In this section we will use our open and closed position chords and their inversions to play music. Begin by singing the bass note and playing our chosen progression of F, C, Am, G. Once this feels comfortable, use open position inversion to play these chords differently. The inversions give melodic inspiration and options and they make the location of our position in the major scale pop out. Experiment with different combinations of open inversions to get different sounds and colors.

Lesson Summary

In this section, we explore playing music using open and closed position chords along with their inversions. We start by singing the bass note and playing a progression of F, C, Am, G. Once comfortable, we can use open position inversions to play the chords differently, providing melodic inspiration. We will utilize all the knowledge discussed in this mini course to create music, incorporating inversions and exploring chord progressions.
