I have a video on some different voicings for altered chords (ua-cam.com/video/Wbf2E-AQ3sM/v-deo.html). I don't have one yet just explaining the functions and purpose of altered chords... I'll add it to my list 😀
Hi Simon, this was fantastic! I've seen a lot of videos lately on 2-5-1 here. My question is why the focus on this progression specifically. Does this help as practice for beginners?
The 251 the most commonly found chord progression in jazz. If you master this chord progression, you will be halfway to learning a majority of jazz standards. If jazz is what you're interested in, then I definitely recommend focusing on this progression 😀
@@Piano_Pig Oh my God I'm sorry to say, but I can't stand jazz! I think that means I'll have to stay far away from these exercises! What exercises would you recommend if my ultimate goal was to play Beethoven.
@Ajay Joseph As William said above, it's a great idea to get familiar with chords and start anaylzing classical pieces to see what harmony they are using. Also, have a look at some Hanon exercises, they are great for building finger strength and dexterity.
@William Fryburger Thanks William, this is great insight, I've only started to delve into the technicalities of playing the piano, when previously I concentrated on learning pieces rather than focusing on theory and technique.
@@Piano_Pig Thanks for the reply Simon, I'll be sure to check out Hanon to build dexterity and strength. This is great material, keep doing what you do. Thanks once again!
Do you mean an Fmaj7? If so, then yes that voicing can function as either an Fmaj7 or a Dm9. It has all the chord tones a Dm9 has so it can be used as either.
I hope you all enjoy this one! Let me know if you would like to see a similar video on the minor 251 :)

Oh... I am lost. What is a 251? Maybe this is an advance level stuff.
I have a video explaining all about them! ua-cam.com/video/BjN2dU83Y9w/v-deo.html

Why is it a rootless Dm7? Isn’t it just a F7 chord?
Do you mean an Fmaj7? If so, then yes that voicing can function as either an Fmaj7 or a Dm9. It has all the chord tones a Dm9 has so it can be used as either.
A different instrument(usually bass) would play the root in this context I think.
