Q.
A. Thats not very specific but the only relationship i know is that G#m7b5 is subbing or using as voicing for an E9 chord. Does happen in the Blues. Can use Min7b5 chords so that voice leading is real close to the next ninth chord when it changes to the IV chord from the I. Eg: G#m7b5 | A9 ||
Min7b5 is a 9th chord. E G# B D F#.
................................... |--Min7b5--|
I play gtr so no root but piano can play root with left hand as you seem to be doing.
Background Chords for Jazz Piano Solo?
Q. I have a solo that I need to come up with for Jazz Band. I listen to a recording with a solo in it of that specific song, but it is incredibly complicated and contains some fancy things I don't know how to do. Before I move on to learning those things however, I need to find out what scales I'm supposed to be soloing on. The chords are Eb9 for one measure, Ab9 for one measure, Eb9 for one measure, Bbmin7 for 1/2 a measure, Eb9 for 1/2 a measure, Ab9 for one measure, Ab9 for one measure, Eb9 for one measure, C7(B9) for one measure (wtfrick?), Fmin7 for one measure, Bb+7(b9) for one measure (holy crap, what the heck!?), Eb9 for 1/2 a measure, Gb9 for 1/2 a measure, F9 for 1/2 a measure, E9 for 3/8 a measure, and Eb9 for 1/8 of the last measure. I have no idea how to solo over something like this as my past songs simply said "Blues Scale" or "Dorian Scale." Now, what I imagine it is is that I need to just play an Eb SOMETHING throughout the whole thing, as while the chords changed on the other solos, I stayed on an F Dorian.
My second question is, is there something that will allow me to arrange these chords and play drums, chords, and a bass line in the background so I have something to practice to?
A. This is basically an Eb blues. So try the following
Eb blues scale
Eb mixolydian scale
Eb minor pentatonic
Just try these out and follow your ear.
F Dorian or any F minor scale is also a pretty good choice, as their relationship to Eb dominant and Ab dominant will work to help you pick notes that sound good.
BTW, if you know the name of the song, you might be able to find a Jamey Aebersold play-along track that you can use to practice your solo on. Band In A Box works well too. Or see if you can find a freebie MIDI track of the song on the internet. Or just play the chords into a tape recorder.
does anyone know how to decipher this?
Q. its some sort of formula, possibly musical, extra musical... hopefully someone out there knows how to or could jus do it for me...
Bm(+9)/D/A/E9/C#m(sus4)/E/F#///
Whilst im here could any one explain this to me..
C6H12O6->2CH3CH2OH+2CO2
A. The first line is a group of chords, I mean, a set of notes played together in an instrument as in a guitar, piano, etc. That notation system is the way musicians write and read accompanying music (tablatures or just tabs).
Each letter from A to G is a note or a major general chord, letter "m" stands for "minor", numbers refer to variations or additional notes introduced in the major chord, # means the chord is a sharp note, and sus4 means the chord is a special type known as "suspended fourt", a common variation.
That second line looks like a reaction describing a degradation of a sugar (glucose) to produce ethanol (alcohol) along the poduction of carbon dioxide, in a process known as fermentation.
