I need help with G minor piano chords?

Q. One of the well known chords in G minor with the piano is GM, E flat, B flat, F. I want the chord to go down again after the B flat instead of up, what chord do I use?


I don't actually play the piano but I know what the chord would sound like, so as you can imagine it would be very hard for me to work out. This is for a composition I am making


Thanks, please note all possible chords that would go down after that!
I'm playing in G minor which isn't jazzy lol, but thanks :)

A. I don't know what you're trying to sound like, but here are some jazzy/gospel sounding chords.

Key: Left Hand / Right Hand

â I would use an Am 7 #5 after the Bb back to the Gm.

Am 7 #5: G-D-F / G-C-F

â Also after the Bb, I would use an A half dim 7 chord back to the G.

LH: A-C# / RH: F#-A-C-Eb

â Or a ii-V-i back to Gm from the Bb.

Am7 b5 â D #5#9 â Gm

Am7 b5: A-C# / G-C-Eb

D #5#9: D-A-C / F#-Bb-C-F

I hope this helps.

Original Question

What notes are in a G-7 chord on the piano?
Q. I know that a normal G7 chord is G, B, D, and F, but what is a G-7 chord? I saw it in a jazz Christmas music book and a normal G7 sounds odd.

A. In jazz music, the G-7 is simply a "G minor seventh chord".

The G-7 or G minor seventh chord is composed of the notes of: G, B-flat, D, and F.

The G-7 and G7 are the same except that the G-7 has a lowered 3rd.

Original Question
