Hi Everyone,

This lesson covers 11th chords. We start with how to make them using the every-other-note concept you're already familiar with, and then go into the reality of using these chords in the wild.

Check out the PDF and let me know how you feel about these chords in the comments. Do you like the rich, sometimes intense sound? Not everyone does. If you find some voicings of 11th chords that you like, post them on the community forum.

I didn't go into the most detail possible in this video. That felt too intense, but if you have more questions let me know in an Office Hours or something.

Awesome video and super thorough. Question though - at the end when you mention that putting the 11th lower in the register vs. higher, would that still make it a 11th? Isn't the point that it's in the next octave which is what differentiates an 11th from a 4th?

Hey Max. Thats how we use the language to make sense of it, but it doesn't literally have to be an 11th away from the root. It's more about the relationship between R35+7+11 But there are many schools of thought on this stuff and I haven't ventured very far into jazz theory, where there are some more rigid distinctions between voicings.

I really think jazz people should do 15th chords. Root on low root on high. Why not? Just to make our lives more easier! Should I call the jazz master to talk closer about it? Thanks for this lesson Mr. I deeply appreciate that you are back with "Mondays" lessons. And now with new interactive visuals and tricks. For visual people like me. This help a ton. NICE "Speile"
