Measures 9-10 for Playing a Fake Book Melody in G Major

Video Transcript

Now we're going to take a look at measures nine and ten, and we have E minor which we've learned before, A minor is the first chord we learned, now B half diminished which is a B with a circle, and the circle has a slash through it, that's half diminished, that's found out of "G Major, My First Fake Book" if you look at minor two-fives, and the minor two-fives in G major, this B half diminished will come up. And then you have E seven, which is our last chord of the day, and E seven is derived from A major, so if you search up "A Major: My First Fake Book" E seven will come up, and then we have this nice melody line here, all quarter notes here, three, one, or three, two, one, seven, four, three, five, four, five, four, five. And then so on and so on. So it sounds like this. So again if you look at the pattern, three, two, one, seven, four, three, five, four, five. And then when you have the chords it sounds like this...so nice little dramatic run there. Again your have your E minor, the third chord we learned, to the first chord we learned to that B, to our E seven, and we'll go over our last two measures in just a minute.
