Extended chords (7ths, 9ths, add9) in real songs
Chords with notes beyond the basic triad: sevenths (Cmaj7, Am7, G7), ninths (Cmaj9, Dm9) and added tones (Cadd9). They give harmony the softer, richer colour of soul, jazz and modern pop.
8 songs in the library use this, including music by Adele, Céline Dion, John Legend and Judy Garland. Every song has left- and right-hand piano voicings to step through on an 88-key keyboard, plus a breakdown of the harmony and structure.
