    When we did counterpoint secondary dominants (classical stuff), We'd write the original chords, and underneath write ii of IV, V7 of IV - IV. So you had context in the home key but also the function of the chords
  • @Eric-dd8bk
    So this is all it was all along after all with some substitutions and passing chords? The jazz progressions I mean? Great lesson. Learned a lot as a guitarist too. Thank you
  • @BrettPenza
    Harmony. Got to love it. Once you go around the circle and define every reason why every note/chord works, you come to realize that any note can work anytime, anywhere and the only real question is "Does it sound good?" This is a very cool screen you've got setup there. Great Fun, love the thinking and enthusiasm. Thanks much.
  • Im a guitar player..and this make perfect sense..but the cavot is you must know something about substitutions,tritone subs and sec doms..GREAT LESSON..
  • @robstevens9590
    Thanks Jamie! Chocked full of good information! I definitely had to pause a few times to be able to understand what was being taught.
  • @thepianokid27
    Great video Jamie! It's a really meaty one this one but amazing how u showcased the fact that most jazz could simply be broken down into those 3 patterns and that it need not be overly complicated! Thanks!~
  • @davidsmusic
    What a great video Jamie!!🎉 thanks so much and I’ll wacht it again
  • For brevity of terminology and better understanding of context, I prefer to refer to a dominant 7 with a natural 13 and a #11 simply as a Lydian dominant (provided your listener knows what that means). That and the altered dominant are tritone substitutions of each other using different modes of the same scale.
