In this lesson, in addition to learning the triad shapes for the key of A and E, Mark talks about learning to hear the separate voices within the chord, instead of just thinking of them as block shapes.

Bottom Three Strings

Minor Triads on the Bottom Three Strings, Part 1: E, A and D Minor

Minor Triads on the Bottom Three Strings, Part 2: B and G Minor

B minor and G minor are the other two keys Mark is using to illustrate the close-voiced minor triads, so he finishes up the minor triad series by showing you the root position, first inversion, and second inversion triads of B and G minor, along with some drills that combine string sets and positions. He also talks about considering voice leading when you’re moving from chord to chord, and gives you ideas about using these low voicings in improvisations.
