Simple right?<\/p>\n<p>Now, here&#8217;s the big deal. <\/p>\n<p>Normally when I refer to second inversion chords, I&#8217;m usually just referring to the right hand alone&#8230; like when I&#8217;m talking about harmonizing a melody or something. So when I say, <em>&#8220;play C major in second inversion on the right hand,&#8221;<\/em> the truth is that the <em>overall chord<\/em> is still C major in root position if I&#8217;m playing C major in the bass. <\/p>\n<p>I usually don&#8217;t get that technical though because it&#8217;s a given that C is the bass most of the time so when I usually mention inversions, I&#8217;m only talking about the right hand.<\/p>\n<p>But with <a href=\"https:\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox\/141e8f273f72a2%3A14dcc288eb46dc\/5650082896543744\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">6-4 chords<\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox-714.js\"><\/script>, it&#8217;s not just playing a second inversion chord with the right hand in the way I just described. It&#8217;s actually playing the 5th as the lowest note of the <em>overall chord<\/em>. So if C major is your chord, G will be your bass and nothing will be lower than it.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, we could end this conversation about 6-4 chords right now. You could easily just say Cmaj\/G and it&#8217;d be the same thing. That&#8217;s essentially a &#8220;Cmaj 6-4.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>(But if you&#8217;re like me, you&#8217;d like to know exactly what you&#8217;re playing and what other people call it, right?)<\/p>\n<p>Well, today, I want to go a step further.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s actually study real-life applications of the 6-4 chord.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>1) The Neighboring 6-4 (a.k.a. &#8211; Pedal 6-4)<br \/>\n2) The Passing 6-4<br \/>\n3) The Cadential 6-4<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"bigtext\">Neighboring 6-4<\/p>\n<p>This basically occurs when the bass stays the same but the upper voices of the chord move to a 6-4 chord and back down to the original chord. Usually  in a stepwise motion (that is, the notes that move only go <em>&#8220;next door&#8221;<\/em> and come right back).<\/p>\n<p>Like in this C major <a href=\"https:\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox\/141e8f273f72a2%3A14dcc288eb46dc\/5650082896543744\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chord progression<\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox-714.js\"><\/script>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>C major<\/strong><br \/>\nE + G + C on right \/ C on left<\/p>\n<p><strong>F major \/ C  (or Fmaj 6-4)<\/strong><br \/>\nF + A + C on right \/ C on left<\/p>\n<p><strong>C major<\/strong><br \/>\nE + G + C on right \/ C on left\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Notice that the first and last chords are the same. The chord in the middle serves as a neighboring &#8220;6-4&#8221; chord. The bass never changes (always remains on &#8220;C&#8221;).<\/p>\n<p>You hear this a lot in the beginning of ballads. It sounds pretty.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bigtext\">Passing 6-4<\/p>\n<p>This usually occurs when the bass is walking up.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n<strong>C major<\/strong><br \/>\nE + G + C on right \/ <strong>C<\/strong> on left<\/p>\n<p><strong>G major \/ D (or Gmaj 6-4)<\/strong><br \/>\nD + G + B \/ <strong>D<\/strong> on left<\/p>\n<p><strong>C major<\/strong><br \/>\nE + G + C on right \/ <strong>E<\/strong> on left<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Rather than coming back to the same exact chord (like in the &#8220;neighboring&#8221; example), this 6-4 chord led to a different inversion of the C major chord (one that puts E on the bottom&#8230; we&#8217;ll talk about that chord later).<\/p>\n<p class=\"bigtext\">Cadential 6-4<\/p>\n<p>This is probably the most common use of the 6-4 chord. You&#8217;ll definitely hear this at the end of many songs. In fact, when you&#8217;ve heard me talk about &#8220;2-5-1&#8221; chord progressions, often times, it&#8217;s not just 3 chords (that is, the &#8220;2-chord&#8221; going to the &#8220;5&#8221; and then immediately coming home to the &#8220;1-chord&#8221;). <\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, it&#8217;s really 2-5-5-1 (but since the progression stays on the same &#8220;5th&#8221; degree for two chords, most people will just call it a &#8220;2-5-1&#8221; as it serves the same exact purpose). In other words, the chord progression may simply hang out at the &#8220;5&#8221; for a couple chords and then finally return home.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox\/141e8f273f72a2%3A14dcc288eb46dc\/5650082896543744\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2-chord<\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox-714.js\"><\/script> has done its job to get us to the 5 but at times, we&#8217;re not quite ready to use the regular 5-chord like we want&#8230; so we put a 6-4 chord in there first, which resolves us to the more common 5-chord, which then takes us home to our 1-chord! Thus, what I called &#8220;2-5-5-1&#8221; above! <\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s get a little more specific&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hearandplay.com\/main\/who-else-wants-to-learn-what-6-4-chords-are\">Yesterday<\/a>, we talked about the instability and slight dissonance of chords in their second inversion (&#8220;6-4s&#8221;). They usually require resolution as they hang loose over the bass. They certainly don&#8217;t give you a feeling of &#8220;home bass.&#8221; Even a non-musician senses that the &#8220;6-4&#8221; chord needs to go somewhere.<\/p>\n<p>And usually that &#8220;somewhere&#8221; is simply moving the upper notes down in stepwise motion to a more stable major chord in root position (the bass stays the same).<\/p>\n<p>Consider this progression&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>C major \/ G (or Cmaj 6-4)<\/strong><br \/>\nG + <strong>C<\/strong> + <strong>E<\/strong> on right \/ G on left<\/p>\n<p><strong>G major<\/strong><br \/>\nG + <strong>B<\/strong> + <strong>D<\/strong> on right \/ G on left<\/p>\n<p><strong>C major<\/strong><br \/>\nE + G + C on right \/ C on left<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>You better watch out! With this information, you&#8217;ll soon be composing your own music! After all, this is how it&#8217;s done!<\/p>\n<p>The last two days may be a lot to swallow if you&#8217;re not used to thinking of second inversion chords this way.
