Learn How Use Drop 2 Voicing in Reharmonization and Chord Progression - Easy Tips.

Drop 2s are not difficult to execute. First of all, there are no drop 2 "chords", rather there are Drop 2 VOICINGS. Thus, you can literally apply the Drop 2 technique to ANY chord/chord progression, as you play. This tutorial well explains how to identify, and use Drop 2s, how to practice them, as well as some examples of how to use them in songs. Enjoy!

Hi - this is great. But ... I know what a relative minor is, but what is the link between the relative minor and the drop 2? I mean ... We start off putting the second highest note of the chord to the left hand ... I get that ... But now we're practicing and we're putting the relative minor to the left hand? Using the C# chord, depending on the inversion the note in the left hand could be a F or G# ...or the C (or the B?). But you've put the Bb on the left hand - what is your logic there? Thanks for putting this out there.

[@EasyKeysPiano]

Got you, I used the term "relative minor" for explanation purposes not as a stand-alone concept nor having any direct relationship with the context of the subject - Drop 2 voicings. I did a whole series on Drop 2 voicings with more detailed explanations on the subject, check it out here; ruclips.net/p/PLGOIZE0F7n2IqfRWKVWi0yFc_6EOM69Dw&si=qJEq5hlPJB22peLe

[@EasyKeysPiano]

😉👌🏼

[@JiecinDumolang2011]

4:07 I thought that was *F7(#9#5)*

[@EasyKeysPiano]

Technically you're correct from the display at 4:07, however an F7(#9#5) or F (Aug7)#9 chord/voicing would have to include the "A" note. Thus F7(#9#5) = F+(A)+C#+D#+G#. Hope this helps.

[@JiecinDumolang2011]

@@EasyKeysPiano I should have said that...

[@EasyKeysPiano]

Not an issue fam you good 👑👑

[@fakepastorbaconchickeneati8965]

I don’t understand the relative minor thing how do we know what chords to play while playing the relative minor scale and chord inversions I’m really confused and I want to understand I’m frustrated honestly

[@EasyKeysPiano]

I definitely feel you fam, I felt the same way initially as well, however it really isn't difficult. Basically, chords are derived from scales, and so the chord options immediately available to you would easily be derived from the scale(s) you're playing. For instance on Key C, the relative minor scale would be the A minor, which is the same as the C major scale however starting from the 6th degree of the scale which is A and up to the next higher key A in the sequence. From that A minor scale you can derive an A minor chord, a C Major chord, D minor chord, G7 chord, etc. This is the fundamental idea behind harmony of scales and chords. Chord inversions are simply the different shapes of the same chord. Hope this helps.

[@ancctech]

Yeah bro, learn the scales. It's important to understand how to play a song. The scale degrees are: Major, Minor, Minor, Major, Major, Minor, half diminished, Major.

[@EasyKeysPiano]

💯 👌🏼👑

[@joshcrispy6616]

Should I learn jazz theory to understand this or should I just learn it in general thank you

[@EasyKeysPiano]

Ofcourse you don't need jazz theory to understand drop 2s fam lol what aspect of drop 2s is still a lil bit of a challenge to you?

[@joshcrispy6616]

@@EasyKeysPianojust this whole concept with playing the relative minor scale and the major scale should we form the chords based of the minor scale note or the major scale it’s confusing that’s why I asked should I learn jazz theory

[@EasyKeysPiano]

If i got you correctly, you mean to ask how and when to use both the major scale and the relative minor scale and if/how you should form your chords off of them?
Firstly there's absolutely nothing wrong in studying piano theory in any genre, eg, Jazz. Itl always be an addition to your musical prowess 👍🏻.
Secondly I'd like you to see all scales, chords, licks, runs, etc, on the piano as building blocks - tools available to you, to use in any context you choose, be it song, instruments, etc.
About the major and relative minor scales, they can actually be applied to any song or jam, depending on the creative desire of the player. Basically we practice them as plain scales, (or chords), however the purpose of learning them - is to use/apply them either wholistically or partially, in whatever song/jam you desire via your creativity. An example of a usage of the relative minor scale playing on key C would be when you are on the chord 6 or the chord 4 or chord 2, as a phrase to grace/express that chord. The same applies with the C major scale. Typing my response wouldn't do much justice to my explanation as music is an art(visually descriptive), however feel free to ask more questions in areas that are not too clear. Blessings!

[@jovanjohnson453]

Yes learn jazz theory because when you start learning it your gonna realize that music theory isnt actually separated. "Jazz theory" and "gospel theory" are the same thing, some approaches are different and some names for things may be different but the application is all the same. I feel like some of our greatest players on both sides are the people who understand that like Corey Henry or Robert Glasper. I think the real key is learn as much THEORY(jazz, classical, gospel, latin, eastern) and LISTEN to as much music as you can because you my come across how a Latin pianist or classical pianist uses drop 2 and that opens your ears to new possibilities. Im a horn player but im learning this so i can apply it to my own playing!

[@EasyKeysPiano]

100% with you on that. Music theory encompasses all the genres. The variations are simply different "approaches" or "expressions" of the same fundamental music principles. Funny rhetoric but basically a person would need to "know" so as to be able to "play/express" music efficiently. Music theory is indispensable irrespective of the instrument played, genre or even if a singer.

[@gracemaryann6016]

Thanks sir,,so how do you create those sweet movements,,don't have an idea if it's scale movements or grace notes I really like them,,hope you teach us..

[@EasyKeysPiano]

Much appreciated Grace 🙏🏻 Am assuming you mean the inner voicing movements of chords. Checkout my tutorial on inner-voicing movements here 👉🏼 ruclips.net/video/eiIIkJ-uIF8/видео.html Enjoy :)

[@LawrenceMkwebuchristian]

does this work on roots or even inversions. like do i have first play the drop two on root position then invert the voicing

[@EasyKeysPiano]

Yes Lawrence they work on roots and inversions. The "drop 2" isn't a chord itself but how you voice any chord you play. So if you play an inverted chord or a rootless chord, you simply apply the drop 2 voicing by moving the second highest note to the left hand or vice versa. However for practice purposes you may want to start from the root chords then build up from there. Hope this helps.

[@ranielyfire]

Much appreciated fam 🙏🏻

Really? find the relative minor without know what the relative minor is or where it is. Its always B flat?

[@EasyKeysPiano]

It the 6th degree of the major scale.
I have done several tutorials, community posts and a whole series on how to identify the relative minor, in playing Drop 2s.
