four and
minus five movements. Yeah. Because they are
not normally used. Yeah. Keep it simple. Three, then six, then two, then you'll hear movements like. Okay. Okay. Okay. So that's the first code all those chords you play while
you're on the two. Yeah. Okay. B flat
on your left hand, then you start with flat and
flat on your right hand. Then you have B
flat, flat and flat, then flat flat and
then to the five. The one of the five. Yeah, I taught you that's the basic
one, flat, flat, flat. It's like I'm starting
with the last two nodes and then playing the, the fast not yeah. Okay. Okay, that's
all I'm doing. Okay. So okay. Okay, that's a good
movement. So the 54. Okay. Then I could use
another move, a scale. You could use that final minor minor four
card over the two. You could use such a scale. Okay? So it's the B flat flat. Okay? Then flat flat, That's the 21, flat
six, then 543. Okay? So you can take
it as far as you want. So let me just
demonstrate it. Okay? You'll practice scale
later, but get the notes. And I'm using these
three fingers, okay? My thumb, my first
and my middle finger. Starting with the middle to
the first to the thumb. Okay. Then I cross over. Okay. So the file's say the three then takes me to the five again. Okay. So you can do whatever
you want with that scale. I hope you got the
scale correct. That will be for this
section, the mind section. You see, I based my lesson on three minus the 74 minus five, especially the -4.5 movements. If you could actually
get movements, you would actually
sound really good. Okay, That's it for the chapter. I'll see you in the next one.
5. Chapter 4 Movements Based On Diminished Chords: Okay, so welcome to part four
of our course on the key of flat advanced co, definitely. We covered the minus seven and the minus four
and minus five movements. We covered such movements
in the previous section. That was movements
based on minor codes. Now for this one, we're going to do movements
based on diminished codes. A diminished codes.
Just diminished. Yeah, but let me say
diminished seventh code, because that is going
to be my main focus. Okay. A diminished
code looks like this. That's diminished code. The B and D. If you want to make it a diminished seventh code, it looks like this flat D, That's the diminished seven. If you invert it, you get a
B diminished seventh code. If you invert it again, you get a D diminished seventh code. Yeah, if you invert it again, you get an diminished
seventh code. Okay? The same thing. Okay. That's the same thing on the diminished
seventh code is the same as the diminished seventh code. It's the same as the D,
diminished seventh code, and it's the same as the
diminished seventh code. Based on that theory, we only have three
sets of diminished seventh because one
constitutes of keys. Okay? The other one
maybe start from A, It's a diminished seventh, it's diminished seven, it's
flat diminished seventh, and it's sharp
diminished seventh, or G flat diminished seventh. Okay? Okay. Then the last
set starts from B flat. The B flat one is the
same as the B flat, the D flat, the E, and the, those are
the constituent keys. Okay? So, B flat invert, it becomes B flat again. Okay? So those are basically the three sets of diminished seventh
cards we have. And we're going to be using
them randomly, everywhere. Okay? Okay? So let us start
with a simple movement. Let's say a 736 movement. Okay? I want to go to the seven, to the three to six now, diminished seventh codes. Okay? Using diminished seven
codes, what would I do? Just take a look and listen, and then I'll break it down. So. Okay. Okay. So that's the movement. Okay? How does that sound? It's not bad. Yeah,
let's do this. If you play that movement, very basic, this is how
it would look like. Okay? That's the, that's your seven
G and F on your left hand, then you have B, D, and F on your right. Okay. That's the basic way. Or maybe you can decide to make it a little
bit more advanced. So you play the extension.
It's still the same thing. You have DF and okay. The this way again, I said you can use any
of the inversions. So you can play, you can
play, it's the same thing. You can, you can even play this. Okay? But I normally
like the extension. The flat B, D and flat. And on your left hand, then to the three C, E. Then you have B flat flat
and on your right hand, okay, extend it, That's flat, Flat E and G. Okay? Okay. The 73 to six. Okay? I remember teaching you
this voicing for the six. You have flat and flat
on your left hand, a long stretch here, or maybe G and flat for those who go on to
extend the G and F flat, then you have flat and B flat
on your right hand. Okay. So 6736. You see how I played
the six again. I played it with an flat
at nine this time round. So that's flat. Then I have a flat. Flat. Flat and flat. Yeah. Like I told you, I'll using so many voicings
for six code. The four code. The two code and
even the one code. Yeah. It's better
you note them down or practice them so
that you are familiar, so that you can change those voicings
anytime you want to. Basically, the
movement, the seven, the three, then the six. Okay. What did I do to make
it sound like the way it sounded at the beginning?
This is what I did. He I read something. You see that? Did you see what
technique I'm using? It's like I'm playing
each note on its own. Now, for this seven chord, I'm starting from the top. It's like I'm doing, it's like I'm playing
each note on it. That's what I'm doing.
But you have to do it very fast, see that? Okay. That's exactly
what I'm doing. The seven then. Okay. Then for the three D, I'm starting now
from bottom to top. Okay? So that's G. B flat flat, and J. I broke this down
already for the seven cards. Start from the top there. You see I'm doing the same for the six card I learned
on this left hand cord, the flat and flat once
I've reached the. Okay. See that? So you don't have to go
always top or bottom. You can choose, I
could decide to go from top to bottom
for both of them. Like then I do the same for the G diminished seventh. Okay. Then see that. Okay? Basically it's just
playing each at a time, whether coming from
top to bottom, or from bottom to top, or, but you see for the
light diminished seventh, this feels more comfortable coming from the
top to the bottom. Yeah. Than this. Okay. But it just
depends with your hands. Okay. You can always bring it from
the top or from the bottom. Okay. Okay. This sounds better. So those are the techniques
the professionals use. It's not like they use
anything very fancy. Yeah, they don't use
anything fancy Y. So this was the inversion
I used for the three, I use the diminished seventh. We could decide to invert it and have something like this. Okay. I can also use that so I don't have
to use this all the time. I can use this for the three. I could use B flat flat, G and B flat. Okay. So I could maybe do
see the same thing. Okay. So that's it. It's, it's a simple movement, but it sounds really advanced. Yeah. Okay. So you could do whatever you want
to do with that movement. Okay. Let's try another movement from the three to the
six to the two, okay? I'll basically be doing the same thing but
in a different key. Whatever I was doing
on the, on the 736. Now, let's assume you do the same thing.
Which key is this? We want to go now to
the 36 to six to two. Now, let's assume we are doing the same thing on
the key of p. Yeah, relating keys, this is where
relating keys comes in. If you land the key of, it's very easy to land the key flat because
they're related. Okay, Let me do the
same thing in P. And let's apply it
on the key of flat, assuming I did a 736
on the key of C sharp. Yeah, this is how it would
look like a seven that you see that seven to three, which would look now like
something like this. Okay, then to the six, now what does that sound like? That's definitely a 362
in the key of F flat. The same codes,
we're not changing anything three on
the key of F flat, like I said, play
the C and E always. Then you have flat,
flat, flattened. D flat. Okay? D flat, E, G, B flattened, and D flat. And you could play it
from the top as usual, then just drop it to the C, so that you now have flat, flat A and C. On your left hand, you have and, and A to the two. It's actually the same theory. So you have flat,
flat and D flat. Then you have A flat, C and E flat. Okay. Again, I'm starting from top. Okay. Okay. So the three looks like. Okay, Then to the six to two. Okay. So and like I said, you can always use invasions.
You don't have to use this. You could even use this. Yeah, I'll use invasions
for both of them. Yeah, see what I did. I just moved this
from here to here. I moved from here to
here. Be we have the B. Okay. So let me just
break down this. Yeah, that C, E, then B flat flat. E, G, and B flat. Okay. Then it flat
on your left hand, then you have a flat flat, and then to the two. I'm giving you so many
voices for the two. Okay? B flat flat. Then on my right
hand I have a S, D flat major 79. That C, D flat flat
and flat. Okay? Okay? So, so you can play as well. Okay? You don't have
to play it for, you don't have to play
it from there, really. You can actually even
play it from here. Okay. It's just about
awareness. Yeah. You can play something like what does this
thing look like? Okay, so okay, so it's
basically about in fashion, learn how to play
the code from here. From here. Which is the
next code from here. From here. From here again. Okay, it's just the same code, but you're inviting it into
different positions here. So that's the 7360, not much of a house, right? That's a simple code
which you can use. Let's say you want
something like what. Let's go to the next movement. Really the next movements are going to be based on
what I call drop 1.6, okay? Drop one voicing. Drop one voicings are very nice. They sound really
nice. If you can master how to use
drop one voicings. Now I'll use a
simple illustration. This is the flat
diminished seventh. You have a flat, D and F. Okay, That's what you have what I
would call a one voicing is you from the top. Okay? We normally don't count. And the last, the first
note from the top. D from the top, I mean. High. Okay. I don't mean
yeah, from the top. I mean, higher as in the voice that sounds
higher than the other one. This is the first
note from the top. That's all from your
right hand side. Okay. That's normally, we
don't count the F and F flat. We don't count the last note, so use the notes that are
in between the D. I'll drop the D and
remain with a flat, and then I'll have the
D on my left hand. It's still the same
diminished seventh, but I dropped the D from right hand and played
it on my left hand. Now this is what I
call a drop one voice. Okay, let's maybe
use the inversion. The inversion looks like this. Okay? Df and flat.
