About this masterclass

Mike Godette extends the voicing formulas from Unorthodox 7th Chords (Part I) to seven additional 7th-chord qualities, then takes them through the chord scales of harmonic and melodic minor. Each chord quality is broken down with all of its voicings and inversions, and how they function intervallically.

What's covered

  • Unorthodox voicings for Major 7#11, Major 7#5, Minor (Maj7), Dominant 7b5, Dominant 7#5, Diminished (Maj7), and Diminished 7 chords
  • All voicings and inversions within each chord quality, and their intervallic structure
  • Running isolated formulas through harmonic minor and melodic minor chord scales — five chord scales for each
  • How chord scales and Roman numerals work in the harmonic and melodic minor scales

For intermediate-to-advanced players ready to push past the four common 7th-chord types into the more colorful corners of minor-key harmony. Running time: 42 minutes. 11 pages of PDFs included.
