1 1 00:00:00,260 --> 00:00:03,730 7th Chord Workout, 2 exercises. 2 2 00:00:03,730 --> 00:00:07,110 Going to go over two exercises that you played before, and 3 3 00:00:07,110 --> 00:00:09,860 that will hopefully be quite easy for you now, in the key of C. 4 4 00:00:09,860 --> 00:00:14,780 But I'll remind you of the patterns now, because you'll need to know these well in 5 5 00:00:14,780 --> 00:00:17,720 the key of C before you try them in the other keys. 6 6 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:23,300 So first of all, the Caterpillar Walk that we learned in book six. 7 7 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,977 We'll do it in C family chords, starting with C major seven middle inversion. 8 8 00:00:28,977 --> 00:00:32,728 [MUSIC] So there's C middle with major seven, 9 9 00:00:32,728 --> 00:00:34,672 one left of the root. 10 10 00:00:34,672 --> 00:00:37,466 [MUSIC] 11 11 00:00:37,466 --> 00:00:40,300 I'm gonna Caterpillar out to F major seven. 12 12 00:00:40,300 --> 00:00:42,555 [MUSIC] 13 13 00:00:42,555 --> 00:00:46,467 So this is the cycle of 5ths using the C family chords. 14 14 00:00:46,467 --> 00:00:47,838 [MUSIC] 15 15 00:00:47,838 --> 00:00:50,256 Caterpillar in to B half diminished seven. 16 16 00:00:50,256 --> 00:00:52,552 [MUSIC] 17 17 00:00:52,552 --> 00:00:54,055 And out to E minor seven. 18 18 00:00:54,055 --> 00:00:55,762 [MUSIC] 19 19 00:00:55,762 --> 00:00:57,854 And into A minor seven middle. 20 20 00:00:57,854 --> 00:00:59,216 [MUSIC] 21 21 00:00:59,216 --> 00:01:06,144 Out to D minor seven, root position into G seven middle, back to C major seven. 22 22 00:01:06,144 --> 00:01:11,426 [MUSIC] 23 23 00:01:11,426 --> 00:01:13,098 So hopefully you can play that with ease now. 24 24 00:01:13,098 --> 00:01:14,735 It's not too hard with the white keys. 25 25 00:01:14,735 --> 00:01:19,000 The other keys are going to be a lot more difficult. 26 26 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,400 But every single key has the notes written in for you. 27 27 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,710 So you can take your time and go through every one of them. 28 28 00:01:24,710 --> 00:01:27,820 And remember tick the box when you've completed each key. 29 29 00:01:29,250 --> 00:01:33,550 Second exercise on the bottom half of the page is the one, six, two, 30 30 00:01:33,550 --> 00:01:35,110 five, progression. 31 31 00:01:35,110 --> 00:01:39,320 Another very useful progression, if you want to learn in every key. 32 32 00:01:40,320 --> 00:01:44,634 We'll go over it in C again just to remind you of how it goes. 33 33 00:01:44,634 --> 00:01:46,012 [MUSIC] 34 34 00:01:46,012 --> 00:01:47,840 So one and six. 35 35 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,384 Two, three, four, five, six. 36 36 00:01:49,384 --> 00:01:52,040 A minor seven. 37 37 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,970 And the two D minor seven. 38 38 00:01:54,970 --> 00:01:59,290 And the five G minor seven. 39 39 00:01:59,290 --> 00:02:02,340 So, C, Am, Dm, G. 40 40 00:02:02,340 --> 00:02:08,470 But the way we were playing it was using voicings. 41 41 00:02:10,990 --> 00:02:14,030 So, the third and the fifth out and I played in the right hand. 42 42 00:02:14,030 --> 00:02:17,040 I played the root and the seventh in the left hand, and the third and 43 43 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,710 the fifth in the right hand. 44 44 00:02:18,710 --> 00:02:21,930 So that's your C major seven and A minor seven. 45 45 00:02:21,930 --> 00:02:25,750 So that's root, seventh, third, fifth up to 46 46 00:02:27,220 --> 00:02:31,570 D minor seven, so there's your D minor seven take. 47 47 00:02:31,570 --> 00:02:34,770 I had the third and fifth, put it in the right hand. 48 48 00:02:34,770 --> 00:02:36,640 And a G, so there's your G seven. 49 49 00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:37,800 Take out those. 50 50 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:38,558 Put them up here. 51 51 00:02:38,558 --> 00:02:47,589 [MUSIC] 52 52 00:02:47,589 --> 00:02:49,650 Gives it a far cleaner sound. 53 53 00:02:49,650 --> 00:02:54,770 Good idea to practice these voicings in every key because 54 54 00:02:54,770 --> 00:02:56,720 you will be able to use them. 55 55 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,060 Somebody may want to sing in a different key. 56 56 00:02:59,060 --> 00:03:02,420 You'll find a song in another key and you'll want to use these voicings. 57 57 00:03:02,420 --> 00:03:05,160 Because voicings that are full four note 58 58 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,000 chords on the left hand can sound very muddy. 59 59 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,337 So let's say you were playing it in B flat. 60 60 00:03:09,337 --> 00:03:11,938 [MUSIC] 61 61 00:03:11,938 --> 00:03:13,716 B flat and a G minor seven. 62 62 00:03:13,716 --> 00:03:15,351 [MUSIC] 63 63 00:03:15,351 --> 00:03:17,850 To C minor seven down to F seven. 64 64 00:03:17,850 --> 00:03:18,679 [MUSIC] 65 65 00:03:18,679 --> 00:03:21,385 Sounds very muddy, but you take out the third and 66 66 00:03:21,385 --> 00:03:24,429 the fifth put it in the right hand, sounds different. 67 67 00:03:24,429 --> 00:03:25,679 B flat major seven. 68 68 00:03:25,679 --> 00:03:28,553 [MUSIC]. 69 69 00:03:28,553 --> 00:03:29,752 G minor seven. 70 70 00:03:29,752 --> 00:03:32,587 [MUSIC]. 71 71 00:03:32,587 --> 00:03:33,450 C minor seven. 72 72 00:03:33,450 --> 00:03:35,888 [MUSIC]. 73 73 00:03:35,888 --> 00:03:36,853 F seven. 74 74 00:03:36,853 --> 00:03:39,047 [MUSIC] 75 75 00:03:39,047 --> 00:03:40,106 Much cleaner sound. 76 76 00:03:40,106 --> 00:03:44,200 Again, tick the box when you've completed the different keys.
