Thank you so much for uploading this, I've really enjoyed watching the whole seminar over the past few days. Ted's such an inspirational character, teacher and musician.
Musical and instrumental mastery that stuns me every time. Question: starting at :14 how does he get "chord forms" with all four fingers essentially at the same time?(!) Perhaps he talks about this in one or more of the ear opening videos that you have thankfully made available? Would like to translate even a small fraction of what Ted Greene did to fretless Mandolin.
Vincent Persichetti writes that: Chords by perfect fourth are ambiguous in that, like all chords built by equidistant intervals (diminished seventh chords or augmented triads), any member can function as the root. The indifference of this rootless harmony to tonality places the burden of key verification upon the voice with the most active melodic line. So, maybe Ted assumed most of us would make the highest voice the most active melodic line. Just a guess
Been studying Chord Chemistry for years but seeing him play opens it up. Still mind blowing!
This is it, THE GRAND FINALE of the seminar (2 hours worth of footage)!
Thanks for making this available!
I can't thank you enough for all this... and I also can't thank Ted enough for having been such a great communicator of his great musical ideas.
the whole seminar was excellent. Ted was/is a true master. thanks for posting his life's work.
Breathtaking. Life enhancing. Deepest gratitude for this series.
"EVIDENCE OF A LIFETIME OF DEDICATION"...🥂

@closetome because they don't have a real root sense, they are usually used to harmonize lines over a prevailing tonality.

Did Ted listen to Johnny Smith?
Why didn't Ted releae more albums?
@lightcharge1 Of course, thanks.
Bert Backerak idunno how to spell it atm
@@MrUrech Bacharach or was this just a kibbitz?
And Bacharach's teacher he mentions, by the way, was composer Darius Milhaud, one of Les Six in early 20th c. France.
Why harmonize 4th chords from the top down why not from the bottom up?
Take your pick !
