The whole tone movements add a beautiful dimension to our dominant chords. In this lesson, we'll see what they are, how to learn them, what we can do with them and practical applications on chord progressions and tunes.

I think this is my favorite music channel now and I'm a guitar player. I just realized that because I'm back again and always learn something interesting. Sometimes it take a little sink in the half of a brain cell I have left but it does somehow.

I definitely heard Stevie Wonder’s “Sunshine Of My Life” intro the first time you played the whole tone triads in ascending direction… what a buzz I got when you dropped that anecdotal nugget‼️

Awesome!!! When I was younger I would look up all the chords to figure out what these jazz guys are doing and couldn't ever get a proper answer... Now I see what you did... augmented chords, but it's about voicings, inversions, and what you add to the left hand to make it more than a simple augmented chord diversifies it a lot!!! Great video! Liked and subscribed!!!

When I was studying with Barry, I would watch him doing it and my mind is still blown :)

@themidger1 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for this video, this is stuff I spent a long time thinking about on my own, watching clips of Barry and studying his playing. It is so validating to see you talking about it. Whole tone over dominants is one of my favorite ways to voice and move voices on dominants. Those symmetrical structures are easy to dive deep into - you can also do the same thing with diminished scales and their voice movements over dominants. Exploiting tonal symmetry for extreme reharmonization is the heart of bebop and Barry’s sound imo