What would I do? I would drop the from
my right hand and plate on my left hand. Assuming I play the two
inversions, it would sound like, you see that if I
invert it again. Now, here I dropped the flat. Okay. Instead of
playing it like this, I dropped the flat. If I invert it one last time, I have B then flat, D flat and D, okay. Basically dropping. That's why I'm calling
it a drop one voicing. Okay? There are also
drop two voicings. But in this course, I will basically base my teaching
on drop one voicings. In a future advanced course, we'll advanced now, that's
more advanced than this one. We'll cover two voicings, but for now we'll cover one voicings because
they are also a hassle. They're not that easy to master. You'll have to do
a lot of practice. Yeah, let's use a simple Some. Yeah. As the cross. Yeah, then. Okay, so I'll listen. I'm not really
showing you the codes that actually there is a
free lesson for this song, but I think it, so another
key should be F. Okay? You can transcribe
it to a flight. Okay? But I want to show you a movement you can use
in the middle of that song. So this part. Okay, so Terra,
that part, Terra. That's where I want
to show you how to insert the drop one voice. And so then I'll do this. You see that? Oh, no. You have to catch, you have
to understand this very well. Okay? Okay. So how does that look like? So, so that's a four. Okay? Flat flat, then a flat, flat and yeah, then the next
code is usually a flat five. If I was playing it traditional, this is how it would look
like a D. Then flat and flat. Okay, Then I'll just
leave the flat. So I would have just
leave the flat. Not yet. The same code. That's
how I would sound. I was playing it traditional. Okay. But now we want to sound a little bit
modern. Okay, So. Okay, and do you see what
I'm doing with my left hand? So how does this look like? No drop one. I'm supposed to be using this diminished diminished
seventh cord. Df and flat, but I'm now
playing the F on my left hand. Okay. So I have B, D, and F flat. Okay. And it's like I'm
leading into the from the F. So that's the first
cord flat. Yeah. Then I invert the same. I have D on my left hand, then I have a flat
B and F. Okay. What am I doing? That's
what I'm doing with my left hand. Okay. Then I'm going to the
three, but that depends. You could go to
the five as well, depending on how you learned
how to play the song. Okay. Okay. Okay. So that's how it looks like. Yeah. So you have to practice
this to be very precise. Yeah. Okay. So Okay, but that's not I'm
eking for now. I just want let you to master where that movement is used. Now, let us substitute that movement with
another movement. Okay? So just use
your ears then. This is what I'll do. Okay?
Listen to what I'm doing. Okay? So that's a very long movement. Yeah, then you have the see that movement. So let me put this in context. I'll put it in context. This is the whole
movement. D then flat, okay? I'm using drop one. Voices D then flat, then inverted, then B, D flat. Okay? Then the next, then you have flat,
flat and okay. Then you have the flat. D and F flat. And I mean, then then
you have a flat. Flat and flat. Okay. So the first
movement looks like. Okay. Then the
second movement is okay, flat. Then you have flat, flat and C. Okay. Drop one voicing. Then you have on your left hand, then you have flat and B flat. Okay? Invert it again. Then you have B flat flat and okay,
then the six. Then you have flat and flat. Okay, I'll be doing it slowly. Then second movement. Okay, then the last
movement looks like, then you go to the two. First flat, then
you have and flat. Then you have A, then
you have flat and okay, then then you have
flat flat. Okay? Then to the two. B flat flat flat. Then B flat and D flat. Then you can continue
it into context. Okay, so that's the old
movement, you can imagine. What do you get
from that movement? Yeah, so this one. Okay, so you start, let me start with
the third movement. Yeah, this one. That's a
movement to take you to the two. You don't have to
use it in that song. Yeah, the last movement
always takes you to the two. Maybe I wanted to play one
to three to six to two. You see that's the last
movement I taught you had. Takes you to the two. The other one takes
you to the six. Looks okay, let me
just break it down. Then B, D flat, then then B flat flat, then you invert it, then flat, and B flat takes you
to the six flat, then flat flat. Okay. It okay. My left hand. Yeah, that's the F to the N, T to the six. You see this movement?
Taxi to the two. That's the last
movement in that song. Yeah. I usually get so myself. Then this tax to the six. Maybe you wanted to play seven, then player six, okay. Maybe to play three
to six to two. You play six at three, I mean, then you play the
movement, Okay? Those are some good
movements you can use as far as drop one
voicings are concerned. Okay? That's what basically
I'll teach for this chapter. So make sure you master the
one voicings very well. The other thing is you
have to know how to invert the diminished seventh. I've been teaching. You know how to invert them, practice the drop one voicings. Those ones are very important because in future when I
teach on drop two voicings, you might not be able
to understand them very well if you haven't gotten
the drop one voicings. Okay? So it's good that you
do a lot of practice. I'll be giving you
exercises definitely, But this is up to you to
do your own practice. Okay? So that will be
it for this chapter. I'll see you in
the next chapter.
6. Chapter 5 Advanced Suspended Chord Movements: We covered diminished codes. In the previous section, we've covered movements based on major codes, minor
codes combinations. Now we'll be looking
at suspended codes. Suspended two, suspended four. Okay, let's get
right into it now. This is an flat
major code, okay? It looks like that.
Flat and flat right. Now, if I drop this, which is the third on my scale
to the two, which is flat. If I have something
like this, now that becomes flat
suspended two, okay? Okay. Now if I have the major code and I sharpen
the C to the C sharp, which is pretty much the four on my scale,
on my major scale. Okay? So, so that becomes
an flat suspended four. Okay? Okay, So those are the two kinds of codes
we're going to be using, the suspended two on
the suspended four, not just for the key of flat, For pretty much all keys. Yeah. Normally we like to
play the suspended code in this format, that one, okay? You have a flat,
this is just that. You have the same on
top and at the bottom, it's pretty much an extension, but I have the flat
at the bottom. This is the format
we like to use while playing suspended codes. Okay, Now that you have the theory behind what
a suspended code is, T's, okay, let's get
right into this. How do you use suspended
codes on the Q of a flat? I will start with
the basic theory for the one to the seven, okay? Okay. Normally, we don't use a suspended code for the five
using this theory, okay? But we could use other
suspended codes for the five. We don't normally use
one for the five. Yeah, I think it's
just the five. Yeah, Let's start from the one, the one which is the flat. The first the suspended code you use alongside the one is
the suspended two code. Now we like to play like
this so that you have CF and then on your left hand you can
have something like this, flat and G. Or maybe
flat and yeah. Yeah, that you have such flat
F and G. Then you have FGC. Okay. That's the one. If you use it on the one, you can also use it on the on the one is the what
actually changes is just to the aka the
rest remains the same. So you can have a FGC. Okay. That's the one. Maybe
if you wanted to play, maybe the one to the sharp
one to the two. Okay? So you could do this, Okay? Okay. So the sharp two. D two. Okay. The same suspended code used for the one is the same use
for the sharp one, right? So I hope you got that correct. Then we have the two, We
have B flat flat and flat. Then you have D G
flat flat and D flat. Yeah, D flat flat,
flat and flat. On your right hand, I think it's the
same one you could use for the sharp two as well. Yeah. Okay. It's just
this that changes. You could have B flat flat, then D flat flat, flat and D flat. Yeah, but I'll probably
demonstration. I'll show you the
three code. Yeah. Okay. Then we have the 33. So you have C flat and B flat. Then you have flat
flat. B flat and flat. Yeah, three. Yeah, three. Assuming you wanted
to play like 123, you could use suspended
code 1234 maybe. Okay, so to the four. That's just theory behind it. As long as you can
use it on the three, this one, you can use
it on the four as well. This is another voicing for
the four you have already. Okay? That's flat,
flat, and B flat. Then you have flat, flat, flat and flat. It's
the same thing. It's just the base
line that changes. Just like for the two, Okay? You could use this voicing
for the four, maybe 1234. Okay. That shouldn't
be complicated. The four, you also have
another suspended. Okay? Not just this one. You could use this as well. Okay? You have flat flat
and then B flat and yeah. That's also another suspended code you could use
with the four, assuming you use different
suspended codes for them. If you play the one
to the force of 1234, okay, that's how it looks like. Flat, flat, flat and
that's how it looks like. Okay. Then I said if you can
use it on the four, you can use it on the
sharp four or five? Yeah. What changes? It's just the sharpen the D. The rest of the
notes are the same. B flat, B flat, C and F. Okay. You can use it for the
sharp four, the flat five. Now that one can be used to substitute maybe a
major two. Okay? We are using the song. Then you could see
that instead of, of the major two or the minus
seven which I showed you, we could use anyway the four. Then for the five, we don't
use a suspended Yeah, because of not differences here. What we like to do, this is the suspended code we probably
have used on the five. It would have looked
something like this. This is how it
would have looked. If we were to use a suspended, we normally don't use
a suspended code. What we do, we use
a major code in. This was the very last code I showed you in the
major code section, the major three of the five. We don't use it as a suspended, we use it as a major flat, flat then you have CEG. Okay? This one always
leads you back to the one, maybe the last part of amazing grace then that. Okay, so it's just
the same coding T, it's normally the 5/3 over
the five. So something like. Okay, so something like that. Okay, so for the five, we
don't use a suspender. But now this suspender that we're supposed to
use on the five, we now use it on the sharp
five or the flat six. Yeah, for the flat six, looks like that D.
