Well done. We have sus chords in jazz but we don't (or at least I don't) seem to look as closely as you.

Thanks for watching. I do find that in a lot of standards, instead of sus chords, they put in a chord substitution.

Feels like Don Moen is teaching..😁

Don Moen! I haven't thought about him for a while. First time anyone has compared me to him, but I can kind of see it. (Thanks for watching and for your comment!)

When you say playing in a different voicing, does that mean in different inversions? Still kind of on the newer side. Sorry for what might be an obvious question.

@athomewithmusic8698

No need to apologize, it’s a good question! I probably should have said inversions instead of voicing. When you invert a chord, you are changing the voicing, but you can also change the voicing of a chord without inverting it. For example, you could play a C major chord using middle C, E and G close together. But if you add a low C and G in the left hand, you’ve changed the voicing but have not inverted the chord. Hope that makes sense!

@@athomewithmusic8698Thanks! I love this lesson. I’m at the stage in my development that at times im having to really stop and see what you’re doing and think it through. When you move up to different inversions, it’s stop and see again. Also, it’s a little hard at times to see what notes you’re hitting.

On amazing grace, this should not be hard. But for the life of me I cannot figure out what you’re doing

If you are new to the use of sus chords, it can be a little confusing at first. Let me see if I can help. Think of playing this song with a chord change on almost every beat. So in the first measure, instead of playing a G major chord, you start with Gsus on beat one and then quickly resolve to G major on beat two. All of the sus chords in this example fall on beat one of the measure and most quickly resolve on beat two. In measure 8 the sus chord is held for an entire bar before resolving in the next measure. (Dsus - to D). Then in measure 15 the D7sus chord is held for two beats before resolving to D7. In the last two measures we have a series of three sus chords, one on each beat, before ending on G major. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.

I'd just like to point out that ur saying ur chords wrong, re; the 251 in C ,,,,its Dm,G7,C not just G ,this could be very confusing to someone whose just learning this stuff,smh ,geez man pull it together, if you dont know what ur talking about why even try to do a tutorial,

Thanks for your comment. You are quite correct in stating that the 2 5 1 progression in C major would be Dm, G7, C. In investigating other tutorials that address the 2 5 1 progression, I have found that many of them start by presenting the progression in its simplest form (i.e. Dm, G, C). Then you can add 7th chords (e.g. Dm7, G7, Cmaj7). You can then make those three chords as complex as you like.

@@athomewithmusic8698 there's nothing complex about it,,,,its basic functional harmony, you could just own the error (it's a big one) or deny the fact that you obviously dont really understand western music theory,that 5/7 to 1 cadence IS EVERYTHING, do you understand what's actually going on fundamentally and harmonically, do you know why its called a dominant 7,?you should take some time to further research how it all works ,let me know if you have questions I'd be happy to answer if I can 🤓
