Harmonic Minor Scale And Cadences (Patreon)

Below I've included the A harmonic minor scale. Now, many of you already know this scale but it's not enough to form a complete piece of music. Learning the harmony within a scale is what completes the compositional picture. 

The primary chords in A harmonic minor are Am-Dm-E. Using piano style voicings, I've included these primary chords in 3 inversions across the neck. You'll notice playing these cadences instantly sounds like a piece of music. Where, playing the scale just sounds like an exercise. Combine the two and you've got something going