Then you have GCD. Okay, Now you see
a song like Alpha. Instead of you just
playing like that, you could suspended the three to four to five. Then to the six, you see another voicing
for the six I told you for the 146.2 I'll be
giving you so many voices. Then then you have the six. So the three. Okay. Okay. So you could do
that. Yeah, this is the flat six or five EC DGD. Then we also have one for
six, looks like that. Flat, flat then flat, flat, flat and flat. As long as you can
use it on the six, you can use it on the sharp
six or the flat seven. You just send the base
line to flat, flat, flat, flat, flat,
flat, flat and flat. You can use it on the
flat seven as well. Then we have our last one, which is the seven
I'm playing it on. A low octavia is the same thing. Flat and then B
flat, flat and flat. Okay, that's the code. Then back to the one
which is also the one. Then we have the two which
is also the two, same code. Then three, which can
also be the four. Then we have the four again, which can also be the four. Then we have the five. I said it's not a suspended,
it's a major. Then we now have
the five flat six, which is now the suspended. Then we have the six,
which can also be seven, or the sharp 67, which can also
practically be the one. It can also be the one
you can use this on the. You could have a flat, flat, flat, flat, flat. There are so many
options for you. That is the basic
theory I showed you. That a yeah, you could do something like I'm
using suspended throughout from the
three to the sharp four to the five to six. Then I continue the see what I'll do
here to the six. I'm using the suspended code again to the seven,
then to the one. You really need to do a lot of practice to know which
suspended code is used to be. Which base line so that
you don't mess up. Yeah, so something like okay. 67. So I just wanted you to know those
two parts A and this one. Or maybe because you
said for the five use a major use that GCE G then to the six with
its own suspended code. To the seven, then back to the. You could even charge for the. Okay, Let's just keep
it straight. Yeah. Okay. That simple work right there, but it's only simple
after you practice, before you get these
things into your system, it's not going to be that easy. So you need to do a
lot of practice and preferably begin practicing with a metronome so that you
have something like, I just passed through the
chromatic scale all the way from a flat back to fly. Yeah. The 122344, again, the four, the five with the major, the 56, the flat
seven or the six. Then the seven, then the
one, and then the one again. Remember the 4.1 I think they have two suspended
codes you could use, you could use this for the one or you could use
this for the four. There are two suspended
codes you could use. That's the basic rule
for suspended codes. That's, let me show you movements you can use now
within the suspended codes. Okay? Now, maybe for the one you're supposed to play this as it is, but what you do, you
separate your middle notes? Yeah. The G on both hands? Yeah, the F, G you start with, the rest remain the same. Okay. Okay. So, you could play such a
movement or to, to, to, to, then to again. G. G. Okay. So the rest of the
nodes remain the same? Yeah. Okay. You have to do it quickly,
so you have to practice. Okay. You could
even do that. Okay. So those are some
of the movements you can use on the one. Let's go to the two. They
like to do that a lot. You see, this is how the
thing should be, okay? This is how it should
be. But what do you do? Especially on your right hand, the G flat to the G to the. So once you land on
the on the flat, you also land on the flat
on the left hand of the. You see that? Okay. Then you back to
the on both hands? Yeah. Okay. Then for the three, just like the one Yeah. You could hear something. So how is that Flat, flat, flat. B flat. Back to flat. Yeah. Okay. So B flat flat. Okay. Then we go to the
four, the same theory. You see that flash to C, then to A to B flash to
back to B flat, Okay? Okay. Or you could even use
it on the S. Okay. Then we have the 55. It's
not a suspended code. No need to for the five, same thing I'm doing. D, then CDC, that's on
the middle fingers. They have to be really
flexible on both hands. Then the six, I'm
using the same theory. Flat, flat, flat back to flat for the seven. Okay. See that flat then D flat back to flat
back to the one. Okay, that's the different one. The one for the
two, then the four, then that's a S567. You could even come up with
movements of your own. The basic theory for suspended cards. I hope you get this very well
because it's going to be going to take a
lot of practice if you are not very familiar
with such movements. Okay, so if I want to
play one to three, so one to the four to the four,
what happens there? It's just using those movements
in your middle notes, Keep the top notes intact. Yeah, that was basic. Let me show you how
else use suspended. If you probably
have a bass player, this is what you
would want to do. Okay, maybe you have a song that goes 25, then 16. Does that the progression
six, then two, then what I did there, that's where the baseline,
the base line is at. What I did with my left hand. Now the suspended code
is on my left hand, It's not on my right
hand. This is what I did. I played an flat suspended four, then I dropped the flat to the all that is still
on this base line, the five, then to the one. Okay, That's flat nine
flat, B flat flat. Start with flat, flat, flat, drop the flat to the G, then back to the one
the song goes to. I don't know if you
have given this voicing for the two already. Flat, flat, Flat, Flat
in here is where you, instead of going to the five, the base will go to the five. But you will do something like, okay, you have this flat flat, that's the four.
Then to the five. B flat flat To the six flat. Yeah. Then something like that, then you have flat
and that's the seven to the basically like
you're going up here. One that's on your right
hand, this is a 4567. Back to the one now
when you and on the six card is
when you play the suspended four on
your left hand. Okay. What happened there? Back to the one. Okay.
On my right hand I have an flat nine card flat. B flat, flat, flat. You see that should be
quite simple, right? Yeah. So that if you have a base player. Okay, let me show you where
else we suspended cords. Let's say the movement you want to a movement
like three to six. Here I'll be combining
both the suspended, the minor and the
diminished codes. Okay. That's the three you have F that's a
suspended for the. On my right hand. I have
a minds start with this, That's a mind on my right hand. Suspended for on my
left hand. Then I'd The D to the C sharp, and I'll drop to the
rest, remain the same. Okay. So here I'm forming like a diminished
card at the center. That's an diminished cord. Okay. Or a D flat
or or B flat. Yeah. Then takes me to the six Okay. Flat, then flat flat, and that's six card. Okay. You can even let go of the top notes so that you remain with the
diminished code alone. Okay? Okay. Then you can let go of the C. I think the see what
happened there. You can keep the top notes
or you can let go of them so that you have the
diminished code alone. Then let's use the same
theory for the six. Okay. So this is what we
start with for the six. B flat, then flat C. Okay. That's an suspended
for have a minor. Yeah. Then to the sharp. While you do that, the B to the, the rest remains the same. You can either keep the
C or let go of them. Okay. Then the two see the voicing B flat
flat, then flat flat. Okay? Okay? Okay? Or you can let go
of the and see the top. No. That's a movement that pretty much combines the minor suspended and the
diminished cords. Okay. Maybe you wanted to play on the 7736 instead of you
just playing cords. What would you do? Play seven, then you do
you see that movement? Then the six. Okay. Maybe you wanted
to play the six. The three to six,
then to the two. Just play the three.
You see the code? I'm using a flat, then I have B flat and okay, I'm bringing the B
flat up from the flat, then use the movement
then to the two. Okay, so that's simple. Then the two for
the 736 looks like. So this is the code
I'm using for the, I'm using F and B
on my left hand. Then I have B and D
flat on my right hand. Okay, bringing the B flat from the air game, then the three. Now you use this code
taught you this voicing, all 736 or maybe the 36. I also this voicing A. That will be pretty much it for the suspended code section. There is a lot you have to practice to get this
into your system here. Because these are things
that you grasp at a go. You have to do a lot of practice for you to get some
of these things. That will be pretty much it for the suspended code section. In the next section,
we look at quotes to codes are actually in
versions of suspended codes. But I do want to join them with the suspended codes because their use is slightly different. I'll see you in
the next chapter.
7. Chapter 6 Quartal Chord Movements: How to use quota codes to
create leaks and movements. Now, a code, like I said, I just mentioned it briefly
in the previous chapters. A code is just an inversion
of a suspended Cod. That's why I started
with suspended codes, then I moved on to quotes. Let's say we have now
the flat suspended two. If the flat suspended two
code looks something like this is how do we get a
Otter code from that? You just invert it just in this flat. Instead
of playing it. Here you play, here you
have some B flat flat flat. Now that is what I call a code, that is exactly what I
call a quarter code. It's always the first in version
of a suspended two code. Okay. As long as you have
a suspended two code, the first inversion
always gives you a tad, and it's always the second
inversion of a suspended Ford. Assuming I have, this is
the flat suspended Ford. If I invert, it becomes this. If I invert it again,
it becomes this. Now it becomes a to code. A quarter code is always
the first inversion of a suspended two code or the second inversion of
a suspended for code. Let me give you all the 12 cards we have because
they are only 12. You only have 12 keys. So let's say starting
from flat here, you have this flat flat
and G flat, right? Then you have this DG,
that's the next one. Then you have B
flat flat and flat. That's the third quarter card
we have on the keyboard. Then you have EA. Okay? The next one is F
and B flat, okay? Then you have D
flat, flat and B. Then you have GC. Okay? Then you have
flat, flat, flat. Then you have E, A, D, then you have B flat and flat. Then you have flat B and E. Then you have CF. And that's the last one here
because we started here, we started at flat. D flat and flat. Okay. So those are the 12. Okay? Okay. So those are
the 12 cards we have. So we're going to be using
any one of them randomly. So let me show you a movement
we like to use using quota. Okay, let me start
with the basic theory, just like I did with
the suspended cord. So we usually have quota cords for certain numbers
on the chromatic scale. And I'm calling it a chromatic scale because we have the sharp on the sharp five or
things like those. It's not just the major
scale. Let me get to it. For the one, we don't use a quad as far as this
theory is concerned. Okay. I don't mean you cannot use a quota
code on the one. You can use a T code on the one. But as far as the
theory is concerned, let's keep the one
as it is then. Now you have the sharp one. For the sharp one, you use
something like this. Okay? So that's a, then
you have GCF, okay? Now you can see if
my Tcd starts from, my base line starts from A. You see that the
baseline is always a ton higher than the
start of your quad. Okay? So if your
Cd starts from G, then the baseline starts from A. It's always a ton
higher, assuming, let's say you wanted a quota
for the two, the B flat. If your base line is B flat, then that means your
utter code starts from a tone lower, flat. Flat and flat. You see that? The baseline is always
a tone higher than the start of your utter code. Yeah, that's the two. Okay, that's two. Then
you have the three. The two looks like B flat flat, D flat, and G flat. I said the flat two or the
sharp one looks like GCF. Then we have the two,
then we have the three, C, B flat flat and flat. Now I decide that's three. Okay, Let's continue then. We have the 444. We don't have one for the four, but we can using other rules. But for this rule we don't
have one for the four D, then you have F
and B flat, okay? Then we don't have
one for the five. As you can see, we don't have codes for the major codes on major scale like the 14.5
that's the four or five. Then we have one for the
five or six, then D, G. Then we have one for the six, that's then flat, flat, flat. Okay? Then we have
one for the seven, that's B flat and flat. Okay? Using this rule without
