| | Berklee Press - Catalog - Voice Leading for Guitar: Moving through the Changes |
 | | Significant demands can be placed on a guitarist, particularly in a pianoless band, and a key component that the guitarist must possess is a through knowledge of how to voice lead with 3/4/5 part chord voicings, in support of the melody and soloists. | | | A book on voice leading is a needed step in the evolution of jazz guitar education, and John is the best man to write it. | | | Samples from this title are available on Berkleeshares.com, where you can download free music lessons and share them with your friends. |

| | Music Theory: Melody: Voice Leading |
| | When analyzing a melody with respect to voice leading, however, we look mostly at the intervals between the melody notes themselves. | | | Whereas one can analyze a chord progression in advance, a jazz musician must be able to improvise melodies on the spot. | | | Many improvisors, even many of those who take a very theoretical approach to harmonic analysis and the selection of scales to use in improvising, rely on their ears alone to guide them in voice leading. |

| | Tone and Voice: A Derivation of the Rules of Voice-leading from Perceptual Principles |
| | Huron (1989b) found that as the number of concurrent voices in a polyphonic texture increases, expert listeners are both slower to recognize the addition of new voices, and more prone to underestimate the number of voices present. | | | Similarly, a human voice will nearly always be more salient than a musical instrument. | | | The solid line in Figure 5 shows the aggregate consonance values for musical intervals up to the size of an octave from perceptual experiments by Kaestner (1909). |

| | Voice Leading |
| | Ragtime and stride piano left-hand voicings often are defined, as notated above, with octaves on the root on beat one, on the fifth on beat 3, with the same voicing of the chord on beats 2 and 4. | | | Although the linear aspects of the progression become less apparent, the concept of watching and listening for the direction of individual voices in a chord progression is important in all musicmaking! | | | Left-hand piano voicings, for instance, can provide a reliable harmonic blueprint for the entire jazz tradition. |

| | For example, one of the most common tendency tones in tonal music is #4, which acts as a leading tone to the dominant. | | | As well as filling in the interval of a third with passing notes, we can also insert a chromatic passing tone between two notes a whole step apart. | | | to V progression, the b2 in the soprano moving to the leading tone creates the unusual interval of a diminished third. |

| | About THE BOOK |
| | What many of us have suspected all along has been proven to be true— Johann Sebastian Bach has been re-incarnated, wears a cap and suspenders, plays the guitar, and has just released a book under the name Mick Goodrick. | | | And the ultimate result of our basking in Mick's wonderful method of exploration might be that we build our own Almanacs from our own ideas. | | | With unbelievable voicings never heard before, new sounding arpeggios, and superb voice leading, Mick has brought us flying into the 21st Century! |

| | Voice Leading |
| | Harmonic (chord) progressions are usually written in vocal style, that is, they are written as if the four voices of the mixed choir were to sing the progression. | | | In major scale harmony, the subdominant of the scale should not be doubled, because this leads to parallel octaves: the resolution is to the third of scale. | | | The following intervals are usually avoided: m7, M7 and A4 (d5), although a leap of an A4 (d5) can be used in the soprano when approaching the leading tone. |

| | However, based on the way most of us learn chords, this is not the most obvious thing to do on the guitar. | | | When notes in one chord move to notes in the next chord in a progression in a musical and logical way, it is known as voice leading. | | | To voice lead effectively, you need to be able to play chords in the same area of the neck, without having to jump from the third fret to the tenth and back, for instance. |

| | VOICE-LEADING SPACE |
| | The tonnetz is a traditional example of what I have previously called a compositional space ; such spaces are out-of-time networks of pitch-classes that can underlie compositional or improvisational action. | | | This paper studies networks of pitch-classes that model voice leading-the progression of pitches to form horizontal "voices" or "lines." While tonal voice leading depends on distinctions between step and leap, consonance and dissonance, chord-tone and embellishment, voice leading in post-tonal music simply and non-normatively describes the motions of pitches, one to another. | | | The result is a collection of voice - leading spaces, a new category of compositional space. |

| | Indeed, preliminary work is already beginning to show such results, and to indicate that some of these voice-leading patterns typically form identifiable chains that span larger structural units. | | | A third goal of the study, really an outgrowth of the previous two, is to assess the manner in which these voice-leading patterns and chains of patterns coalesce into deeper structural patterns. | | | Thus it is anticipated that the patterns identified and collated at the foreground and higher middleground levels may lead to the recognition of a vocabulary of chains of interconnected voice-leading patterns. |
