Join DateMar 2011Posts140As starting point, there was a booklet I believe by Louis Bellson about "cut chords". Although it was intended for Piano, it just shows the concept. Or they might have called them "split" chords, but anyway three-note chords generally.

For guitar, although aimed specifically for big band rhythm chords, Check out Bucky Pizzarelli's booklet called "Power Guitar". Cut chords, basically. Fairly alien from the mainstream point of view, if you've never seen them before. But, virtually essential for a lot of big band stuff, and useful sometimes elsewhere.

I regret I am not familiar with the booklet you've named.Reply With Quote Reply With Quote05-16-2011, 02:23 PM #3 JohnW400 JohnW400 is offlineJoin DateMar 2008LocationNorthern NJPosts2,869You can see some of what is in it here:

Jamey Aebersold Jazz: Three-Note Voicings and Beyond

The last page had something interesting about quartal chords and secundal harmony. The part about seconds and dropping a note down an octave is interesting. A lot you can do with that one (not to hijack the thread)

Take C,D,E and try to find how many different ways you can play those three note going from a cluster to playing them in 3 octaves. Next D E F, E F G and then F F# G.Reply With Quote Reply With Quote05-16-2011, 03:06 PM #4 FatJeff's Avatar FatJeff FatJeff is offlineJoin Date

Placerville, CAPosts2,063Thanks for the sample link. Gonna wait. I know my shiz pretty well, but the promise of Shearing-style block chords had me interested. As far as I can tell those are only truly possible on piano.JonnyPac

A lot of ideas for shell voicings and triads. He says in the book that Shearing chords are impossible on the guitar, so he provides three and four note voicings he calls "simulated Shearing-style block chords from drop 2 reductions."Reply With Quote Reply With Quote04-13-2012, 10:37 AM #7 Nuff SaidGuestMembers that have used the book, what are your views about:"Three-Note Voicingsand Beyond" by randy vincent