having any contradictions, we have one for the flat two, we have one for the two, we have one for the three, we have one for the sharp four, we have one for the sharp five, we have one for the six, we have one for the seven,
we have one for the one. We don't have a code. Now, if I decided to do it as I was doing in the
suspended code section, this is how it would look like. We have this for
the seven, right? The G, then B flat flat. You can use this for
the one as well. Okay? If I decided to do what I was doing in the
suspended code section. So you can have this
for the one, okay? So you can have your
one sounding like that. We're using the
same code code for the seven and the one, Okay? The flat, flat, flat. You see that goes
away from the rule. Yeah, the rule means the
rule always says that your baseline is a higher
than the start of your coord. But you see now the the baseline is a ton and a half higher. Okay. That's why I started
with the basic rule, the exception, so these
are the exceptions. Seven, you can use it
for the one, Okay. I'll even show you
how we do this. Yeah, that's the one. Then you have a sharp
one, then you have two. You can use this for
the sharp two as well. The Acord for the two can
be used for the sharp two. Okay? Okay. Then you have the three. You can use this for the
four as well, okay? These are the exceptions. Have flat, flat, flat, flat. Same protocol for the 34. Then you have the
one for the sharp five you can't use
for the sharp four. I mean, you can't use this
for the five, trust me. You don't want to? Yeah,
you don't want to. Let's go to the 66 then. What do we call this? The six sharp five. Then you have the six
that's flat, flat. You can use this for
the six as well. That's flat, flat,
flat, flat. Okay? Then you have the seven. You can use it for the one as well. Okay? So that was the basic, basic rule and its
exceptions, okay? Instead of you voicing the one, always a 97 at nine, like I told in the
first chapter of things, what would you do? You could voice it like this. You see the B flat flat? Okay. Maybe you
wanted to play 1234, like we said in the
suspended code chapter. You could do this. Venae 234, but assuming
I decide to use con, I use the same code for the
7.1 and the same code for the 3.41 flat flat flat. The two D flat and flat three
C B flat flat and flat. Then I use the same thing for the four B flat, flat and flat. Okay, we did this song. I did it somewhere in the
middle of the previous chapter. Even for this, you don't have to use suspended
codes all the time. You could use codes
that was 345. Six. Okay? But this is what you
can do, you can use to codes the one, the three, then B flat flat flat, then you have the C and
B flat to codes there. Then then you have G and C, that's the three, flat
five or the four. The flat six or the five. Then to the six. Okay. You have flat and flat. Flat and flat. Okay. So then you continue. See what I did there. Again, in the previous section
we used suspended cords, so I'm going to
use codes for the 6.7 then you have, then you have flat
flat and B flat. Then the seven, B
flat flat back. I'm voicing it kind of low. Okay? So that's flat flat. Then you have flat flat. B flat flat. Okay? If you want to use suspended,
okay, substitutes. You can always substitute
suspended cords with codes. Okay? That's simple. Now, let me teach you
movements related to the code. Let's say you want
to go 1-4 Okay? Let me give you even this posing so that you may note them down. Okay? This is simple flat, flat, flat, flat, flat, flat. That's just flat at 94. Looks like that. D flat
then flat, flatten. Okay? Okay? Could have flat flat on
your left hand. Okay. So that's the one, the form or like I showed
you in the first chapter, you could have some delay. Okay? So you could still have
that flat and G flat. Then you have flat, D
flattened then to the four. D flat, flat, flat, flat. Okay, so the one to four. Instead of using
all those codes, what else did we cover in
the major code section? Remember this, the six over
on the six over the one, then to the 46, you
could use that, the 66 minor four. Instead of using
that all the time, you could decide to use a code
movement instead of four. Could see that. So I use the Porto code
on my right hand, B flat, then I have flat and
flat on my left hand, I'm bringing the F
up from the flat. I start with the three, the flat and B flat, bring the flat to
the E and the F. That's the one code. Then the four still
using Porto have flat and you have to train yourself how to
play the stretches. Or maybe the D flat flat. Then you have flat,
Flat and flat. Okay? So that's the one. Now what I did here, I played the 1.4 while
playing the base lines. You see what I did?
The one, the four. I don't want to play
the base lines now. I want to keep it root less so that if you have
a bass player, he will play the 1.4 for you. That's how my 1.4
will look like. That's the four, okay? One looks like that, flat, F and B flat. Then my four looks like that. B flat. Flat and flat. Okay? Okay. So, instead of,
we could do this. So that's the one to 41. If I play the base, line 14. Okay. If I keep it ruthless. Do you see what I did with the, with my left hand? Okay. Flat to G2g flat. Okay. So what I did there,
again, flat, flat. Yeah. Okay. So that's one F. Okay. So let's say you're playing, you are the song Amazing Grace. I've been using that song a lot. I think I should do a
demonstration of it at the end, so you see that? Okay, let me show you the part
where I want to insert a pot, then. There you see, it's like we're moving
from one to the four. So that's one still
on the one then then we're supposed
to go to the four. Now you see that? Instead of me just
playing that, Okay? So instead of me just playing
that, what would I do? I would now insert the. Okay. See that? So that's the one. Okay? See that? Quads flat and B flat. The B flat flat flat. Okay? Now, I want to teach you
another quod that you can insert in the,
immediately after. Immediately after you do this, you could use another
set of Quds as well. Okay? So that's what
I'll teach you because the song goes like then. Now listen to this, you see that that's another
set of quota codes. Okay? So this is how
that set looks like. You have flat then GCF, okay? Flat GCF, then you have C.
Then you have B flat flat. Okay? Flat on your left hand. Then you have GCF. Then you have C on
your left hand. Then you have B flat flat. Okay, let's play the song. I'm just playing the melody. I'm not inserting any codes. Then you see now I used the two sets of potter
codes I used to this then. Yeah, so that should be
pretty simple, right? Yeah, repeat the same thing, so I'll just play the melody of the song and insert
the Oto cord. So I need to insert the song potter another set. Codes again then. Okay, so basically that's it. I just demonstrated it. Where you, okay, so
when you want to play, probably you want
to create melody. It's also good that you create
a melody in form of codes. Okay, so I think that
that's quite simple. The one to four, remember this is supposed
to be a one code. Okay? Then this is supposed
to be a four code. Now, for the next set we did, we did D flat, then GCF, okay? Then we did then flat flat. Now this one naturally is supposed to be
a five code. Okay? If you play it like
this, the baseline is supposed to be a five, okay? Okay, let me play it higher so that you
hear this correctly. Flat, then GCF. Okay? See that? Then this
one, the next one, which is then B flat flat is
supposed to be a one code. Okay? This is 51. Instead of you playing,
what would you do? You would play then the one. Okay? Five. Okay.
So I think that, that should be good for you. Now, the other way I
would like you to, to know how to use
the quads is to insert what I call spoilers. I just like to
call them spoilers because they bring
a particular sound. It's not even a
musical. Okay? There is a particular sound they bring. Okay? That is very different from how you
would use a normal. Let's say if you are playing, you wanted to play
seven to three to six using quota codes. Okay? Using quota codes
except for the six. Let's say we use quota
codes for the seven and the three and then we use no
more code for the six. This is, see how you
seven looks like seven. Then the 36, I think I've
taught you this voicing before. This is flat, major seven. Then on your left hand you
have C and flat, okay? Okay, so seven,
then 173, then six. Now see that sounds good, but let's make it sound
a little bit fancier. Okay, how do we make it
sound a little bit fancier? I'm going to add a
particular note, let's say on the seven
that can be added, Either on my right
hand, on my left hand. Okay. We can always add the note on my right hand,
on my left hand, that note, which I
like to call spoiler, is usually the third, the major scale of
your base line. Now, for example,
I'm playing A 736. My seven is the base line. What note am I going to insert? The E I'm going to insert should be the third on
the major scale of G. That's why you
need to, at least, even if you don't know
how to play in all keys, at least the major
scale of all, Okay? So that's the third major
scale is B. I will add this, not somewhere in between, okay? Instead of me just playing, that's the B flat flat. I will add a note. I can add it on my left hand. On my right hand for this case, because the left hand would
sound a little bit too low. You see that? Let me add it on my right hand. See how now the code looks like. Then I have. B flat flat. I just added that. You see that? Now, that sounds a little
bit more fancier than this. Let's add the note that if I was playing
this a little bit higher, this is how I would
voice it here. You see that? Then I still have the
B on my left hand so that I can just play the normal code on my
right hand, B flat flat. You can either add it on your right hand or
on your left hand, depending on the depth. You don't want to add a
note that sounds too deep. You don't want a lot
of notes getting crowded on your lower end. You
don't want something like. You see that? That doesn't sound very appealing if I would
have done this. See, it doesn't sound like
a very fancy voicing. So I need to look
for a higher octave to insert the B note, okay? So this is your own judgment.
It's for you to weigh. Does this not sound good on the lower end or
on the higher end? If it sounds good
on the lower end, then go ahead, insert
it on your left hand. If it sounds good
on the higher end, just add the note
on your right hand. So if I was playing
the D from here out, I inserted the B
on my right hand. If I was playing it from here, I inserted it on my left hand because now
it doesn't sound too low. Yeah, that's my seven. You know what we're going to
do when we get to the three. This is what we
have for the three. You have C, B flat,
flat and flat. What am I supposed to do? Add, not to spoil the
code, spoil the cord. The note I'm going to
add is the third on the major scale of what is
the third on the major scale of the third is, you see now I added
it left hand so that then B flat flat, flat. Okay, now let's try the
736 using the spoiler. Six. Now if you play like that, you sound pretty much
close to this professional 36 is that sounds
very good, right? You can always add
the spoiler anywhere. Let's say you want it to go from the one to the P one to the 211. Let's use the one. That's the one. Then to the. That's flat. Flat, flat. And that's the two code
I'm using for this. 0.1 add nine, the two. Where do we add the spoiler? What I did, I added a
flat or a C sharp note on my right hand so that I have flat And I could even
add it on my lower end. But if it sounds too low,
I'd prefer to add it one. That's how it would sound if
I added the flat down here. But since I think
it sounds too low, why not add it on
the right hand, that C, D flat. And that makes you sound a
little bit more professional. Okay, you can add the spoilers. Let's say the flat five. The flat five looks like
this, the sharp four. Where do we add the spoiler? You could add it
on your left hand, you see that D and G
flat then, and B flat. These things help you
sound a little bit good. Let's say you wanted even
to play a six to two. What do you do? You take the D. This was the D, F, then flat, and D flat. Then because I'm
playing it high, I can add the E on my left hand, then flat flat, and B flat. This can lead me to the two. I already gave you this, 0362. You see that you can add spoilers anywhere you
want to add them. As long as your spoiler is the type of your best licenses, I gave you the basic theory, you can try work on
them. That's simple. I'll be giving you exercises, actually this at the end, but for now, that's
all I will teach you for the cord section. Time doesn't allow
me to continue. That will be make sure you check out our
exercises at the end. Yeah, I'll see you
in the next chapter.
