I've got a question for you....on a 13 chord, often times the 5th and 9th are omitted....should I be looking at the 5th and 9th in my analysis or not..?


 

 

in a dom 13 chord the 5th and 9th are not ommited...the 11th is however...

 

no hints yet...keep going

Can you explain how the following chord progressions can be substitutes for each other?


1st....Eb7#9, Ab7(#11), Eb7#9, Bb7#9, Eb7#9


and the substitute chords....Cmin, Fmin, Cmin, Gmin, Cmin

 

Well, they are relative majors and minors, but the original I and V chords themselves are funny because the #9 in the b7#9 chords gives them a minor personality, and they translate into different fifth degree variants in a relative minor substitution --- Still, my relative minor substitutions for these chords would be:

 

Eb7#9 = Cmb9 (although this could be a dim chord as well, because there is a Gb as the #9 in the original relative major chord - this can be used as the b5 in a dim substitution variant of the relative minor)

Ab7#11 = Fm6

Bb7#9 = Gmb9 (same as the other chord in which I think a dim variant can be subbed as well)

 

 

Even If Im wrong, I still wouldve got paid :D
