Comping: Comping In Seconds

Content type: Video Upload
Chinese translation for Chinese students 伴奏comping的方式： 不是只能用轉位的方式，而是可以用音階是的方式， 這裡有一個練習方式：
 左手：Root+5音，2音＋3音 右手：solo 當你練越多時，會發現越多東西。 例如看到A, C, D，時，你可以放入F，聽起來可以是Cmajor 聲響。 演奏時嘗試演奏的好聽（musical），你會學到更多。

 很多時候和聲聲響是取決於前面那個和弦，或是後面的和弦。所以要總是小心得處理每個和弦。 等到你練這個越來越好了，你可以發現很多和聲在裡面，有時後你會發現有Voice leading…

Rootless Voicings - Part 9 - Dom 13b9
tonymiceli
Content type: Video Upload
Chinese Translation for Chinese students Ｃ13b9 的和聲配置(voicing) 你可以把7音放最底下(Bb)，再來3音(E)，然後是b9(Db)和13(A)音。 來談談這個13音(A)，在聽覺上你可能下一個和弦要接到Fmajor7 的錯覺。因為natrual A是FMajor的三音。 所以當我們在演奏ii-V-I的和聲進行中，會在演奏五級(V)時開始累積Major的聲響，因為五級(V)運用Dominant13b9。…
