How to Expand Your Harmonic Vocabulary: Dominant Sevenths

[@kevinelliott5823]

This guy killed with Pasquale Grasso trio in Portsmouth. Amazing player

[@nichelleniks5346]

I'm a jazz singer but I still feel like I learn so much from watching videos for instrumentalists. Keep up the awesome content!

[@Mrius86]

I remember learning this in high school. There's no way around it: learning jazz theory can make you feel like your head is exploding. It's an incredibly enriching experience to learn, very few people get the chance to do it.

[@joemaddock5387]

This is the best explanation of altered harmony out there! Really good at simplifying the concept!

[@brendanfinucane]

Thank you for the excellent, clear presentation of the concepts!

[@subschool5]

if anyone is playing a tritone sub of C7, Gb7. i would recommend a scale that contains a C in it, Lydian b7 scale is what we called it at my school. Gb Ab Bb C Db Eb Fb take care and happy playing

[@MrDaraghkinch]

Super simple and concise, well done.

[@zander1020]

having played with groups/bands of various styles,many without charts i have,in the main supported what others are playing,ari,s easy style is helpful in expanding my horizons,maybe my solos can include some variations in future.

[@adamsandonato5743]

Thank you for the fantastic insight!

[@JazzAcademy]

Glad you enjoyed it! Please be sure to share the video, and stay tuned for more lessons from Ari on harmonic vocabulary

[@stephanemerlo]

Thank you so much, it's so clear and easy to understand. Searching for minors now ;)

[@paolofuriomarasso4226]

Ari Roland RULES!

[@dougp2917]

So it all shakes out as C Mixolydian with Db, Gb, and Ab added alt notes?

[@tomjackson5815]

[@giocoso4576]

b2 diminished 5 minor tritone sub b2 minor Augmented alteration

[@giocoso4576]

Fr tho use a tuner if you don’t have perfect pitch damn

[@francescomanfredi]

Great lesson! Any idea of the origin of "important diminished" and "important minor"? Never heard about it in classical harmony, only in maybe Berry Harris masterclass. Just a curiosity, thanks

[@J-Land]

so what we're talking about here is the altered dominant scale, right?

[@brentbreault7606]

VERY informative!!!

[@grampzstillkickin7252]

Excellent Thank you Thank you

[@ronwass]

I've been a musician for 40 years, and have never heard of the "Important minor." Not sure I understood it. Is it a substitution for the dominant seventh? Is it a Berkeley thing?

[@wolfpsx6210]

I guess it's a convenient way of thinking what to play on the weak beat of a dominant chord for bass line. It starts from the 5th, containing the 7th and 9th (all quite safe bets on a dominant, while maintaining that alternating bass of 1 and 5). Theoretically not solid, but convenient. I'm not a bass player so could be wrong.

[@cnrbsmth]

Its a staple concept from the Barry Harris cult.

[@alejandrahernandez6811]

Can I apply this to guitar as well?

[@JazzAcademy]

Some of the lessons translate over to guitar, yes! You can also learn more about rhythm guitar comping with this lesson: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmjMZ4ZqlNucack

[@paulkiss1981]

Damn... how does this man know where to push the strings without looking ON A FRETLESS FRETBOARD????

[@isetta4083]

You learn through muscle memory surprisingly quick, unlike fretless instruments of a smaller scale length the bass is quite forgiving when it comes to finding the notes. Not that it's easy at all, I've been playing for a few months now and playing high up and fast is *extremely* difficult

[@joekim3757]

i'm lost

[@isaachermanson5673]

Money. Just money

[@tonydark123]

Dflat diminished is: Db - E - G - Bflat - now why is Ari playing: Db - F - Ab - B ....? tha'ts actually D diminished and not Dflat !
