Arpeggio Lesson 13
Dmaj7 and A7 in 2nd Position
We learned a D major arpeggio in Lesson 6
D F# A were the 3 notes of a D chord
Now lets add the 7th degree of the D major scale:
D E F# G A B C#
Dmaj7:
D F# A C#
D
Dmaj7
Dmaj7:
D F# A C#
1st Inversion Dmaj7:
F# A C# D
This exercise has us move the 1st Inversion Dmaj7 arpeggio from 2nd position to 4th position and then 7th position. In a later lesson we will look at a Dmaj7 in 7th position.
A7
A7 in 2nd Position - The V chord in the key of D Major
A7:
A C# E G
Note this is the fifth chord built from a D major scale. Known as a dominant 7th chord.
