[@Mizzdr111]

Extremely good lesson, didnt know inversions can influence the sound of a progression and add so much. Rather than just using the other diatonic chords, borrowed chords, secondary dominants and tritone subs. Really opens up the possibilities...

Please recommend books for chord progressions. You are the best teacher I have ever seen. Thanks for your service sir!!

[@frankspears4597]

It is good practice to work out chord progressions in pop songs. In this way you can see why songs work by e.g modulation from one key to another or returning the the original key. You can learn a lot by doing this. Also good for hearing/working out chords!

[@MusicMattersGB]

Have a look at our videos on the subjects of chord progressions in major keys and in minor keys.

[@harrisfrankou2368]

@@MusicMattersGB I've a piece I've had for years in C minor using and Fc and no matter what I did it sounded cheesy when I wrote a "B Section". The usual Ab > Bb back to Cm etc. I liked going to Ab to G major in the Harmonic minor with the Eb note on top. But still it didn't do the theme justice. I've played a few of these options thanks a lot. I'd love to see some comparisons to Classical by the better Pop writers like The Beatles and early/mid Elton John.

[@martinbennett2228]

It is not surprising that you do not have an example with chord III, though it is tempting for beginner students to try to use it. Have you done a video on problems (and possibilities perhaps) with chord III (why it should be avoided)? Another issue is V - IV. Some teachers say this should be avoided. Do you take this line too?

[@MusicMattersGB]

Video on chord III in pipeline. Many books advise avoiding V IV. It’s all about context. Often it doesn’t work but sometimes it works well.

What about following I with iiic? Also, the third progression, I - IVb - V is what's used in La Bamba, if I'm not mistaken.

😀 I to iiic is an unusual progression.

[@hoon_sol]

@@MusicMattersGB: It's quite nice if you ask me, just a single voice moving down a single semitone. Any particular reason why it's unusual?

[@MusicMattersGB]

Yes the bass shifting down a semitone works well. Conventionally it’s about the second inversion because a 6/4 5/3 resolution is problematic with iiic moving to vii

Very informative video. Although all the chords you discussed as chord progressions are diatonic. Could you perhaps do a video like this showing possible chord progressions involving chromatic harmony?

[@MusicMattersGB]

That’s certainly a future possibility.

[@Stevethesearcher]

Hi Gareth. I had a chuckle when you mentioned the Shakespeare chord. That might have gone over some younger viewers heads. Getting back to the theory two things I found of interest were when you mention following the tonic chord with an inversion of the tonic chord. In this way you get movement while staying on the same chord. The second thing was when you mentioned using an inversion of the diminished chord. Could you follow up this video with using non Diatonic chords outside the Key. I only found out about this recently. I think you borrow chords from a parallel key. That indeed would be the logical follow up to this video. Thank you.

[@MusicMattersGB]

We’ve got some videos on the channel on non diatonic chords but will look at parallel key borrowing as a topic.

[@MrSlimfinger]

Why are the US chord inversions named 6-3 and 6-4? I don't see how that translates at all.

[@punctuscontrapunctum4066]

It is not an American convention, really, but derives from the practice of describing the intervals above some bass note. Take the chord C Major. C - E - G. In first inversion, that gives E - G - C, where C makes a general sixth interval against the E in the bass [E-F-G-A-B-C], & G makes a general third interval against the same bass note E [E-F-G]. Bear in mind that in a 6/3 chord, the 6 could actually sound below the 3, or vice versa, if compounds of the 6 or the 3 are taken into account. But, in the case of the C Major chord in first inversion, that bass note is E, & the 6 and the 3 above it are measured in relation to it, resulting in the general description of it as a "6/3" inversion. The same holds for the 6/4 or any similar description of an inversion you encounter. Look into "figured bass".

[@MrSlimfinger]

@@punctuscontrapunctum4066 That makes perfect sense, thank you for the detailed explanation!

[@MusicMattersGB]

That’s great. It all comes from the Figured Bass system developed during the early Baroque period, all focused on intervals above the bass note.

[@d.l.loonabide9981]

I call them first and second inversion, not 6-3, 6-4. I have to say I like the abc version more. Calling the first thing "root", the second thing "first", and the third thing " second" is what I've come to expect from the geniuses who created our musical terms.

[@annperry8943]

Wonderful

[@MusicMattersGB]

Thanks. Hope you’re well.

[@Dave-nm8uk]

Very helpful - as with many of your videos. Also useful is to know how to specify inversions in chord notation - used in some systems. C/E is a representation of Ib in C major, while C/G is Ic in C major. Cm/Eb is Ib in C minor. F/A is IVb in C major, while Fm/Ab is IVb in C minor (harmonic), and F/C is IVc in C major. V (Va) is just G, while Vb is G/B and Vc is G/D. II (or IIa - sometimes written ii in lowercase - to show minor) is Dm, IIb is Dm/F. VI (vi to show minor) is Am. Trickiest is VIIb - needs more thought. I think it's Bdim/D or sometimes shown as a chord Bo/D. All of these are assuming C as the tonic.

[@MusicMattersGB]

That’s the idea. Don’t forget the accidentals in the slash chords.

[@Dave-nm8uk]

@@MusicMattersGB Thanks. I missed one or two - I think they're now fixed. It would get more difficult for other keys, but I'm assuming those who want to use the chord notation will figure it out. It's useful for some of the notation systems, and some will play back a voicing of the chords specified.

Shouldn't the chord progressions follow your melody? Might be a stupid question because I'm a newbie.

No. The melody and chords need to belong to each other for the most part but you don’t usually want the bass line tracking the melody which is what happens if the chords follow the melody.

Lol 2b or not 2b, rolling on the floor

[@flipperpitstudio]

Confused: In example #2, you're using the first inversion for chord V, though it's not labeled that. Other times also, you're using the inversion chords on the ones that aren't labeled as such. Why? If the freedom is always there to use other inversions instead of the exact notation, why use labels at all? Thanks!

[@MusicMattersGB]

I’ve just checked the inversions and they seem to be correct. Inversions are determined by the lowest sounding note of the chord. The other notes can be placed in any order.
