[@bennythebear0711]

I don’t get the tri tone sub ...do u build it from the chord your on or from the secondary dominant because then it become just going in from a half step above just like the first passing chord example

[@SkilledMusician]

Hey Benny! Thanks for the question. The tri-tone substitution in this context is the Dominant 7th chord a tritone away from your current dominant chord, which is very different than the chromatic pass. For example, in a ii-V-I progression in C major, so Dminor7 - G7 - Cmajor7, if I wanted to create a tritone substitution for the G7, I would use the Db7 chord, which is a tritone (3 whole steps) away. But the key to remember is this, when I play the Db7, I can play any alteration, so that Db7 chord might actually be Db7(b9, b5, 13). But when I do the chromatic pass, my root might be Db, but my chord quality would be the exact same as my Cmaj7 chord. So for the chromatic pass, my Db chord would be Db-F-Ab-C which is a Dbmajor7 chord. But in the tritone substitution, even if I played a basic Db7 chord that would be (Db-F-Ab-B) which is not the same as the chromatic pass. However, I would almost always add alterations to it, so it might be Left Hand (Db-B) and Right Hand (D-G-Bb) which is a Db7(b9,b5,13). So although the root movement is the same, the chord quality is completely different. Hope this helps!

Thanks, Long!

[@med3484]

This brings me back to all of those times in church when I would go up to the piano player and say, "what was that you did there?"...inevitably they said, "I don't remember what you are talking about" or " I don't know man, I just did it". Years of studying would have been saved for me if I just had someone to take a moment and say, "sure man let me break these chords/movements down with you" This is substantial and points those learning in the right direction. Great stuff!

[@SkilledMusician]

Yes sir I remember those days as well. Let's change the paradigm and help each other! Thank you so much for watching!

[@juliusthompson9306]

Same exact thing happened to me! And I actually could play classically! Took years even before someone told me to "listen to the bass"

[@dhpbear2]

I would always RECORD those sessions. I could then go back later and figure out the chords he was playing!

[@SkilledMusician]

Hey David! I did exactly that growing up! Back then I had a portable mini disc player that I took everywhere with me. Nowadays it's my cell phone, but I'm always recording. I literally have at least a 1000 hours of recordings of musicians I admire!

[@venusspacey9685]

Let's teach the young musicians to save up and pay these highly rehearsed musicians who took hours out of their lives to form their own style and flow of chords. Hand outs create ungrateful arrogant musicians a lot of the time.

[@nathancraig4710]

Wow the way you sauce up all those transitions never ceases to amaze me. Several times I found myself pausing the video and and being relaxed at how well you settled it and how resolved you made it feel. Keep making vids man, coming from the youth.

[@SkilledMusician]

Thanks Nathan! I will keep them coming!

[@joesonza]

Corey, this is the best chord lesson I've found on KZbin. Not just passing chords but it's a great lesson for just understanding chord relationships in general.

The tritone subs are great and I find they are especially useful when making them a dominant flat five. So rather than a straight C#7 in your first example, a C#7 b5 actually adds yet another tritone to the tritone sub!

Exactly! Nicely done Brian!

So the Tritone sub is essentially the semitone passing from above?

[@SkilledMusician]

Exactly! Just make sure the chord quality is dominant.

[@floofytown]

Lately I've been thinking about jazz dominants as functions of extended diminished chords, and so the tritone sub is the bass just going down two notes in a diminished chord!

I've been playing for many years and have never had someone explain passing chords in this way. This video will be a game changer for me. Thank you so much.

14:41 love that sound! Definitely going to spend some time looking at that riff and transposing in different keys. This is all incredible, by the way. Thanks for the in depth tutorial.

[@SkilledMusician]

You are definitely welcome! I was trying to find the exact spot to see if I could help you, but at 14:41 I am talking. Was this the correct spot? But wherever it is, be persistent and master it completely! You can do it!
