New Seventh: Bass Chord Arpeggios

Video Transcript

"Okay, so let's see where these seventh chords fit in on paper. Okay. So remember, we had the one chord that was major, the two is minor, three was minor, four is major, five was major, but seven - you can see this is going to be our dominant. This is where we'll use the dominant seventh arpeggio. There's the minor six, and then the diminished. Now this will obviously become a half diminished seventh, okay. Well now over here. Our major sevenths will occur on the one chord and the four chord. Our minor sevenths can occur here and they will especially occur on the two. They can also occur on the three, and they can occur on the six. And we have the dominant here. So really it's major, major seven, minor seven, minor seven, major seven, dominant seven, minor seven, half diminished seven, and back to major seven. So try to remember that pattern when you're playing and applying it to all sorts of different keys. So you can understand which kinds of chords you'll be outlining if someone tells you they're playing in a certain key, using your seventh chords."
