    I never try to think my borrowed chords through chord progressions first but I write a melody, and then if in my mind I hear a minor chord for the particular note in the melody... it doesn't matter what key or mode I'm in... i will put that god damn minor chord in there and that might or might not be a borrowed chord depending what key rest of my chords are from.
    It works very well... so trust your ears and remember to practice chord type recognition so you know what chord type you hear in your head. :)

  • @edmccormack8032
    @edmccormack8032 Před 3 lety +7

    Also, because anything you play can be found to be a chord substitution of some mode (whether it be from Ionian, double harmonic major, or some more obscure scale), is there any advantage to thinking "which mode should I borrow from" when composing? (As opposed to thinking "let's try out some random chords and see which ones are cool").

  • @Redwane-Music
    @Redwane-Music Před 5 lety +2

    You are definitely a savant as far as music theory and an excellent teacher. I have a question regarding the E Major in C key and the B Major in the G key, I heard you saying that they are borrowed chords but you say also that they are here as 5th of 6th chords. I understand if you look at them as 5th of 6th but I am no able to tell if they are also borrowed chords and if so where is the E Major borrowed from and B Major.
    Are you perhaps borrowing them from some modes that you have written on the chart?
    If so, I would appreciate if you clarify and make sure also in your talk to explain exactly where they are coming from, because otherwise it is very confusing. I would also recommend you to slow down to not overlook points that seem to you very obvious because of your knowledge because you may easily think that we are always on the same track, but I am not as far as I am concerned , I am still a beginner in theory after many decades of playing and making music the hard way :)
    Thank you for answering. and sorry for the remarks. you are the best.

  • @reedendearing

  • @edmccormack8032
    @edmccormack8032 Před 3 lety

    Regarding borrowed chords vs. secondary dominants that resolve deceptively: Can a chord be either depending on context? If so, what is the context that distinguishes each as such, respectively?

  • @DiegoElz
    @DiegoElz Před 4 lety +1

    In the I, III, IV, iv progression from radio head, the iv going to the tonic chord works so well as a resolution. Does that changes the iv function from a subdominant to an actual dominant or a leading tone?

  • @Zedacuequinha
    @Zedacuequinha Před 2 lety

    In the G B C Cm, I always saw B as being borrowed from the parallel major of the relative minor ( Eminor -E major) not necessarily a secondary dominant to VI
    (Since it is the V of the E major, maybe it’s the same thing I guess?)

  • @TheRealSandleford
    @TheRealSandleford Před rokem

    How about Misty? You get the 2/5 for the 4 chord then the 4 becomes minor to the b7 chord which is like another 2/5 but that one seems like it should resolve to the b3 but instead resolves to the 1...... maybe because depending on the inversion, the melody note on top could be shared because one or the flat 3 have some of the same notes.....

  • @andrewizz
    @andrewizz Před 6 lety

    So... can the parallel/relative thing be applied to modes? I mean, something like the "relative lydian" of C major is F lydian / the "parallel lydian" of C major is C lydian?

  • @mr.z9609
    @mr.z9609 Před 6 lety +7

    To me, the B major in Creep is not a borrowed chord. How could it be? It doesn't come from a parallel key. Neither G major nor G minor - nor any diatonic mode on G - has a naturally occurring B major in it. In this song, the B major is functioning a secondary dominant in the relative minor, E minor. Instead of resolving to the 'i' of E minor (AKA the vi of G major), it resolves to the 'VI' of E minor (AKA the 'IV' of G major). It's just a deceptive cadence.
    The C minor, yes, is a borrowed chord. But the B major isn't.

    • @irmatorres5879
      @irmatorres5879 Před 5 lety +4

      The BM chord is borrowed from G Ionian augmented, 3rd mode of harmonic minor, and BM is its 3rd chord which is built on phrygian major, 5th mode of e harmonic minor, and is its dominant so it functions as both depending on how you utilize it. His second example has the BM resolving to e-, so it functions as a secondary dominant, but the first example is used as a borrowed chord birthing from G Ionian #5 and goes straight to C, kind of like a chromatic mediant :)

    "​I missed the way to construct parallel minor." Natural minor with the same root. G major, the parallel minor is G aeolian.

  • @tarakeenan5849
    @tarakeenan5849 Před 5 lety

    Why did you write out c aeolian twice when analysing the parallel modes that you can borrow from? C aeolian is the parallel minor of c major. Also the b maj chord in creep is not a borrowed chord. It is non-functioning secondary dominant i.e. V/vi (E harmonic minor).

    Were any of my favourite musicians thinking about this when making my favourite works? Pink Floyd, Clapton, The Beatles, The Who, etc. Can't imagine fights in Abbey Road over secondary dominants or diminished 7ths or supertonic exoghouls or whatever. lol. I dunno, maybe I underestimate them, but I always assumed they just jammed and messed around and experimented until they got to something they like. Same with guitar solos. I can't believe anyone has the mental bandwidth to actually be thinking of scales and flat 6ths and things on a run up and down the neck. They've just played enough to get a kind of muscle memory for what sounds off. And some people don't care, and still get away with it. It's a bit like some visual art - crazy people go to great lengths to explain/analyse and justify the greatness of some popular piece of work, only to speak to the artist who just painted a thing they liked the look of, and were pleased that someone else liked it, too.

    @maxsignori7660 Před 6 lety

    Let's say I have to improvise in C and there's a borrowed chord from Cmin. What scales can I use on it? Would C still work in this context? On the spot I would say no, go for C aeolian, but you never know. At least I don't... (Yes, I'm just starting to learn all this stuff, I like to experiment with my guitar and a looper pedal, so I'll give it a try when I have some time, it's really good fun)

      It’s in with the chord substitutions. It’s also part of the series of rules. I don’t call them borrowed chords in the book. That is a term that is used more in classical music to describe a momentary modulation.

    • @herrschnupke4044
      @herrschnupke4044 Před 6 lety

      If we had G, B, and then Em, things would be clear, cause then the B chord acts as a secondary dominant of Em. B is the 5 of Em. I suppose it still has the same function as a secondary dominant but we're having a leading note resolution from B to C not a 5 to 1. (B to Em)

    • @kenlee5015
      @kenlee5015 Před 6 lety

      I believe (from an earlier lesson) it would be V/vi (5 of 6) or the 5 taken from the Em, assuming the song is in G. I believe it would normally include the seventh and lead back to the Em, though. ??

      Hi!
      I'm not a musician but I think it is borrowed from the C harmonic major scale. The notes of the scale are C D E F G Aflat B
      The E major chord contains the notes E Gsharp wich is an enarmonic to Aflat and B.
      Both minor and major qualities can be derived from the the 3rd notes of this scale .

      I’m not 100% sure, but I think I can try to answer. The B major chord can come from any parallel mode that contains it, usually. Since it’s in the key of G, we need to look for a parallel mode that contains the B major chord. We look at G Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, aeolian, and Locrian. Lydian and mixolydian contain the B (the 3 of G in G-A-B-C-D-E-F#; remember which notes are flatted to derive the other modes). but lydian & mixo are using B as a minor, so I don’t think that works. We have to get it from somewhere else. Its the V of vi (secondary dominant), because it’s the V of E, which is in the key of G major. Other than that, I think it’s just any borrowed chord from a key that contains that chord: E ionian, E lydian, F# ionian, F# dorian... etc. let me know what you think of this answer! Edit: Rick does finally answer this question 37:48 - it IS the V of vi as I said :)

      It comes from the relative harmonic minor scale (E harmonic Minor which has that D# in it).
