    UA-cam needed someone like you! A good guitar teacher who actually knows all of what he is talking about, and knows how to resume it in shorts videos. Very very helpful. Keep doing what you do, because I just subscribed. c:

    "the 9 is the same as the 2" Thanks for saying this. Most of the videos which show what the notes are in a 9 chord don't use this nomenclature but it's the easiest way to understand what the ninth is when building the chord.

    Love this chord! Would love to see a video tutorial on the bit from 5:08-5:55. The 1 to 5 chord, I think it is EMaj 9 to B dominant 9? Love the strumming and words too, lol, and would love to see a break down of that.

  • @namebrand14
    @namebrand14 7 років тому +2

    I would love to see a video where you explain in depth the type of stuff that your are going through at 1:36 . Why is it that the 5 chord is able to be a dominant 9th? Would it break the "rules" if I played a different chord as dominant 9th? Finally, Is there any practical way to use 7th and 9th chords for improvising or spicing up songs that don't typically have them?

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  7 років тому +3

      Great question David. So the reason the 5 chord is the most practical place to use a dominant 7 and 9 chord is because that chord requires a 'flat 7' to build it. The way it works out is that if you take the notes of a scale but start on the 5th degree (so in the key of C let's take the G) you end up with the exact same 7 notes of the major scale for that particular note, with one exception, a flattened 7th. So the difference between G and C is the 7th note in G is an F#, where C has an F.
      Now even though it would technically break the 'rules' to play it anywhere else, it can still sound great, you're just borrowing a note from a different key, sometimes it works , sometimes it doesn't, you just have to experiment and see what you like. So don't be afraid to try it anywhere and see what happens!

    I love your channel, it really helps me 'hear' things Ive been listening to for years with fresh ears- is the dom 9 the funky "Crunge" chord from led zep 5?

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  7 років тому +3

      Really good ear! Technically I believe Page is playing the highest 3 strings on the guitar, which would definitely line up with the dom9 voicing from the video, but I don't think he's playing the A and D string, so if you want to technical those are like higher voiced minor, minor 7 chords BUT when combined with JPJ's incredible bass playing, when he hits the root note there are times when both players are combining to get more of that 9 chord sound you're hearing. :)

    @raycooke2510 Місяць тому

    A very clear and great tutorial 👍
    When explaining a dominant 7th chord by building up the notes from a major scale.
    Would it not be worthwhile stating that the dominant chords' eg G7 etc, isn't a chord built from the Key of "G, It comes from, and is therefore built from, the notes within the Key of "C".
    Just a thought.

  • @patrickhlavinka6364

    Theyre great for resolving on another root. I immediately hear a resolution on an Emin7 even though it's G major. That's just the jazz in me.

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  7 років тому

      Right on man, it's cool how different people interpret resolutions differently. I'm a big fan of resolving everything on the 4 personally.

    • @patrickhlavinka6364
      @patrickhlavinka6364 7 років тому

      Really? Seems like a 4th is unresolving. In my ear at least. It seems like its gotta go one way or the other. I like to solo on a 4 chord though for sure. Mostly for tension.

  • @ciaranmarshall597
    @ciaranmarshall597 6 років тому +1

    Great video, but hold on.. why is an E9 chord the 5 chord if Emaj9 is the 1 chord? So confused.

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  6 років тому

      Well E9 is actually shorthand for Edominant9. The dominant chords are always the 5 chord in any key. So like in the key of C, G9 would be a dominant chord you can use, etc. Major 9 chords can always be used on the 1 chord. Hope that makes sense!

    • @ciaranmarshall597
      @ciaranmarshall597 6 років тому

      Kinda... but what key is that progression in? If the 5 chord is E9 then isn't the 1 chord A? Not sure how the 1 and 5 chords are both variants of E!