8. Chapter 7 Augmented Chords: Okay, welcome to
our last chapter. That is our last teaching
chapter for this course. It's going to be our
last teaching chapter. For the next chapter,
we're going to be looking at exercises and application of all these
things that we've learned. We looked at a codes in
the previous section. In this section seven, we're going to look at
augmented just a little bit, the basic theory to just play, make you sound more
professional and all that, so I'll just get right into it. We are in the key of flat. This is what an augmented
code looks like. We have a major code,
which is a flat. And flat then if you
want an augmented code, like I've always said, you
just sharpen the fifth flat. And apparently if you
invert this code, you will get the augmented code. If you invert it again, you get the augmented code just as
they are written here, flat. And that means we have four
sets of augmented code. This is the first one,
the flat C and E, Okay? The second one looks
like this, the flat and. Okay. Then we have
the third one, the B flat, DNG flat. Then we have the last set, which is the B flat G. Okay? So those are the
four sets we have. If you invert the
flat augmented code, you will always get the
augmented code, okay? If you invert the
augmented code, you will get the augmented code. If you invert the
augmented code, you come back to the
flat augmented code. Basically, that's what an
augmented code is like. Did I talk of
suspended and codes? The augmented code has pretty much almost
the same theory. I normally like to
use it for the flat. Okay. The flat two or the P one, The flat three or the Sp two. I like to use it
for such purposes. So I'll just teach
you the basic theory. Now like I said, I like to use it for the flat. I'll start with the flat two or the sharp
one, which is A. In this instance
it's actually A. As long as my base line is A, I'm going to use it
either augmented code and a augmented code
looks like that's A. Then we have B and
E flat, okay? Okay. Assuming maybe I wanted
to go to five to one. Now, you mostly use
this in Jersey setting, songs that look Jersey or sometimes you can
use it even in gospel, but you just play around it. What you have to
do, say was moving 5-1 I'm playing five like that with flat augmented
code on my right hand. Okay. That's flat, flat. Okay. The flat flat on my left hand and then
to the one as a nine. Yeah. Like I've
always insisted flat, flat, flat, Flat, Flat, flat. Yeah. What would you do? I would
maybe play the five there. Then I would pass
through the flat two or the sharp one
back to the one. Just see that I basically use this
augmented code, the augmented code with
the base line G, B flat. But I extended it looked
like a G, B flat. And again, I just did this, then I did this, and I did this. Okay? So if in fact it was a just setting, you would actually
finish with such a code. Flat, flat. That's flat. B flat flat, and
that's flat major 7.9 you would hear
things like, Okay. Or maybe you could even add the sharp A and D flat. Then you have the back
to the one, okay? You would have such things
that the flat two to the one, I normally like to use
it in a downward format. The next one is
the F three to the flat three, back to the two. The flat three back to
the two, looks like this. Okay? B on left hand, then you have A flat. And on your right hand, you could even add the third of B. I like to call them spoilers. You have flat, then
you have a D flat. And here, do this. Let's say you wanted to play three to six to the two, okay? Okay. Just a simple, That's a five over the three. Okay? B flat flat, then over the C,
that's a flat at nine. Over the And flat, that is the two. B flat flat. Then on my
right hand I have C, D flat flat. Okay. Okay. Okay. So that's the 362. What would you do
now with having in mind that augmented code? So you do the three, then instead of
going to the six, now you'd play this
augmented call. Okay? So instead of going to the six, you just play this augmented
call to the flat three B, then a flat, then to the two. I used a different
voice for the two. I have B flat flat, then I have a flat and flat. Okay. You could
even use the Sure. Okay? Even such a voicing. A B flat, flat,
flat, flat, flat. That's three to the
flat. Three to the two. Instead of going to the six, Even the 36, there is this 362 movement that
a lot of players like 0. That's the first
code, C, B flat flat. Then you have B flat, D, okay? That's the major two
over the three, okay? Then this code, then flat, flat, that's over the six. Then you have flat, flat, flat. Then you have a flat
and flat, okay, It looks like, okay, look, that's how it looks like. Now, instead of
going to the 362, you could again
use the augmented, have that instead of going
to the six like this, just go to the augmented,
the flat three. Okay? So then you could
have this, okay? Then then the B, then a D flat, the two. You can always have
that. Yeah, the 32. That's how it works. It's basically that simple
and straightforward. The next one, the
21, then flat 32. The other one I like to use
is the flat five or four. That is when I'm coming
back to the four. I'll give you a
progression of 5514. Okay. So people like to
use that progression? Yeah. Okay. So this site looks like, so let me give you
that kind of code. I have flat F and G flat. Then I have flat,
B flat, D flat, and K, That's my five. Then I'll just give you a
simple code that's flat. Then on my right hand, I have a flat diminished seventh
code that's flat and flat. Okay, Then to the form, mine looks like
that I have a flat, flat and on my right hand, then I have flat and flat on my left hand,
something like that. Instead of you just
playing the 514, I want to substitute the one
with a certain code, okay? Just the five. I'm just using different
voicing, okay? So don't worry about
my five voicing. Then I'll do
something like this. Then I'll go to the four. This is the code I used,
the five to the flat. Five to four, instead of 51, I basically use the 54. What's that code?
What's that codes? On my left hand, I have D and G flat. On my right hand, I have this
augmented called E flat. For the case where I
played the five flat 54, I just extended it so that
I have flat and C. Okay? Okay. So I have
something like that. I played with A D and G
flat on my left hand. Okay, So here is my new
voicing for the five. I'm just giving you different
voicing for the 514. Okay. Flat, flat. Okay? Then I have B flat
flat and flat. Okay? Instead of, you can also
use I basically inverted. Instead of playing like this, I just play it like
this. That's five. Then to the flat five, that's the code I. D flat flat. And then to the four. D flat and flat. Then I have flat, flat. Okay? You have five to four. That should be simple enough. So you could substitute
that for the five. That's simple. Could substitute
that, you use it. I like to use the augmented
codes in a backward formula. Okay. Then the other
one I have is flat six. Yeah, the flat six
leading to the five. Okay? The leading back to
the flat that's on the, of a flat, flat six. Normally use it with
such an augmented code. Okay? So you use it with such an augmented
code that's flat and B flat, that's a augmented code. I use it with the E. You
could even add the spoiler, the flat, then flat flat. That's quite simple.
Do I use this? Let me pick a simple song. So he has done great things. I'll
just pick that song. Yeah, then, so I don't even have much
interest in the first line. I have much interest
in the first part. So then the next is what I'm doing
in the second part. So the second part goes. So I'm basically
using my augmented code to cover my melody. So I'll start with
the two code, Okay, so that's B flat and flat, then I have D flat and B flat. Okay, Then I'll go to
my augmented code. And flat then D and G flat. B flat, yeah, on my right hand. Then that to the
five, E flat flat. B flat, then D flat and B flat. Okay. So it takes you, if you want to go to the, from the two to the five
and you want to pass, you want to insert a
passing card there. You just insert that cos that's the whole song, augmented card. And did you how to
play that song at the end of by the
end of the course? I'll just demonstrate
it in the next section, but that's what I
wanted you to get. The six to five. Okay? Or the five.
B to the five. Then the one should
be the seven, and that's the flat
seven down to the six. Okay. The seven down to six, what do you use for
the flat seven? I think it's pretty obvious. Now, flat then you have flat. I mean, flat flat. Okay. So that's and cord use it with the
then what you do, you add the B flat again so that you have flat
flat then you have flat. Okay. Assuming you wanted to go from the seven to
the three to six. Like that part. That part. Okay. I just lay a 73. This is how my seven
would look like. I have F and B flat, then I have D, F, AC. Okay. Then this is how my
three would look. I have C, E, and B flat, then I have flat and B flat. Okay. Flat, G and B flat. Then I have and flat. Then I have C flat flat. Or maybe flat, flat, flat. That's the 736 I have. Instead of the 736, you can do the seven to the
flat seven to six. This is how it would look like. Just stick, stick to
my seven code then. Okay. Then to my flat seven, then to my 67, Cod maintained. Then instead of
going to the three, I go to the flat
seven that's flat, flat, flat and yeah, I've already tout this cord, the six, and I'll
voice my six that way. So that's flat flat, then flat G and B flat. Okay. Seven flat 76. That should be quite simple. An advanced player. Yeah. So instead of playing
seven all the time, you just okay that movement. Yeah, it looks something like this. B flat flat. Or you could play the
whole two B flat and flat, the next one is flat. Or you could play the
whole one flat flat. And the. These two fall at the same
time, the F and B flat. Then you keep switching
from the F to the G. The B flat doesn't move gestures, it's another
way of voicing. This one isn't that simple. Those are basically
the augmented codes I wanted to show you
in this chapter. Simple. I like to use them
in a downward format. There are some augmented
codes which you can use, let's say the three card you
can use a augmented cord on. Yeah, maybe a flat
and then back to the six can lead you to
the four can lead to a augmented cord flat and you can use
it on the C as well. Take six. That's quite simple.
It's straightforward what you normally like to
do to make it sound better, instead of you just playing a
normal augmented code flat. And you just sharpen the
C to the flat so that you have D flat flat and then
you have C and B flat. On your left hand
you have C, B flat, then D flat flat and C. Okay. We call it a augmented seven, flat nine, something
of that sort. Yeah, you can do that. Take you to the seven, to the three, that B flat flat, flat and to the seats. Okay. So you can
always use that. You can always use that
to take you to the seats. Let's say you want
to play a major to. I've been using the song,
I'm using grace a lot. So like I said, we are using a major tune, basically nah instead
of you following the now, then the major two. Use that code. That's
flat and flat, then I have flat, G and B flat, okay? Or you can even let go of the F so that you
have B flat and flat. Then you have flat and B flat. Now you want to make
this an augmented code. What do we do? We just your first three
flat and drop all of them by Amt looking for
this augmented cord, DG flan fla plus the B. The left hand remains. Okay. Okay. So it's just
start with this then is just a drop for me. Okay. Let's do that
on another number. Let's say the six A that's flat, then B flat, D, and then you'll just your first three notes
on your right hand, that to the S. Okay. The augmented codi. Then you can take it to the To is just a way of making
them sound better, like adding more notes. That it's just that simple. It's what I call resolving. Yeah, You can use the
augmented codes to resolve. You resolve from this
then takes you to the two to the five. Basically basically resolving. Yeah, you don't
resolve everywhere, but it's good for you
to know how to resolve, especially on the sixth code. Okay, That should
be quite simple. It's all about solving, it's all about creating
this augmented codes, learning how to extend them. Okay, I'll give you an exercise relating to
what I've taught you. It will be simple, let
me just highlight it. The progression will be, then I lose 5537676. Then I'll have something
like a two, that's a 332. I'll have the, it's just an exercise to help you
master where to use this. I'll just teach you
this at the end. I just ask you to
get prepared for it. I think it's the next chapter. Then you have the, just an exercise to know how
to use the augmented codes, but for now that, that's the last movements
based on augmented codes. That's the last chapter
I'll be teaching. In the next chapter
we do exercises, okay, So that you can put
all these into context. You can know where to
use which, which code. That will be it for this lesson. I'll see you in
the next chapter.
