Lesson Description:
This week's lesson is a comprehensive guide to quartal harmony and quartal chords on the guitar. Quartal harmony is one of my favorite sounds and this is my favorite lesson I've made so far—I'm really proud of it! I explain what quartal harmony is, how to use quartal voicings in the context of modal harmony, how to use them over normal chords, how Miles Davis used modal harmony and quartal harmony, and more! My favorite part is at the end when I show how to harmonize the minor pentatonic scale with quartal chord shape inversions. They sound completely unique and amazing! As usual there are plenty of examples, practice suggestions, and clear diagrams so you can hear and see what's going on, & so you can practice the awesome sound of quartal harmony for yourself. :)

Quartal harmony can either sound really weird and off putting, or completely refreshing. Personally I find it to perfectly hit the spot after a stretch of playing or listening to mainstream music or music that uses functional harmony. What I love about quartal harmony and quartal chords is how they can actually be used in the context of normal songs and not only in the context of modal harmony or modal jazz.
