That was a GREAT lesson. I haven't yet run across the method yet of how you built that Dm7 from a C scale even though I know the Dorian mode for figuring out scales.
@CustodioRichmond an F/G# chord is an inversion chord, meaning it's just an F chord, but the chord starts with G# as the first note played. Typically though, F is made up of F A C notes, which is what you would be playing, but just adding a G# as the first note played.
Knowing if something is Major or minor is something you'll have to learn on your own. It's pretty fundamental and I suggest hiring an instructor to help you with this.
@CustodioRichmond Cmaj7 and Cm have different notes, and different sounds. For chord labels with a slash (such as F/G#), the stuff to the left of the slash is the chord, the stuff to the right of the slash is the bass (the lowest note of the chord). If a bass player is in the room, you can ignore the stuff to the right of the slash.
Excellent presentation! (Man I wish I had your right hand.) This is an interesting subject. I have never heard this explained so well. I quite worrying about chord names a long time ago. Enharmonic spelling can be a pain sometimes. Am7-C6 same notes. Now I just play the melody and think of the harmony I want to hear(which changes depending on my mood).
You have given me some interesting ideas. Thanks for posting this. It goes straight to my favorites.
Great lesson!
