A deep composition study using Pat Metheny–inspired harmony to explore shifting key centers, emergent properties, and upper-structure triad voicings.
This lesson breaks down Composition Study No.1 to show how to write with a tonal center while embracing modal ambiguity, chromatic approaches, and emergent harmonic functions. Learn practical techniques—constant left-hand structures, upper-structure triads, delayed resolutions, and voice-leading choices—that create the Metheny-like sound. Includes step-by-step examples of reharmonization, bass-line strategies, and how to use tensions and non-diatonic notes tastefully. Ideal for composers and pianists wanting to apply advanced harmonic ideas in original writing.
