In today’s lesson, we’ll be looking at the classes of extended chords.<\/p>\n

It’s important for any serious musician to learn about extended chords because they are harmonically ahead of other chord classes like triads and seventh chords.<\/p>\n

Having covered extended chords in a previous lesson, let’s go ahead and explore the three classes of extended chords.<\/p>\n

A Quick Review On Extended Chords<\/h2>\n

Preliminaries<\/h3>\n

According to Jermaine Griggs, “a chord is basically a collection of three or more related notes (agreeable or not), which may be played or heard together.”<\/em><\/p>\n

It takes at least three notes to form a chord, and the notes of the chord must be related to a given scale (scale relationship) and interval (intervallic relationship.)<\/p>\n

In the C major triad:
\n
\n…the notes C, E, and G, are related to the C natural major scale (scale relationship):
\n
\n…and third intervals (intervallic relationship):<\/p>\n

This explains why C to E:
\n
\n…and E to G:
\n
\n…are third intervals.<\/p>\n

“What Is An Extended Chord?”<\/em><\/h3>\n

A chord can be classified as an extended chord if its width exceeds the compass of an octave.<\/p>\n

Using the note C (as a reference):
\n
\nWe’ll have C to C:
\n
\n…as an octave.<\/p>\n

All chords with this C note (as their root):
\n
\n…that exceed the compass of its octave (C to C):
\n
\n…are classified as extended chords because their width are literally extending beyond the compass of an octave.<\/p>\n

The Formation Of Extended Chords<\/h3>\n

Pursuant to traditional chord formation guidelines, anyone can form chords in third intervals (intervallic relationship) using a given scale.<\/p>\n

Using the C natural major scale:
\n
\n…a chord can be formed in third intervals – from C:
\n
\n…to a third above C (which is E):
\n
\n…to a third above C-E (which is G):
\n
\nAt this point, we’ve formed the C major triad:
\n
\nAdding another third to C-E-G:
\n
\n…(which is B):
\n
\n…produces the C major seventh chord:
\n
\nAdding another third to C-E-G-B:
\n
\n…(which is D):
\n
\n…produces an extended chord – the C major ninth chord:
\n
\nAdding another third to C-E-G-B-D:
\n
\n…(which is F):
\n
\n…produces an extended chord – the C major eleventh chord:
\n
\nAdding another third to C-E-G-B-D-F:
\n
\n…(which is A):
\n
\n…produces an extended chord – the C major thirteenth chord:
\n
\n“In A Nutshell…”<\/em><\/p>\n

Beyond the level of seventh chords are extended chords. This means that adding a note to a seventh chord, that is a third above it, produces an extended chord.<\/p>\n

There are three distinct classes of extended chords and that’s our focus in this lesson. Join me in the next segment so we can discuss elaborately on it.<\/p>\n

The Classes Of Extended Chords – Explained<\/em><\/h2>\n

All extended chords belong to one of these three classes:<\/p>\n

Ninth chords<\/p>\n

Eleventh chords<\/p>\n

Thirteenth chords<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Take a closer look at these chord classes.<\/p>\n

Ninth Chords<\/h3>\n

Ninth chords are extended chords that encompass a ninth interval from their root.<\/p>\n

In the key of C major:
\n
\n…a ninth chord should encompass C to D:
\n
\n…a ninth interval.<\/p>\n

Beyond the size of a ninth chord, it’s important to also take a look at its chord tones which are:<\/p>\n

The root<\/p>\n

The third<\/p>\n

The fifth<\/p>\n

The seventh<\/p>\n

The ninth<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A ninth chord consists of five chord tones and can also be considered as a seventh chord with a ninth tone.<\/p>\n

There are various ninth chord qualities which include (but isn’t limited to):<\/p>\n

The major ninth chord<\/p>\n

The minor ninth chord<\/p>\n

The dominant ninth chord<\/p>\n

The minor-major ninth chord<\/p>\n

The diminished major ninth<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

Final Words<\/h2>\n

There are basically three classes of extended chords:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Ninth chords<\/li>\n
  • Eleventh chords<\/li>\n
  • Thirteenth chords<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    …of various qualities – major, minor, dominant, etc., and we’ll explore them in subsequent lessons.<\/p>\n
