Re: Re-tuning from Solo to "inverted" Dorian (with chords!)
Edwin , what an excellent teacher you are! I thank you for that. Consider the image below. A saxophonist? A woman's face? In the re-tuning of the original post, I was so focused on the "first position Dorian D" that I did not consider the "Classical tuning" in first position C -- which would put th...

Re: Re-tuning from Solo to either "normal" or "inverted" Natural Minor
Songs in A natural minor outnumber those in D natural minor. Therefore I offer a transposed version of the post directly above. Some common chordal progressions for the key of A natural minor are: • i – VI* – VII (Am – F* – G) • i – iv – VII (Am – Dm – G) • i – iv – v* (Am – Dm – Em*) • i – VI* – II...

Re: Re-tuning from Solo to either "normal" or "inverted" Natural Minor

This change permits us to use the low end for lots of tasty chords that are pertinent to the harp's melodic key of D natural minor. Some common chordal progressions for the key of D natural minor are:...
