A hands-on breakdown of a video game theme that demonstrates ionian voicings, inner clusters, ninths, and chromatic median modulations.
This lesson dissects a game-music theme and shows how to use characteristic Ionian tones, inner-note clusters, added ninths, and chromatic median modulations to create rich, cinematic harmony. You’ll hear how sus4/major7 voicings and close inner clusters shape the left‑hand accompaniment and how adding a natural note creates modal ambiguity. Clear examples illustrate moving by major/minor thirds and using the ninth as a color tone, with practical tips you can apply to your own themes. Includes a supplemental PDF for members with notation and voicing details.
