Upper Structure Triads - Easy Method For Learning Extended Chords

The video explains Upper Structure Triads - Easy Method For Learning Extended Chords, an advanced music theory concept for creating extended chords by combining two triads. The instructor emphasizes the importance of perseverance, even for beginners.
The concept is demonstrated using the key of C, where combining a C major chord with a triad built a major third or fifth above creates major 7th or major 9th chords.
A diminished triad can be used for constructing major 11th chords while combining minor triads with the root chord produces major 9 sharp 11 chords.
The instructor shows how these triads can be applied in gospel songs to create richer harmonies, such as in “You Thought I Was Worth Saving.”
The video dives into more complex chords, like dominant 9 sharp 11 and altered chords, showcasing techniques from jazz and gospel music, including quarrel harmony for unique voicings.
