Advanced Bass: Chord Superimposition
In this lesson we’ll cover an effective concept of superimposing melodic lines over multiple chord types. We’ll then develop this idea through the introduction of a technique called “framing,” which will enable you to hear the chord you are playing over with more harmonic clarity.
This concept will enable you to expand your ideas and end up with more mileage out of your existing vocabulary.
This lesson is not for the faint hearted and requires a basic knowledge of different chord types, chord tones and related chord tensions.
