The Magic Chord In Jazz

Описание: The 13th dominant chord is one of the most powerful and versatile jazz guitar chords you can learn. This shape can imply a maj7#11 chord, outline an altered scale, or bring out Dorian and Lydian sounds in your comping and improvisation. By moving this chord shape around the neck—not strictly diatonically—you’ll unlock new jazz voicings that expand your sound and add modern harmonic colors to your playing.

In this jazz guitar lesson, we’ll break down how to use 13th dominant chord voicings to:
• Add rich textures to your jazz comping and chord progressions.
• Create tension and release by shifting the shape for an outside jazz sound.
• Explore the altered scale, Dorian mode, and Lydian mode through one versatile voicing.
• Build fresh jazz chord melodies and comp like a piano player on guitar.

You’ll learn practical ways to integrate the 13th dominant into your jazz improvisation, jazz comping, and arrangements so you can unlock modern voicings, expand your harmonic vocabulary, and take your jazz guitar playing to the next level.
