My favorite classes ever! Have you t...Ahh, theory. My favorite classes ever! <BR/><BR/>Have you tried just playing the chords to yourself so that you can get used to their sounds? Before playing any progressions just play a chord and then play it as a dominant seventh. The V7 has extra dissonance due to the tritone formed between its third and seventh. The sound is actually very distinctive once you study it a bit. <BR/><BR/>What helped me with harmonic progressions was actually pop music. I used to listen to regular radio music and follow the chords on my piano at home. You eventually start to see patterns. Most songs use similar chord progressions. I play electric bass guitar at my church group and at first I couldn't follow anything by ear and had to write everything down. Now I feel the chord progressions and can follow any song, even one I've never heard before. Eventually you will "feel" the chord changes. <BR/><BR/>Start with small progressions for practice: I-V-I, I-V7-I, I-IV-V-I, I-V-VI, etc. If you know another musician maybe get them to play the progressions for you on the piano while you follow on bass or write them down. <BR/><BR/>You can do it!!<BR/><BR/> I also played electric bass guitar at churchHildahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06983832246471151350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347632.post-1153093752998440532006-07-17T07:49:00.000+08:002006-07-17T07:49:00.000+08:00Good Luck, Keep on working hard, it's worth it, as...Good Luck, Keep on working hard, it's worth it, as for the cadences, it'll come to you easily soon enough, I'm working on the Marcello Sonata in A minor and the Capuzzi Concerto, I've never heard of the one you are doing.
