Triads for Guitar
A Complete Guide to Triads from Major, Melodic Minor, & Harmonic Minor Scale Harmony
This extensive video course explores the four triad types (Augmented, Major, Minor, & Diminished) on the four adjacent string sets (321, 432, 543, 654), and also includes voice-leading exercises through the Cycle of Fourths in Major, Melodic Minor, & Harmonic Minor.
Guided improvisations using two-string permutations, & patterns that examine the entire fret-board, are also included.
Though this course includes music theory, its primary focus is on the practicalities of recognizing, memorizing, & applying triadic harmony, in all keys & positions, on the guitar.
Ear-training & improvisation are strongly emphasized.
Triads are one of the most productive investments of your practice time, regardless of style, genre, or level.
Expanding into harmonized scales & chord cycles will provide a strong foundation for mastery of the harmonic progressions found in any genre.
Your reading, aural skills, and technique will continually improve if you integrate triad inversions & harmonized scales through chord cycles into your daily practice; the course closes with a detailed six-week practice plan to show you how.
