How to Outline Chords in Db (Flat)

Video Transcript

Now that we've taken a look at D flat major and E flat minor, you might say to yourself, well, they both use the same scale, how are they really deciphered from each other. And what's really important about it is the tone centers. If you look at D flat major, one, three, five, and seven, these are your most important notes, are the one, the three, and the seven. Now when you look at E flat minor, the one, the three, and the seven fall in completely different areas of the scale. It falls more on the offbeat?s, right. This is right on here. E flat minor falls more on the nine and eleven and the thirteen of D flat right. So we're outlining different textures inside the scale, so, we're putting more emphasis on these notes rather than these notes. And you can hear that difference, right. Sounds like we're playing two chords. D flat major, E flat minor, D flat major, even though I'm soloing with the same scale on my left hand. So it's really outlining these different notes and really making sure that you take the specific three and the seven and really outline those. And that's what really defines the difference between these two chords.