9. Chapter 8 Song Example Amazing Grace: So, welcome to chapter eight of our co. Like I
said previously, chapter eight is going
to be a demonstration. I've been using this song
a lot during this course. Amazing Grace here. I'll just teach you the
breakdown of the whole song. I'll just break down
the whole song for you. I'm going to be using some of the tools that you've
learned up to this point. Maybe when you are more
conversant with those tools, you can come up with your
own version of the song. But this one is quite simple. It's more of just
following the melody, but bringing in some codes to help you follow
the melody movements. I just started with 51. Yeah. Okay. I'm using an electric
piano for this. I thought it would
sound much better. Okay, so something like that. On your left hand, that's
the B flat to the flat, that's a two to five. When you land on the flat,
you have such a code. So that's A flat, C sharp and okay. Then to that, that's flat, flat. Then you have G. B
flat and flat. Okay. That's the one. Okay. That was the next I did
something like that. Yeah, that's are
supposed to be a three. The base line is a three. The movement starts from
the four to the five. C sharp, D flat, E. Okay? So that's B flat flat
and flat on your right. And that's a quote code. Yeah. Okay. Then the next, so that's F sharp, then F and B flat, so that's again another quarter
cord on your right hand. Okay. Then to then B flat, flat and flat. Okay? Okay? So from the beginning
then, then the next. Okay? So that's C sharp, then GCF, then C, then B flat flat. Okay? I'm more leading
into the middle. Not always. Yeah, It's like I'm starting
from flash to C and then from flash to B flat. Yeah, So then from there. Okay. So, okay, so the movement looks
like so you have C, then you have G, B flat sharp, and E. Okay. That's a diminished
seventh code. It's a diminished seventh
code from the three to six. Then you have C sharp, and yeah. Then the next code
looks like that, D. Then you have flat, BDF, looks like that. That then B flat sharp, E and G. Then we have US
code which looks, you could have something
like it looks like this. I have flat and on my left hand then
I have G and B flat. On my right hand, I
mean A and B flat, but I'm always leading
into the G from the twice. Or maybe you could
play such a code. So you could play the flat, flat and flat on your left hand. That's six. That movement was to lead
you to the 63, then the 45, then to the six, which now looks like now the basis could play
something instead of 3456. For my case, I did 3176, I did something like, Okay. That is also acceptable
for the base player. You can also do that with your left hand if you don't have a bass player or maybe 2176.
Yeah, that always works. Okay. But I like the 3176 more. You can play a straight one or you can play it
as a major seven. Okay. I just did this movie. Then then to the two, Let's flat flat then flat. Then what I would do that start with the
one that's flat, flat, flat, flat on
your right hand. Then you'll drop
the flat down to the flat, then to the
then to this code. That's D, E, G, and C. So that's a major
three over the two. Yeah. Okay. Then that is what
I call resolving. Yeah. Because you
start with this, then you resolve to this. Okay. So Okay. So okay, so that's flat, flat C sharp. Then you have a flat and flat. Yeah, that's the five code. From the two to five. Yeah. Then somewhere there I did a moment a movement
which looks like 66, that's flat. Then
on my right hand, I have a flat major, 7.9 That's a flat, flat. Flat G. Then to the two. That's then yeah, I did something like that. Flat and then B flat and I'm
leading into the from the. Then you have a flat flat, then you have B flat, then C sharp flat and B flat. Yeah, Then to the one, she looks like that. Flat flat. Then flat flat and Okay, six to the two, then to the one. Okay. The 5671. So that was just to lead me
to the next part. So the all of the first part looks like then, then, then, then I maintained
it to the one, so once you learn on this one, you change it to this again. You have A sharp, then you have a B flat, C sharp, and flat, it's called resolving. I'll
resolve twice, actually, I'll start here then to this still on the
flat sharp then. So that's the major
six over the one. You could even use the
six if you wanted. The six is A so that, and which once you come out of this,
just play the C and B flat. The same movement we
did in the first part. The B flat flat flat. The same movement. C sharp. Gcf. C flat flat. Then the same movement, the same diminished
seven movement. Okay, this is the same movement. I've broken this down just
like a few seconds ago. So once I got to the six,
I did something like. Okay, so then I just went
back to the previous code. Just went back to the
diminished seventh code. So that's G. B flat, C sharp, E and G, then
back to the sixth. So that's flat, flat, flat. Okay. So that code
we start with, that you have B flat flat, then C, then you drop
the down to the. Okay, then you finish, That's coded flat, flat, flat, then C sharp, B flat. That's a five to one. Okay? To the one that's
flat, flat, flat. B flat, flat and flat. Yeah, that's the all of
the song actually. That's. I played it. So then three to the 14, then that's the three. Then the six, then to the five. Remember that movement?
The six to 5671. Then I remained on the one. Okay. Repeat the same thing again. Then this movement. Okay. Then the movement
I was doing to separate the first part from the second part, I
was something like. Okay. So that's a 2345671. Okay. So you have that you have B flat,
then you have flat. That's a two? Yeah. Then you have G, You have flat flat,
five over the three. Yeah. Then you have a six
over there over the four. That's flat. Then flat. Yeah, that's just a flat. Nine flat. Then you have B flat. Flat and Okay. Flat. Then you have D
and flat the B flat. Then you have flat and flat. Then back to the one.
Then you have A flat. B flat, flat and flat. On your right hand, the
movement looks like 2345671. That's the movement. You have to practice it so
that you can do it on tempo. There is a practice
track for this. You have to to practice the movement so that you
can do it on temple. So it has to be that fast. Yeah. Especially the code changes on your left and you really have to
get them very well. Yeah. So if I played the first part
leading to the second part, it's just the same thing, So okay then, okay, then 62567. You have to remember
that movement then to the one that's the four. Then repeat the movement again. Okay. Then, okay,
then that movement. Okay. Then you repeat
the whole thing again. I could teach you that
movement. On the left hand. In the first part,
I started with the 44 to the sharp five
for the second part, so that it doesn't
get monotonous, you could start
now from upwards. So you could start from the
seven down to the flat six, that's to the sand
the play in that. That's the B flat flat and Okay. Okay. Instead of coming
from all the time, it could come down
from same thing. I'm just giving
you extra actually this might not exactly
being the trucks. Okay. Then to the three
to 67, looks like that. That's and B flat, then FC. Okay, I'm just giving you tools so that
you can come up with your own version
of the song that. C, E, B flat, then C sharp sharp, and B flat. Yeah, that's flat flat, then C flat, G and B flat. Okay. So then then, okay, that's the same movement. So then the that's again the five to the one. Yeah. As you can see,
the movement is long. It actually starts from the two, but I I don't have to
start from the two. I can start from the five. Okay. The whole movement is the
one we've done, So the two. But in other circumstances, I don't have to start
from two to the one. Just start from the five. I can just decide
to start from here. Okay. I don't have
to start from, okay, Maybe I was playing then I can just do that from the five to the one I
don't have to go back to. Okay, so then, then, so I played the
whole cycle twice, and then I repeated the last
part for the third time. That's a part I repeated
for the second time. Okay, that's the whole song. I pretty much broke down
what I was playing. But you can always come up with your own
version of the song. You don't have to play
it exactly as I did. But the practice track
somewhere down here, I think it only has a
baseline and it doesn't quite have a T. Because
this Or song is just, I used the same track to
demonstrate this course. The count is still
the same song. You can use all
those tools to come up with your own
version of the song. Mainly for this song, I used the quo codes. I used a lot of diminished
code movements, I used a lot of combinations. Just like I was saying this, I didn't use a lot
of augmented codes, but for the rest they
were good enough. Like the major six or
the one minor maybe. Okay, and I'm also trying to teach you how
to fill up your codes, especially when you are playing
with an electric piano. You don't want your codes
to sound very open. Yeah, that's why I'm
insisting on such voicing. You have to make it a nine. Yeah, you have to make it
nine. Something like this. As in your code
has very complete. You have to find all those nodes to fill
up your code working. It has to sound very complete. Don't make your codes sound
as if they are not complete. That will be pretty much
it for this lesson. In the next one will be probably
looking at another song. Then I'll give you the
exercise on augmented codes. That will be for the chapter.
I'll see you in the next.
