Songwriting Hack - The Magic of Diminished Passing Chords

Hello friends,

Welcome back to Swiftlessons for another living room teaching session. To cap off your weekend practice, let's learn to spice up your original compositions and arrangements with flavorful diminished chords. This tutorial is exclusively for my generous patrons, but feel free to share the link with friends. Let's get started!

P.S. I'm considering making these patron only "living room sessions" a regular thing. Would you like to see stripped down mini lessons posted to the feed each week? Let me know in the comments. Thanks for your guidance. -Rob

It's just beautiful! I so enjoy playing these chords.

Sorry, I'm a little late on this post, but man it's great. I find it a bit jazzy but how interesting it is to the ear.

Any rules or guides to when to use half vs, full dim chords?

How cool. It sounds a little like Ain't misbehavin... great lesson! Thank you for what you do!

Will need time and practice to get this many chord changes into memory. Maybe twice a month. Sounds great though!

Yes, that would be great. Short lessons are great - easier to learn in shorter digestible chunks.

Yes. These are great. Fun!
