Hi Everyone,
We've already discussed diatonic 9th chords - the 9th chords you can make with an unaltered Major or Minor scale - but we haven't talked about these chords in the context of Harmonic or Melodic Minor. Does this change things? Yes! In the most fun way.
In this lesson I talk about these cool, wonky chords and try to couch them in the logic of Melodic Minor. I don't necessarily know where these chords come from, but connecting them to the Melodic Minor concept at least helps you see how they fit in the fabric of music theory. Check out the PDF for more clarity.
