EKS Lesson Five Introducing inversions
EKS Lesson Five Introducing inversions
The D chord inversion we played when changing from A to D is quite different from the inversion we choose when we change from G to D. This highlights the fact that we need to be able to recall the notes in our chords and form them according to the last chord. It is totally dependent on the chord before and the note selection in that chord.
To practise this, we have a short chord progression to play, using the economy of movement we have previously discussed.
Look at the next exercise and develop your ability to move between each of these chords, using the minimum of effort and ensuring that you can remember each of the notes in each chord. It is absolutely essential to be able to move smoothly through chord changes using appropriate and musical Inversions.
You may wish to adjust your fingering because the stretches have changed and we have recommended an alternative fingering below each chord in the progression.
