VARIETY IN CHORD PROGRESSIONS

In this lesson you will learn how to create variety with your chord progressions! This lesson is going to be a lot of fun and I hope you’re ready for it!

Play every chord four times. Use red, blue, red, blue as your rhythm syllables.

Example 1: We will use the C major chord for this example

How to use this on your own:

Now you’re probably wondering what you can do with this on your own. Well there’s a LOT of things you can do! What I recommend is mixing this up with all the chords you have learned so far! Use these rhythms and then make up your own! Here are a few rhythm examples to get you started

red pur-ple pur-ple red

red blue pur-ple pur-ple

pur-ple purple red pur-ple

red pur-ple pur-ple red

1 2 3 2 3 1

red pur-ple pur-ple red

3 2 1 2 1 3

red pur-ple pur-ple red

1 3 2 1 3 2

So have fun with variations in chord progressions! You can definitely get a LOT of mileage with this idea and make cool progressions and so forth! I recommend starting simple so you don't overwhelm yourself and take it one step at a time!
