    • @alphie2056
      @alphie2056 4 роки тому +25

      Ok so:
      Chords stacked ontop of each other mean both of them are played and the one below the top one is played in bass. This is called a poly chord (poly meaning multiple)
      When a chord like Abmaj/C is shown, it means instead of the root of the chord being on the bottom of that chord the thing after the slash is so in this case, Instead of being spelt Ab, C, Eb, it’s spelt C, Ab, Eb.
      This is called an inversion

      F/G means F triad over G bass. It’s an unfortunately confusing way to write it because we’re supposed to read the F as a three-note chord and the G as a single note. These are hybrids.
      There are also polychords, in which both letters represent triads, but the letters must be oriented vertically, not diagonally as in hybrids.
      E-
      -
      F
      Would be an E minor triad over an F triad, so basically an F Major 7 with 9 and #11.
      I hope this helps. Hit me back with follow-up questions.

Vermutlich hat Collier eine Dezimen-Spanne der Hände wie viele Jazz-Pianisten. Man denke an die Dezimen-Bassfiguren von Art Tatum, oder Oscar Peterson.