10. Chapter 9 Song Example Augmented Chords: Welcome to chapter nine of our
course on the key of flat. Like I told you, I'll give you an exercise on augmented codes. This is simple and
straightforward. It's exactly
following the theory, the basic theory of
augmented codes, where your base line
is a tone higher than the start of the augmented. Here is the progression. So
I'll just show you the codes. This should be short just so we don't need to do
a lot of explanations. I started with a 234. Okay, The count 66 counts, then it starts with a 234. I decided to use that. Don't ask me why that's flat, flat then sharp and C sharp. Okay. That's my two to three, looks like that, that B
flat, then flat, flat. Okay. It's flat, major
79 sharp, major 7923. It's actually the same thing. Okay. Turn to the four, that's C sharp, flat. Okay. Then flat, flat. Okay. Then, okay, so that's two G, six to seven, then you
land on this code, that's sharp, then F flat. Okay? So the flat five. Okay. 234, then the flat
five, then to the four. Here I'm using an augmented
code on my right hand. So I have, then I
have B flat and. Okay. Okay. Okay, then you play
this as the melody. Then flat, then B flat flat. That's a 5/33 sharp, B flat. Okay? Then I have
a flat and okay, that's a flat seven leading
into the six, that's flat. Then flat B flat, it looks like the B flat, C sharp. That's another augmented code. Then to the two. You can use the char voicing
for the two, I think I, different voices. Flat flat, F flat,
that's the two. Then to this flat,
then sharp flat, then to the five, That's flat, flat, B flat, then C sharp, and flat, then C sharp. Then you have B flat, then to the 179, that's flat, Flat,
flat and flat. Okay? Okay. That's the whole thing. 23, then F543, then F76. Okay. Then flat 32, flat 32, then flat 65, then F21. Okay. So then you could play this. Could actually play this,
could actually play B. And then you could play the flat to flat, flat, flat. Then in the next part, for the first 2 bars, I was doing that, Yeah, the 234. Okay. Then then in the next part, I started with that, instead
of starting with the 234, now I started with
flat, that's D, then C, E flat, C. Okay. So, I started with
that, that's still an odd entered on my
right hand. Okay. Instead of I started
with then to the four. The other remains the same, flat 54, instead of the four, maybe you could use
it then the seven, you could still use the seven, the F, then the B flat. Okay. The rest remains the same. Seven flaw flat 21. Okay? So you could even
play that, that's the six. Down to the flat five flat D. Play the D together
with the shop. Or if you wanted to
play Truth Less, you don't have to play
the D. You could actually start from A down to the sky. So you leave this
for the best play. Okay. The rest remains the same. Okay. Could even do this. Okay. So that's 17655. Okay. So basically
that's who exercise, I was just giving you
this exercise so that you get familiar with placement
of augmented codes. The whole thing goes like 234 flat 543 flat 76, the flat 32, flat 65, flat 21. That's for the first 2 bars. Then for the third and fourth
bar starts the flat 54. Okay? Then the same probation
flat five, then seven. Use the same augmented
code, 73, flat 76. Okay? Like I said, you could
even use this flat three, the flat then flat
flat three, then 22. I've broken down the
flat 6521. Okay. That's pretty, the
whole exercise. It is just an exercise of mostly augmented code so that
you learn the placement, the practice track is available after six months
he sat on the two. Okay. That's it. That's it. For the augmented code section. That was just a small practice. Will break down another
song for the next chapter. Okay. Maybe I'll give
you another exercise, but for now that will be for this chapter. I'll
see you in the next.
11. Chapter 10 Song Example 2 5 1 Exercise: Okay, so welcome to, this should be chapter
nine or ten of, this should be chapter ten of our course on the key of flat. Now for this course,
I just decided to give you some 251 exercises, okay, I'm starting slow. And then we begin to
like double time. The code changes, begin
to be a lot faster. So this one is just to train how to implement
the code changes fast. Okay, I'll just go straight
into what I played. I started with 1765, the 43 to 671. That's the progression. Okay. 17653. Okay. I'll just start with first, that's flat, B flat,
then flat flat, That's flat at nine, that's one, B flat flat, B flat. I'm leading into the G from F, that's 76 flat. Then you have B flat
flat, flat six. Then you have five like that, let me just keep it that way. You have flat and sharp, then you have flat, sharp and later that's
54 sharp and flat. Then you have and
latish seven, really. That's just played
five of the three that flat then I have B flat and then I played
my two this way. I played it like A
major, A, B flat, dominant seven, you have B flat, then you have A flat. D and flat. Yeah. Then I use the
suspended codes for 676c sharp and flat. Then I have A flat. C sharp. Flat and flat. Yeah, that's the six. Then to the seven F, then B flat and B flat. Okay. That's the
seven then. Okay. You start with this on the one, you start with flat, then B flat, C sharp, and flat. Start with that, then
you resolve back to you. A flat flat. Then B
flat flat and flat. That's flat at nine. Okay? Okay? You can
even start with that. You can start with B flat, C sharp, flat and flat, so that the only thing
you'll do is drop the C sharp to the C and drop
the F to the flat, Okay? Okay. I think that sounds more
complete than just, Okay. Okay. Basically that's the
progression of the song. I'm only adding passing
calls in between. That's why I call
it a 254 exercise. Okay. It doesn't look
like 254 for now. Yeah. 7654, then three, then 26. Okay. Yeah. That's what I did for the
first I did it for two cycles. Yeah, for the first 2 bars. Now, for the next 2 bars, this is what I did. Okay. So one, then I did
a I did a 36. Okay. So I went to the one instead of just going to the
seven, then to the six. I used that three
as a passing code. This is how it looks like. On maintain the
one that's a flat, flat then flat flat, then I'll give you two
voicings for the seven, that's the rootless one. You have B flat and D.
Then you have AC, okay? B flat, D and C. That's
for the rootless voicing. Then you have the, this one is done
with the root now. I, F, and B flat, then DFC. Okay? You could either use
this because anyway, the truck has a baseline.
You don't have to play this. You could just play that DFC. Then on your left hand
you have F and B flat. That's the 71. The seven. That's three, it's a
rootless voicing as well. Okay? You could have
that flat and B flat, then you have flat, Flat and C. Okay. You start with your
17366, looks like that. You have flat and then
you have flat and flat. Okay. That's the
rootless voicing. You have one, then the 736. Okay. Let me deal with those. Who would like to
play the root one? We have already looked at 73, so it's just the E, B flat. Then you have the flat
flat and B flat. Yeah. Okay. Then you have the six
that flat and flat. Then you have C
flat, G and B flat. Okay. That's the 1736. For those who like to play
the root, it will look like. Okay. For those
who play rootless. Okay. So that's the
only difference that some are playing
us, some are not. Depends on whether you
have a bass player or not. Okay. So that's the 1736, then I went to the 514
straight, so five. Okay. Let me give you
different voicing. The other time I gave you this, you could still use that,
but now let's use this. You have flat and sharp. Okay? Then you have a flat, flat, C sharp, and sharp. And I mean, you could
even ignore this. You don't have to play that. You have flat splat
sharp and five, then that's flat, flat, then you have sharp and flat. Okay, that's the one. Then one. Okay. Maybe if you'd like to plate rootless, you could
have something like. Okay. You could have that,
if you play Ruthless. You could have F sharp, then A flat flat, C sharp. And okay, the best
player will play this note, see that voicing? Okay, that's a
really nice voicing. Five, you could have that flat, then sharp and flat, okay? That's the one, the best
player will play that. Okay? Five, then one, okay, for those who play
with the root, okay? Then then to the four. I maintain the four. Maybe
that C sharp and flat, then C and flat. Okay? So the 176, then the
five, see that? 514. Okay. Then from there I
went to the 362. Okay. So I use that, I just made five. I made my five major seven, so that I have an E
flat major seven. So I have B flat, D flat and have C and G on
your right hand. Okay. On your left hand. I mean, there that we
are on your right hand. So you have a D flat and Okay. D flat and then you have And flat on your
left hand. Okay. So so the three, then to the two that's flat
and then flat D and F. Okay. Then I went to the six
like in the first. Okay. So that's the second bar bar goes the third and
the fourth bar. Yeah. So the first
and second bar, it was just okay, so that's the first
and second bar. The third bar. This is
what I introduced now. 73651. Okay. Then the 62.6 you see now I'm introducing
to 51 passing codes. That's for the third
and fourth bars of the practice truck, which is available for
the fifth and sixth bars. We are still making this
a little bit faster. Okay. Still started
with the one, then the seven, you
could use the seven, or maybe, let me give you
another voicing for the seven. You could have,
you have F and B, then you could have
B flat and C. Okay? But also like to voice it rootless. You could
voice it this way. Okay? The G and B, then B flat, and Servicing. Let me give you a three voicing. Is that the B flat, then flat flat C and D flat 736. Okay? Or maybe you have flat
and C on your left hand, then you have flat G and B
flat on your right hand. Okay. 17362. I played 23 over the two. I have B flat flat, then I have E255, that flat sharp, then B
flat sharp, and flat five. Then you could use
that flat sharp. Then I have CF and flat. Okay. 514. Let me give you a new
voice for the four. Sp flat and then flat flat 51. Then from there I
went to the seven. Okay, I used F, then B flat and B flat. Okay, So that's the seven. You could use that voicing
then to the three. Okay? So that's G, then
B flat, D, and F. That's the three. Let me just play from the beginning so
that we don't get lost. I started with one, then 36, then to five, then
one, then four, then seven, then 36. Okay. Maybe you could use that.
