Inspiration comes from many different places. We can get inspired by other music or by a situation we are going through. Anything at any time can give you a spark of inspiration. An idea!

Chords are no exceptions. Different chords inspire you differently. Just think about the same two chords, such as C and F, played in different ways.

The basic chords sound simple and very clear. Also, very happy and lively. I mean, happiness should be something simple and uncomplicated. But if we transform the chords into Maj9, the music becomes more relaxed and positive.

I genuinely believe that the Maj9 and Min9 chords are among the most amazing and fantastic chords available. They have a unique character and versatility. We can use them in Jazz, Soul, R&B, Pop, and Latin music.

I think they are indeed genuinely inspiring.

In this video, we are going to take a closer look at these chords, and I am going to show you how to put them into practice by teaching you this lovely chord progression entirely played with Maj9 and Min9 chords.

Enjoy this lesson.
