Modern Chording – The Scale of Chords Concept

3 Lessons

Chord playing is about far more than knowing a handful of shapes — it's about having the freedom to put the right voicing under any melody note, at any moment. This course gives you that freedom by teaching you the Scale of Chords concept across the three main chord types.

What this course covers

You will learn how to build and use Scales of Chords for Major, Minor, and Dominant chord types. This is a technique used constantly in funk, jazz, R&B, and solo guitar to create melodically interesting rhythm parts, harmonise melodies on the spot, and construct chord melody arrangements. By the end of the course, you will be able to climb any scale with the tonic chord underneath each note — giving your comping and chord playing a whole new dimension.
