    This is an excellent video. If you use the Barry Harris 6th diminished scale which adds the #5, you will find this is an easier way to get that tension and release. Within the scale, there is a diminished 7th. If you start on each note of the scale and alternate major 6th and diminished 7ths, this will help when forming chords within the scale. Not sure if I have explained this well but it really does work.

      Btw, credit for my understanding this goes to Sean Wilson Piano - excellent stuff in his programme…

      Yes this is another method and a great one. Love Barry Harris! but there isn’t a “specific “ kind of tension, as that method gives you a certain flavor that won’t work in all situations. The main point i wanted to drive home was just understanding tension in general and there are infinite ways to create it. Thanks for watching and sharing the Barry Harris concept!

    So I wanna ask a question it's about improvisation.
    About the end when you were improvising on Eb.
    How do you come up about all those lines and licks.? I find it hard to do that and get stuck mostly while practicing.

    • @ZacBarnesMusic
      @ZacBarnesMusic  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'll have to make a video about that some day. That's a whole lesson in itself haha. One simple solution is to start taking melodies you know and use them as inspiration.

    LOVE IT BUT, this only works for Jazz, Gospel, R&B, bit can this work with contemporary music like contemporary Christian without it standing too far out? Make heads turn bit not TURRRRN. How can I throw in maybe a tritone, or add an 11th, 13th, flats, minors, etc in the music without it sounding abnormal to that type of audience yet it sounds like good? And how do I learn what "tension chords" to play

    • @ZacBarnesMusic
      @ZacBarnesMusic  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Thanks for watching! This works for ALL genres of music. I used the tritone as a reference for this particular instance but tension doesn't mean "super far out jazz extensions". Also remember, not all tension is the same. Simply changing the voicing of a chord can add subtle tension. The key is to LISTEN to whatever song your playing and then play accordingly. So sometimes it's just subtle shifts and other times it can be more dramatic. Whatever fits the song/scenario best. 💪🏽

      I think CCM employs the use of sus chords to get that tension. Also drop 2 chords add lots of flavour to that genre of music without becoming too distracting.

      @@ZacBarnesMusic Thank you. Do you have some sort of music academy online that teaches concepts like this and others but more in depth and slow (taking your time) for people who are slow learners? I've been playing for over 20 years but I'm the guy that plays the simple chords. Never learned anything further. If I want to expand my chords, I usually blend 2 major chords together because ots a simple concept to understand without thinking much. I wish everything was that simple. Putting 2 major or minor chords together to create an extended chord, but every song doesn't sound good doing this, and every chord im a song doesn't sound good doing this. I need to incorporate tritones, etc. But knowing when to is key. And I need to know an easy way to learn tritones where its effortless.

      It's an interval where the root is 3 whole tones away from the top note. In other words Root and you sharp the 4th scale degree.
