Day 4: All the chords are in open position. Although they're in open position, you will see that some of the chords still have a lot of crunchiness. Try memorizing these voicings and maybe try them in a few different keys.

Chinese translation is for Chinese students 這個part2是複雜版的Part1 目的一樣只是要導入到第一個和弦。 第一個練習（第一小節到第八小節），其實沒有太大的差別，就是加了個A dim7 第二個練習（第九小節到第十六小節），你可以看到，全部是半音階下行。 只要記得開始的音要落在從降五音開始，一路下行。

Ideas For Intros Pt. 1 by Behn Gillece
behng
Content type: Audio Player
Chinese translation is for Chinese students 前奏（intro） 有很多不同的方式可以為一首曲子加一些前奏， 今天要講的叫做b5 intro。 因為開始的那個音是從曲子調性的主音算起來的降第五音。 一路下行，主要的目的是帶領到第一個和弦（PDF中是Fmajor） 通常我們如果用這個intro，會讓他是8小節intro，也就是像PDF中寫的。
當然在這些和聲配置（Voicing）中間，你可以插入其他不同的Voicing， 增添色彩。
