Hi all, I have troubles finding the right chords to use for a given tune. So I start this thread for the selfish reason to see what other folks might know or do re chord selection. I think most folks do know about the 12/bar blues, the three chord trick, etc.
I gather, but am not sure, that if a tune is modal, it may be the chord rules will or could be changed for different effect?? Maybe in the old days there were some standard rules for this? Some of you may understand or have something to share about what you do, how you do it or the theory behind your chord/double stop selections, and usage. Deep, you seem to understand a lot of scales, maybe you have something to add? I gather dulcimer players come up against the modal issues, too. My current question is, to find chords that work for a tune in Dorian Mode, would it be based mainly around a two note drone rather than a three note chord, perhaps say, I & III, for two of the chords and perhaps I & V for the third chord or some other scheme? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Taterbugmando" group.
