It’s been brought to my attention that one of my chord changes is incorrect. That second minor chord of the bridge should be a dominant chord. In which case, it is the V/iii. I’m sorry if it confused anyone. It’s just an error on my part.

As I think write down the Roman number for chord chart is more make sense during the day of listening. The next day I try to sing it in all 12 keys, my brain keep spinning what is the next chord, and it's burnt, but it is only the first key changed!! Lucky you've recorded this video! :D Write the scale and diatonic triads down side by side the chord chart help me so much!!

@AimeeNolte
4 жыл бұрын
It’s mostly because of its function. It absolutely functions as the dominant chord, leading us to the C minor resolution. At the beginning of the bridge, when we are going back-and-forth between those two minor chords, it’s a little bit out there. It’s kind of anti-functional. You wouldn’t probably see it in western classical music. That’s why I chose to call it a vii when I suppose, technically it should’ve been the v/iii. There might be others with opinions about this. I hope that they share them. Thanks for watching. :-)

G maj), then closed my eyes and told to my mind "now that's a C major"😀and started to play the new key with eyes closed; it worked for me and then helped me (in an uncounscious way) to think in steps(intervals). Watching the video, I am so glad to see I got the right way. 😘 (even though for a while, in every key i played my mind was in C major, that bug fixed).

Hello Aimee,. I love your videos so much and I am hoping, given your education and experience, that you might be able to put this question to rest ? I realize this post is at least 3 years old but I am hoping that you will happen to see it: Should (or shouldn't) a singer use the term 'register' (or 'range') rather than 'key' ie: 'I can't sing in that key" when speaking about their vocal range ? I've heard many singers over the years, both in person and in videos, say that they "... can't sing in this or that 'key" or '''thats not in my key, I need to sing it in a lower/higher key" etc.'. So, the question is: Isn't it that they can sing in the 'key' (keys are either major or minor etc) but maybe the song isn't in the 'RANGE' that singer is comfortable with ? Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated !!
@AimeeNolte

Yeah, you are right. It’s dumb to say that you can’t seeing in any certain key because different songs have different melodies and just because you can’t sing one song in the key of F doesn’t mean you won’t be able to sing another song in that key. It’s better to say, I can’t go below this certain note, or above this certain note.

Jazz musicians talk about their chord progressions in numerical terms, such as the "2 5 1". Why aren't jazz chord charts in fake books written in the Nashville Number System or Roman numeral system, the way they do in Nashville recording studios, as you did for this song? That way, one chart serves for any key.

I would love for you to do more on this topic. I get what you're doing here but when I try to do it myself with more complicated chord progressions I get tangled up. I get what you mean you talk about a five of a five, but sometimes a whole line of a song will be in a temporary key (like a ii-V-I of a 5) and I can't imagine how you'd describe that. Also what do you do when you're in the key of C and you have a Bb major chord or an E major chord? I've looked a little bit into the Nashville system, and I know the point of it is to describe the chords in a key-agnostic way. But it doesn't really capture the inner patterns (like the tempoary ii-V-I). I'd love for you to do a video where you describe how you think about this. I would really like to be able to transpose a song on the spot. Thanks!
@hardinmichael1981
3 жыл бұрын
Try writing it both ways. Basically under the original key chords write the numbers for the new/ temporary key chords. In other words the same chords will have two key functions. For example, in Blue Bossa, the Ebm9 can be thought of as both 1m7 (1 because Eb is the relative major of Cminor) and the same chord can be thought of as 2m7 of b7(Db) as part of the 251 going to Db. I think there is a formal notation procedure in the Nashville number system for these temporary chord borrowings but I forget it at the moment. Anyway hope this helps. Also don’t get too caught up in thinking of the temporary key as a new “1” chord, because it really is only temporary and not a true modulation.

Is it alright to transpose parts of a song instead of the whole song? I want to adapt the music to an instrument for solo that doesn’t have the range needed. Sometimes I need to transpose down a fourth in some parts, but everything still sounds good when played together. Am I breaking any music laws here?
@AimeeNolte

It doesn’t make sense to only transpose some parts of a song. I mean…it CAN, but it has to be done carefully. If you want to put the bridge a fourth down, you have to modulate in a logical way to GET there and to get back when you come out of it. It takes a lot of skill to be able to do that.

Probably not necessary to do all of the keys for an entire transcription of a solo, but depending on your instrument I would take your favorite line from a solo and transpose THAT in all keys until you can play it smoothly. I don’t think this is necessary for vocalists. They don’t have different buttons to push and fingerings to figure out.

You can think of it as a VI7, but it does help to think of chords not only as what they are, but what their function is, and in this case the 6 chord functions as a secondary dominant leading to the ii chord.
