The good of New Age penalization crapper be separated into the 3 parts melody, harmony, and rhythm. The agreement characteristic crapper be intellection of only as chords. Now New Age penalization does ingest destined pianissimo chords more than others.
One chord I'm inclined of is the 9th chord. All this effectuation is that the ordinal state of the bit is utilised to create the chord with. For example, a set shapely from the C Major bit is spelled - c-e-g. If we add the ordinal state in the bit (b) we intend a ordinal chord - C Major 7. It's spelled - c-e-g-b. Simple enough.
Now if we move up the bit we module impact the interval C. The incoming state after this is the 9th state (d). It's also the 2nd state in the scale. This crapper intend unclear but it's meet a grouping of counting. The C Major 9 chord is spelled c-e-g-b-d. This chord has a rattling flush good and is utilised ofttimes in New Age music. It crapper be utilised as an ostinato, or as busted chord or arpeggio.
A exemplary New Age chord advancement is ultimate and commonly stays within the bit it came from. We crapper endeavor C Maj. - F Maj. and G Maj. and by using meet these 3 pianissimo chords, contend and create in the New Age style.
In fact, in the online warning Ocean Dreams, this is just what is done. Except in this lesson, I decimate the ordinal talk from the chord and endeavor an interval in the mitt hand.
By eliminating the ordinal tone, I'm creating a more rural or New Age sound. The ordinal talk is utilised mainly in Jazz penalization but crapper be utilised in New Age penalization as well.
Once the mitt assistance is down I add in tones from the C Major scale, especially the ordinal talk (d) and the New Age good is apparent. Other pianissimo chords utilised in New Age penalization module be careful in another articles after on.
