Note: Double accidentals are also possible, but are rarely used. A doublesharp (‹) raises the pitch by one whole step, a double flat (∑∑) lowers thepitch by one whole step.

5 Natural sign: A written musical character used to cancel previouslyindicated accidentals.

Note: Double natural signs are necessary to cancel double sharps or doubleflats.

5 Enharmonic spelling: Two ways of notating the same pitch, e.g., E∂ = F,A∑ = G∂, D∑∑ = C, F∂∂ = G, etc.

5 Clefs: Signs written at the beginning of each staff designating the pitches(or note names) of the lines and spaces. The treble clef (also called the Gclef) indicates the second line of the staff is the note G above middle C.The bass clef (also called the F clef) indicates the fourth line of the staff isthe note F below middle C.

Four-Part Chords

A four-part chord can be constructed by adding one note (i.e., the major 7th,or the minor 7th, or the major 6th degree) to a conventional triad form asfollows:

The most common and therefore most important four-part chord types(together with the recommended order of root tones to learn them on) are asfollows:

major 7 C, F, G, B∑, E∑, A∑, D, D∑, A, E, B, G∑

dominant 7 G, C, D, F, B∑, E∑, A, A∑, E, B, F∂, D∑

minor 7 D, G, A, C, F, B∑, E, E∑, B, F∂, C∂, A∑

minor 6 C, D, G, A, F, B∑, E, B, E∑, A∑, D∑, F∂

minor 7∑5 D, E, A, B, G, C, F∂, C∂, F, B∑, E∑, A∑

diminished 7 C (E∑, G∑, A), C∂ (E, G, B∑), D (F, A∑, B)

dominant 7sus4 G, C, D, F, B∑, E∑, A, A∑, E, B, F∂, D∑

Exercises and Drills

1. See back to Triad Exercises and Drills, page 42. Substitute four-partchords for triads, observing necessary changes or additions.

2. Also see 8. Chord-Tone Soloing, pages 166 thru 171; Chord-Tone Solo,pages 174 and 175; and How to Improvise: Lower Structure Triads and

Chord-Tone Soloing, pages 71-80, for more exercises.

5 Record and critique your practice daily.

Note: The term subdominant is also commonly applied to the perfect 4thdegree of the scale because it is located a perfect 5th below (sub) the tonic.

Dominant chords D Subdominant chords SD

V7 II–7VIIø IVΔ

Tonic Chords

The tonic functioning chords yield two levels of harmonic stability, with theIΔ and VI–7 chords being the most stable because they each contain the rootof the key, and the III–7 chord being the least stable because it does not con-tain the root of the key.

Nondiatonic Harmony

Most of the nondiatonic chords in standard song chord progressions arerelated in some functional or logical way to the primary key of the song (or ofthe moment). Such nondiatonic chords include the following:

5 Chromatically Altered Diatonic Chords

The common chromatically altered diatonic chords from major key har-mony are:

1. ∑VIIΔ – which is the VIIø chord with the root lowered by 1/2 step; itusually resolves to the VI minor chord or I major chord.

2. ∂IVø – which is the IVΔ chord with the root raised by 1/2 step; it usuallymoves to the IV major or IV minor chord.

3. I7 – which is the IΔ chord with the major 7th lowered by 1/2 step; itusually appears as the tonic dominant 7th chord in blues progressions.

4. IV7 – which is the IVΔ chord with the major 7th lowered by 1/2 step; itusually appears as the IV dominant 7th chord in blues progressions.

4. Practice playing the following solo at various tempos using swing feel withoccasional even feel (staccato) and double-time feel (legato) for effect.

Note: First practice the notes and rhythms of the solo with even feel (legato) only, then with swing feel only, and finally with different rhythmicfeels.

5. (CD 1)

Practice applying different rhythmic feels to scale pattern exercises andarpeggio pattern exercises played in 8th notes as in the exercise above.

Even feel 8th notes (two to several) with either staccato or combinations ofstaccato and legato articulation can be frequently interspersed among swingfeel 8ths to enhance the shading.

In general (or wherever rhythmic activity permits), a single measure of musicshould be played using predominantly legato articulation but with one ormore staccato attacks for effect.

(See How to Improvise: Time Feel and Articulation for more informa-tion and exercises on articulation.)

ImportantThe articulations used in the following exercises should be over exaggeratedin practice sessions to ensure the control and use of shading in performances.

Articulation PatternsPractice the articulation patterns shown in the example below by combiningvarious suggestions from the list below:

5 First play at a slow tempo, then at medium and faster tempos.

5 First play with consecutive even feel 8th notes played in phrases separatedby rest, and then with swing feel 8th notes played in phrases separated byrest.

5 First play using a single pitch, then with scale and arpeggio patterns, andfinally with improvised melodies over chord changes.

5 (CD 1 and/or 2) – Using chord tones only (roots, 3rds, 5ths 7ths)

Practice playing the following licks comprised only of chord tones as writ-ten in the key of C. Write in appropriate accents, ghost notes, articulation,etc. Exaggerate execution. Then select certain licks to transpose to otherkeys and practice. Practice writing out your own licks comprised of chordtones only as well. Then select certain ones to transpose to other keys andpractice.
