In this episode, we look at some ways that we can apply Barry Harris' 6th Diminished system to a 12 bar blues in the key of F. This is an amazing system that teaches you how to stop playing static chord voicings, and start playing dynamic, 3 dimensional harmonic movements instead. Make sure to watch episode 1 (or at least make sure you understand about the major 6th diminished and minor 6th diminished scales of chords, and how you apply them to each chord quality,) otherwise this video probably won't make much sense. [ Ссылка ] (Broad strokes, on major chords, play major 6th diminished on the root or the major 6th diminished on the 5th. On minor 7th chords, play the major 6th diminished on the relative major, or the major 6th diminished on the 5th of the relative major. On minor 6th chords, play the minor 6th on the root. On dominant 7th chords, play the minor 6th diminished on the 5th, or the minor 6th diminished on the b2nd, or the major or minor 6th diminished scale of whatever key the dominant chord is V of, starting on it's diminished. On minor 7 flat 5 chords, play the minor 6th diminished on the 3rd. On tonic diminished chords, play the diminished scale.)
Barry's system is deep, and it rewards experimentation and exploration, so don't just play these examples I show you. The possibilities are endless. Make it your continuing mission to seek out new chord forms and new harmonizations.
