Could you explain the reason to call the second chord Em7(b5) / E "half diminished" instead of its enharmonic equivalent Gm6? Is it because of its relationship with the harmony it revolves around and resolves to?
In jazz terms, Gm7 and Em7b5 are interchangeable, different voicings of the same chord. I opted for Em7b5 because the melody note is E and that just seemed more logical.
Thanks for your video!
brilliant thanks
Finally beginning to understand how all notes are connected thanks to your simple explanations Mr. Hein
Glad to hear it!
