    I appreciate your presentation of the 7-3-6-2-5-1-4 formula, maybe because I'm ready to hear it. Years ago in college music theory they just talked about the circle of fifths and ii-V-1 and assumed we could work out a modulation to anything, but it didn't seem very helpful. I think the advantage of this formula is it expresses the circle of fifths in diatonic steps, suggesting a single path to follow and an identifiable pattern for a lot of music. The formula provides a slightly different way to think about the circle of fifths and I'm happy to add that tool to my toolbox.
    Someone asked about the special cases of 1-4-7 and 4-7-3. Maybe you could cover movement to distant keys in another video. As you noted in the Description, the formula covers "built-in" 2-5-1 progressions, and it's trickier to move outside of those. But this formula really is an essential and useful foundation.

    Id like to hear the diminished idea explained. When you used the G diminished instead of the A. Why does it work?

    • @dnlwht
      @dnlwht  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Great question! The G diminished 7 (G°7) works similarly to an A7 because it adds tension that resolves to D minor or D major. When you use G°7 over an A bass, it functions like an A7b9, creating a strong push towards resolving to D. This is a fun technique to help add color and interest to chord progressions!

    How is the dm any different if you change the key to f!?!

    • @dnlwht
      @dnlwht  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for your question! I’m not sure I mentioned that the Dm would be any different if the key changes to F, but if I did, that was a mistake!
      The main point of the exercise is to explore potential _passing chords_ . I think I used Dm as an example of a chord for you to _end on_ after you've played a couple _passing chords_ first.
      If I'm remembering correctly, the example with the Dm is towards the end of the video. Let me know if you have more questions or if I'm not understanding what you're asking :)

    I need some support 😅. You started in the key of C and then used the 7-3-6 to come the Am…I’m trying to continue in the key of C take the next step 3-6-2 but it does not sound good at all 😢 what do I miss?

    • @dnlwht
      @dnlwht  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Great question! The formula 7-3-6-2-5-1-4 is designed to _help you find passing chords for any target chord in a major key_ . It's similar to the ii-V-I progression, but it's more about providing options than playing through it strictly.
      In the key of C, if you're moving to Am (the 6 chord), you can use Bdim (7) and E major (3) as passing chords. However, you could also simplify and use just one passing chord, like E major (3), before your target chord of Am.
      If your next target chord was Dm (the 2 chord), then you could use Em (3) and A (6) as passing chords. Again, you could simplify and use just one passing chord, the A major (6) before your target chord of Dm (2).
      Remember, these passing chords can be of any quality-major, minor, augmented, or diminished-and aren't limited to diatonic chords (chords based off the key). Here are a few examples to try:
      Em (3) to A major (6)
      E/G# (3) to A major (6)
      Eø7 (3) to A/C# (6)
      Experiment with different qualities, voicings, and the number of passing chords to see what sounds best for your song. Happy playing!

      I thought BDFA is half diminished and B D F Ab is fully diminished though, I think if the diminished chord is only the 1st 3rd and 5th you can't really say if its fully diminished or half diminished because the chord isn't extended yet.

    • @keithsamuels7645

      @dnlwht  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I like thinking of it this way too, especially with my gospel music & gigging background!
      In my reading, the vii chord is typically written as diminished because it naturally occurs on the 7th scale degree in each major key. In this video, I'm using it in the key of C and once you add the minor 7 to the chord it becomes a half-diminished 7th (Bø7).
      I say all that but totally get using Bm7b5 too - it can be helpful for understanding the chord's structure.

      @@dnlwht Bm7♭5 (also called B half diminished) has the Bm7 notes B D F# A but with the 5th (F# in this case) taken down half a step to become F.
      Bm7♭5 contains the same notes as Dm6. it just has B in the bass instead of D.

    Why is the three chord used here major? Not a diatonic chord

    • @dnlwht
      @dnlwht  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Great question! Once you understand the 'formula' and where you want to land, you can incorporate various chord qualities (major, minor, augmented, or diminished) into your passing chords.
      In this case, I used the Bø7 to E major, which smoothly leads us to the A minor and adds a 'gospel/R&B' feel. If that specific chord doesn't resonate with you, no worries! You can always opt for the diatonic option. I simply wanted to showcase some other creative possibilities
      Feel free to experiment and discover what works best for your style!

      Yes, you can use Em as it’s the diatonic option, but as we’re looking for interesting passing chords, E major is also an option. Really any quality of chord - major, minor, augmented, diminished - is a possibility with this idea :)

      This concept is based on the note / chord you're landing on. If you're playing in the key of C and the song is landing on A (or 6 minor) think about the A scale before playing the 2 5 1. So in the key of A, the E chord is a major (because G# is in the key of A and not G). Then one you hit the A, everything is back into the key of C. It's a little confusing at first but it will come more natural with muscle memory / practice.

    Those cords are a fifth way not a fourth way the fifth is dominant to a one it’s a series of fifths that’s how it functions

      A fifth downwards is basically the same as a fourth upwards

      Great point, and I appreciate the feedback! I do understand how it works and mentioned this in some earlier comments.
      My aim here was to help people quickly find tones for building chords, and using 4ths seemed like a simple approach. I'm not trying to mislead anyone-just offering a helpful "hack" for finding chords on the spot.

      Hey Russell - solid questions! The 'formula' you mentioned isn’t quite a full circle. In a major key, the 4th and 7th scale degrees are a tritone (TT) apart, so you wouldn’t typically use the 4 to get to the 7.
      Instead, you'd want to try using a chord based on the #4 to transition from #4 to 7 to 3. For example, in the key of C, you could use: F#ø7 - B7 - Em
      Alternatively, you can use a chord based on the 7th scale degree to reach the 3. In C, try: Bmaj (or B/D# or even a simple G/B) to Em
      For a deeper understanding of tritones, check out my video here: th-cam.com/video/WhZ5jGcwACo/w-d-xo.html
      Hope that helps!

    I see what you're trying to do but don't people just go to the a minor from the C?
    OK so this enhances your playing by having harmonic substitutions which to my ear sounds a lot like gospel music playing by the fantastic gospel piano players of the past especially in the black church.

    • @dnlwht
      @dnlwht  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For sure! You can totally go from a C to an Am and it sounds great!
      I made this video after a few friends asked how I find passing chords. I did take a few theory shortcuts (hint: there are 5ths in this) but the goal was to help keys players easily find tones to add/build chords if that's what they're hoping to do.
      This is also great for songwriter's looking to add some different options to their songs. Anyway - thanks for the comment and for checking this out!
