Music Theory: Intro to Chords in Inversion

In this music theory lesson we discuss the idea of chords in inversion, which involves voicing triads where the bass note is a chord member OTHER than the root. We’ll introduce how to correctly part-write 1st inversion triads (the 3rd of the triad in the bass) and how to part-write 2nd inversion triads (the 5th of the triad in the bass). Finally, we’ll examine music that uses chords in inversion, conducting a harmonic analysis (labeling its harmonies using Roman numerals). Although the video refers to specific examples found in a standard harmony text, what is presented here may be applied universally.
