    😫🙌🏽 I thank God for you! I have struggled with left-hand chords for years! I had an amazing organist show me some left-hand basics like 20 years ago, but there is so much I'm not proficient with. Half of the battle is knowing what to do besides playing the same thing in my right-hand.

    The half diminished can be used with a 4th in the left hand also example: in C - C Eb Gb Bb a 5th is Eb to Bb but Bb to Eb is a 4th ❤ It’s lowkey the main chord that can use all three left hand chords 4th 5th and Tritone. Great video!!!!!

    The dominant 7th chord is the only chord that naturally fits in the major scale, the harmonic minor scale, and the melodic minor scale with the same root note. This is why the dominant chord and its core tritone sound so good together in music.

  • @MarieLove-z2v

    Wow, that makes so much sense. That's allowing the bass player to perfume their role, and not making the bass line sound too muddy. I get it. I see now. Usually my left hand is playing 1 note or 2 notes especially when in the 1st and 2nd octave. I had to figure that out because as you said it sounds muddy trying to play triads or 7th chords in the lower 2 octaves or invert the chords, which takes them out of the octave 2 range. I noticed your longer bass note and tritone chart had inverted chords when calculating all 12 notes. I realized from practicing that certain keys are always complimentary to each other and they invert as you keep playing up or down the piano. The larger shift in octaves is what also either builds tension or eases tension, just depending upon which direction you play, downward or upward. But leaving the bass note out of the equation makes so much sense, to give that honor to the bass player's part. That's under true orchestrated music composition.

    At 12:29.. Enharmonically they are different notes (note names) but the same/similar sound... so, for F#, it is A# and E. For Db... F and Cb, etc then show the simpler enharmonic system.

    it feels like ther's some relation between that tritone pair matching chart and the ideas of barry harris. he said in a video that the notes are divided into two gropus of 6, and seemed to be emphasizing the role of diminished intervals in organizing it all. just trying to wrap my head around all this still

  • @ahveekhy
    @ahveekhy Год назад +1

    I have a question. Do the same rules apply if the bass note differs from the chord? For instance, if the chord is an Am and the bass note is a D. Can we play the full chord since it won't clash with the bass note?

    • @SeanWilsonPiano
      @SeanWilsonPiano  Год назад +2

      It depends on the slash chord. In your example Am and D bass, that actually forms an Amin9. So you would use the LH rules for a minor chord.
