Example Nineteen |
Who says you have to confine a
voicing to either the 6th chord or the diminished 7th chord of the 6 diminished
scale? You can borrow notes from one to use with the other if it creates a sound
that intrigues you. Here, we've replaced the 6th of the tonic minor 6th chord
with the major 7th. You're likely to hear sounds you haven't heard before as you
take this voicing up the scale. Try the voicings on the lower staff as well.

Example Twenty |
This voicing resolves the "borrowed"
note to a chord tone, for example, the major 7th (B) to the major 6th (A) over
the first minor 6th chord. |

Example Twenty-One |
Time to start putting things together.
The first chord has two borrowed notes (the B's), which resolve in contrary motion
to chord tones. That upward resolution in the left hand can be a useful device
for those who can't reach the interval of a tenth. The progression repeats moving
down stepwise. |
