The first in a series of screencasts designed to tie in with my book. This one covers really elementary harmonic principles - the difference between harmony and unison, how chords are constructed and how chords work under a melody as part of a song. If you’re working from the book, this screencast covers the material right at the start of Part 1.
If you’re not reading the book, no problem - you’ll still be able to use the information in the video. Also, don’t worry about learning the actual chord shapes that I’m playing. My fingers are moving fairly quickly here, so you might struggle to copy what I’m doing. The main thing is is listen carefully and grasp the overall principles I’m talking about.
If there’s anything you’re not quick sure about, feel free to post a question in the comment thread.
