Now that we’ve learned just a little bit about intervals, let’s apply this. Let’s go to the complete score and let’s looks at Barre 7 of Guitar 3, and once again, if you have not downloaded the complete version, this is a great time to do it.
Okay, let’s look at our first interval, it’s a major third. We’ve got the notes D and we got the notes F sharp and that creates a major third. Now, our second interval is a minor third, we’ve got the notes C sharp and we’ve got the note E, that’s creates a minor third. So we now have a little transition of a major third to a minor third.
Let’s got to our third interval, just a minor third, we’ve got the notes D, and the notes D, played together, it sounds like this [Demonstration].
Now, the last interval of barre seven is a major third and we go to our note A and C sharp, play them together [Demonstration]. So barre seven would sound like this [Demonstration].
Great, now let’s go to Barre 8. Here we’ve got the notes G, and the notes B, that creates a major third. Our second interval of Barre 8 is the note F sharp and A, that is a minor third. Then we go right back up to the major third we just played—G and B, so it does create our major third once again. Now we’re going to shift to a major sixth, now this is a bit of a stretch but I know you guys can do it. Now, your first finger goes on the E of the second string, fifth fret, your fourth finger will go on the first string on the C sharp, you play those together and that creates a major sixth.
Let’s now play Barre 7 and 8 together [Demonstration].
Okay great, now let’s move to Barre 9. Here we’re going to play a minor sixth, we’re playing an F sharp against the D and that creates a minor sixth. Now, the second interval is a major sixth. It’s good to use your finger two and three and we’re just going to play the E against the C sharp, so a minor sixth to a major sixth, you hear that in a lot of blues songs and rock songs as well, so these are good little intervals to know.
So we just slide down a whole step and we’re going to play a D to a B for a third interval which is a major sixth, and then our fourth interval is C sharp to an A which creates another minor sixth. So that actual barre sounds like this [Demonstration].
Okay, Barre 10. Now we’re going to play a minor sixth, we’re going to play a B against the G. Now our second interval is another major sixth, we’re going to play a A against an F sharp. And our third interval is a minor sixth, we go right back up to the one we just played before, a B against the G. And the last interval is a minor third and I did this one where you play the C sharp against an open E.
Now, let’s play Barre 7 thru 10 together and let’s make it sound a little bit more musical, okay here we go major third, minor third, minor third, major third, major third, minor third, major third, major sixth, minor sixth, major sixth, major sixth, minor sixth, minor sixth, major sixth, minor sixth, minor third [Demonstration].
Alright, we’ll that’s the end of today’s lesson guys, thanks for hanging in there. Keep those emails coming, keep those comments coming and I hope you’re getting a lot of value out of these lessons and we’ll see you next time.
