One of the most interesting patterns in music is the diminished 7th chord and its related arpeggios and scales. This chord is symmetrical, built entirely of minor 3rds, and this provides some unique qualities that can be both very useful and fun to explore.
In this lesson we’re going to talk about some of the ways that diminished patterns can be applied in different musical contexts. The lesson is an overview of some of the unique characteristics of this chord, with some hands on application that you can immediately use in your playing.
We’ll explore the inversions of the diminished 7th chord and how to use them, the arpeggios, and also the scales that go along with them. Moving from the most applicable diminished ideas to the more theoretical, you will come away with a better understanding of these patterns and have a pathway forward to practice implementing them in your playing.
Join me to explore this exciting and interesting sounding harmonic treat.
Thanks for your support,
Trent
