Making music with 7th chord chains and advanced chord progressions in any style, from baroque to cocktail piano. The chain of 7ths has been used by composers since the Baroque period as a means of providing a rich sequence of 7th chords that works in any tonal style. There are many ways to present it musically but the underlying principle of the bass moving a 5th in one direction then a 4th in the other, using 7th chords built on each note is musically incredibly satisfying. It also presents myriads of options for modulation. If you’re a performer, a composer, or someone who wants to understand musical devices better, this is for you! 🔴 Subscribe for more videos just like this: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg?sub_confirmation=1 🎵 Become a Music Matters Maestro: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg/join 👕 Merch store: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg/store 🕘 Timestamps 0:00 - Introduction to the 7th chord chain 1:24 - Organising the progression of chords 2:48 - Baroque style uses 3:21 - Cocktail piano style uses 4:04 - Moving to another key 🎓 Learn Music Online with Music Matters Learn music theory, aural tests, composition, sight reading, orchestration and more!
