    This video explains how to change key with a pivot chord. This is also known as modulation by common chord or pivot chord.
    It will show you what a pivot chord modulation is, how to create one in your own songwriting and demonstrate how a full song can be transformed with a common chord key change.

    C-G-Am-F chord progression... the "Let It Be" verse progression, except that in that song, the F goes from an F6 to a regular F... ;)

    Keep up the great work! One slight correction though, around 4:57: it would be better just to refer to it as an authentic cadence, a perfect authentic cadence implies the V and I are in root position and the 1 is doubled in the I/i chord

      Thanks for the comment, I'll consider this for future videos.

      @@WriteASong your videos have given me some great ideas, especially ones like using sus chords and extensions, there's some material that covers these things on UA-cam but the way you present it just seemed to work for me!

    C and G also share e minor? Is there a reason you don’t use that as a pivot chord

    • @WriteASong
      @WriteASong  Рік тому

      Yes you're correct, I didn't deliberately miss it out in the examples. You can use it like any of the other pivot chords in your songs.
