💬 LESSON DESCRIPTION:
This is the first video in a new series that I'm starting called "Make it a Chord Melody."
We're going to turn a bunch of tunes into chord melodies, and we're going to talk about improvising with them too.
In this video, I turn the "Autumn Leaves" melody into a chord melody.
Defined simply, a chord melody is when every instance of a melody is supported by some sort of chord shape.
In the video, I go through a process that I’ve formulated over many years for playing melodies with chords at the same time.
It's an amazing sound.
Creating chord melodies is a fantastic fretboard knowledge study, whether we just want to play chord melodies, create fuller solo guitar arrangements, or if we want to hear the harmony of a melody in the same way that piano players get to do.
The process of creating a chord melody helps me deeply internalize a tune and its harmony so I really feel the music.
It’s an extremely valuable practice to dig into, no matter what kind of music we’re making.
I hope you enjoyed this lesson about chord melodies on guitar and found it beneficial. Let me know what you thought in the comments.
Thanks! :)