That's flat then sharp, sharp and okay, that's six. B flat flat. Then you have a flat and flat. So that's the two, the
simple six like we did in the first
section, seven, okay? One, this is how the fifth
and sixth bar looks like. The 1736 to 51, then 736, then two, then 671. Okay. You see we are adding passing codes in between
here. That's the third bar. The fifth and sixth bar. Yeah, I was doing 2
bars for each section. Yeah. 1.2 simple. 3.4 we added a few
passing codes. 5.6 we've added others now. 7.8 we'll still add others. So this is how 7.8 look like. I started seeing seven. We're supposed to
go to the seven, but I passed through the flat. Five D, F sharp. Then I have C and B flat. Okay, that's the 515, then seven, you could
use this voicing, still remember this
voicing, FB flat then. And then let me give you
another voicing for the three. Looks like three B flat. Then you have C sharp
sharp and flat 73. That's flat, flat. The, and B flat. Okay. Then that's the other voicing for the two
B flat and flat. Then I have D and B flat. Okay? And I'm leading
into the D from the C. Okay? So it's one flat. 573. Okay. The 62. Okay. Five, you could
use such a voicing. You have flat, sharp, flat, B flat, and C sharp. Okay? Flat, sharp, flat, flat. And up on your left hand, then you have sharp B flat and C sharp on your right hand. Okay? Then what you will do on your right hand
is just drop these two. Drop the B flat to the, drop the C sharp to the C, then you win with that code. Okay? Then you could use such a
voicing, you have sharp, flat, flat, and C, that's a root less,
that's a one. Okay? If you like to
play with the root 51, you could still use that. Okay. That's the flat. Flat and Okay. If you'd
like to play root less, just introduce the sharp. Okay. The 51. Okay, then the four. Let me give you
another voicing I like to use for the foil. Looks like that. You
have a sharp flat then. Flat, flat and Okay. Yeah. That's the four
voicing. Let's recap. So you have one then. 573. Okay. Then 62. Okay. Five, then you have one. You could even have that on
your left hand flat. Yeah. Okay. Then four. Okay. From the four,
we go to the seven. Again, that's GF, the B flat. B flat. Okay. Then
you have the three. That's then you have
D and B flat on six. Okay. You have flat flat, then you have flat. G and B flat. Okay. Okay. Then that's the two
B flat, flat, flat. Okay. Then I did something like, okay, start with that F, F, then flat, then B flat, then I have flat
and B flat flat, then C sharp flat and flat, then to the seven, B
flat flat and B flat, Then finish the one like
we've always done, okay? This is the first section. Here is how 7.8 bars look like. So 573624, then seven, okay? Then three, okay? 36, then two, so 15736254, then 7362, then then, okay. Yeah, this one, okay. Pretty much. That's
the whole exercise. You really have to
take your time, especially to master
those code changes. For the first
section, it's easy. So I'll just play
each section once. Okay, In the practice truck, each section is played
twice. The first section, you play that twice
in the truck. Okay. This is the third and fourth
section are the side looks like then 514, then 36267. Okay, so you play that in the
third and fourth section. Then the fifth and sixth
section looks like 17 362-514-7362, then 671. Okay. That's fifth and sixth section. Then section 7.8 this
is what you play. So start with that flat five. So F57. 3, 6, 2, 5, 1, 4, 7, 3, 6, 2, 1, 7, 6, 7, 1. Okay. So pretty much that's the whole exercise. Yeah. You can practice
those changes. May have introduced, no, I don't think I
really introduced anything that is so new
from what we've learned. This one was just an exercise
to help you master 251. You really have to master them. It's not just about
mastering them, it's learning how to put
them into context as well. That when you're given a song, maybe you're given a song song, amazing T we did. You could do 736, then the two, you see that. Then the five, then 36 to five. Then you see that you could
still do that six to five, then one, then four. Then you could do
the 5766 to five. You could insert
all these changes, even a song like you are, okay. So no you could introduce these
changes to any particular song. You really want to learn how
to put them into context. So that's just it for
this chapter. No problem. I'll see you in
the next chapter. The next chapter will
be the last one. Yeah, I'll break down
probably a song. That's the last chapter.
12. Chapter 11 Song Example Lamb Of God: Okay, so welcome to the
last chapter of C on the Q, F. Now for this, I decided to break the song, Lamb of God by N
featuring Benjamin. It's a simple song, If you
listen to the first version, it started from A sharp, went to F, and then finally I decided to break it down
on the key of a flat. Yeah, the version
featuring Nazi Benjamin. There is another version, but I won't be breaking
down that version. Breaking down the first version, simple, basically
started on the one. Okay, That's a flat
flat, then flat, flat, flat, flat, flat nine. That's the one, then
this is my melody. That's a 67. Then to the two. That's B flat flat, then C sharp flat. Okay. Then to the three. Okay. Then that's flat. Then I have B flat,
flat and flat. Okay. Then to the six, that's flat. Then I have flat, flat and sharp, right? Then to the seven, B flat, then B flat flat. Okay. Then I went back to the one. Okay. I showed you this
in the previous section. Okay. You can do that. Just bring it sound
a little bit better. Yeah, I just show it again. Flat then B flat. C flat flat, then drop
the C sharp to the C, then drop the F to the flat. Okay? So first, okay, then to the two. Again, the same two code. Then to the same three cord. Okay? Then 123, then 671, then two again, the
same code, then three. My Melody's flat flat,
that's one to the two. Then this code,
that's the seven. And B flat, then DC, that's what I call
the major seven. Maybe you could play rootless. That's B flat, D. Then FC. The best player,
you'll give you this. Okay? Then to the three flat. Flat, then flat and flat. That's the rootless. For those who want
to keep the root, just play B flat, then flat. Flat and flat. Okay? If you don't want
to keep the root, or if you want to keep
the root, that's the 736. That's flat, flat, and
then flat, and B flat. Okay? That's the rootless
voicing. If you want to play. The root doesn't move
the flat up to the three flat and the six, okay? Then from the six
went to the seven. I play that as my seven code F, then B flat, G, and B flat. Okay, Then I do some leg. Okay, so I start with this code, then C, E, G. Okay? Then I just move each
tone up by a semi tone. I have flat sharp. Then I have B flat, C sharp, and flat. Okay, Then you just drop these two flat
down to A and C sharp. Do you have that? Flat, Flat, sharp then and flat. Okay. Then that's
the next code sharp. C and B flat, the movement, then then B flat, flat and flat. Okay? Okay? From the beginning, the same code. Then then to the seven, then, okay, Then to 362, okay? So that then B flat
flat, then to the six, F, the sharp, sharp, Okay, flat, flat. Okay? So that's the melody. F, G to flat 671 on
this code, flat, flat. B flat, the C sharp flat, then that's flat, flat,
flat, flat, flat. And then you have
the B flat flat. And then back to
the one at nine, flat, flat, flat, flat,
flat, flat, flat. Whole of the first
part, looks like the 736, then to the
seven, then this movement. Okay, forget that's another seven threes, if I give you, made me break that down. F, then B flat. C sharp, okay? Then C, B flat, then C
sharp sharp, flat. Okay. So you could lead
into the F sharp from the. You could do, then you see that. Okay. I have flat and
flat on my left hand, then I have G and B
flat on my right hand. So I'm leading into
the G from the F. Okay. Okay, Then you could even
play this for your five. You could play something
like this or maybe, let's play lower then you. Flat and flat, okay? Play this, okay? I'm just giving you
simple code changes. You could play to the song. Then instead of just going to
the one direct to the five, you could do such a movement. The movement looks like
3456 on my left hand. Okay. So C sharp flat. And then you play this F
and F sharp together. Okay? Okay. Then on your right hand, you have a flat, flat. Sharp and Okay. So that's a rootless five? Yeah. Then sharp, then sharp
and flat, that's one. Okay. Then the C sharp, flat, then then something like this flat, C, E, B flat. Then flat, flat, flat. The movement then
to the two flat. Then flat, flat to the two, to one, then to the C.
I've told you that. Flat flat then, and B flat
leading into the G from Dean and flat, then to B flat, then flat, then to the two. You could have this
on your left hand, B flat flat and D. Or you
could have A flat flat. And you could either use this or start with CF. Move the C up to the D. Okay. Then back to the, the C to B flat, that's the two. Then it sounds like that's flat, C sharp and Okay. Then here we start with
the flat and to the five. B flat flat and six and flat. Okay. Then now you hold this C sharp and
on your left hand. Okay? Then flat flat to the one which
you're playing as a nine. So you have a flat
flat, then flat, B flat flat flat. That's pretty simple. Those are some changes
you could introduce to the song six, then you remember this, okay? Okay. So this is what I did for the first section
I just played. I just did the 766 to seven
to one the suspended flap. Flat, then G flat flat flat, and B flat to the one to six. That's what I did. Then I
went to the second part, you could introduce this CE, then B, B flat, flat and flat. Okay. Then I didn't
go to the 671, I just went to the
four C sharp and flat. Then you have C flat and flat. Five flat, flat,
flat, sharp, flat. Then to the one, to the two. Again, same code to the three. Then instead of just going to the seven, I use
the passing code. I did something
like that. A flat F sharp on my left hand. Okay. Then I played this call
CF and Island. Okay. Okay. So that's just
a passing code. So maybe you played
that passing code. Seven. Okay. Show 36 to seven again, 51. Then I did the 36. Okay. This is how 62 looks like. A B flat flat then and D flat. Then I have a flat, and then my two. Okay. Then 51. Okay. Then for the third part, I did something like Okay, that movement 4321736. Okay. So the fo you have C
sharp, and then okay, on the right then you have C, then you have B flat and D flat. Then you have B flat, then
you have flat and C sharp. Then you have flat,
then you have C, then you have the C, then you have C, then you
have B flat and C sharp. Then that B flat. B, B flat flat. Okay? Okay? Then, and flat, okay. You could even add
the C and E flat, okay? Okay? The 75. See, I'm giving you an option. Then the six, then to the seven, that B flat flat,
then to the one. I'm playing it to the F sharp with the seven at nine flat, then sharp, flat, flat, sharp. The flat flat, then I
have sharp and flat. Okay. You could do
something like that. So then we could do something like, how does this look like? C sharp, sharp, B flat. The one flat flat
then flat flat. C sharp on your left hand, then sharp flat shop on
your right hand on flat, then that's flat, flat. Then D, the five that's flat
then you'll drop that flat. Gcg flat flat. You have so many options. Okay, Particular six to seven to one. In the last section,
I actually passed through the flat
five before going to the N. I use this code and shot
then E flat. Okay. Then that took me to the four, then I've been doing 36. Okay. Okay. So
something like that. Then to the seven, To one, then flat five, then to
the four, then three. That's pretty much also you can introduce as many
changes as you want. You can make it your own, but the practice
truck is available. You can practice your own thing. I check out what I did at
the beginning because that is exactly how you're
supposed to play the truck. I've just been breaking down segments and showing
you a few co, changes that you can implement. You don't have to play it
exactly the way I play it. With all these tools, you can always come up with
your own thing. That will be it for the
flat advanced course. That's not all you have
to learn on the Q. A lot you have to learn, but in future courses, for now, make sure you
check out all the sections. We practice, all
those code changes. This course mainly
about code changes. A practice, those code
changes and progressions, the 251 and all that, are the little movements
that the professionals use. Practice them very
well. Yeah, hopefully you'll become a better player. That will be the
end of this course. We'll see you in
future courses. Yeah.
13. Conclusion: Thank you for
watching this course. I hope you have gone through
each chapter carefully. The last three
chapters are examples. Now, I have one example
for augmented codes. It's not really a song, it's a track for you to practice how to use
these augmented codes. Then I have about
two song examples. The lead sheets
will be done here, I hope you are going
to check them out, ensure you practice
each example correctly, and ensure that you are taking your time and learning
these things. Give me feedback in case of any challenges.
Give me feedback. Tell me how you're
making progress. Yeah, let's keep learning. Let's keep improving
in the key of a flat.
