Affordant Chord Transitions in Selected Guitar-Driven Popular Music
Affordant Chord Transitions in Selected Guitar-Driven Popular Music Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Gary Yim, B.Mus. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2011 Thesis Committee: David Huron, Advisor Marc Ainger Graeme Boone Copyright by Gary Yim 2011 Abstract It is proposed that two different harmonic systems govern the sequences of chords in popular music: affordant harmony and functional harmony. Affordant chord transitions favor chords and chord transitions that minimize technical difficulty when performed on the guitar, while functional chord transitions favor chords and chord transitions based on a chord's harmonic function within a key. A corpus analysis is used to compare the two harmonic systems in influencing chord transitions, by encoding each song in two different ways. Songs in the corpus are encoded with their absolute chord names (such as “Cm”) to best represent affordant factors in the chord transitions. These same songs are also encoded with their Roman numerals to represent functional factors in the chord transitions. The total entropy within the corpus for both encodings are calculated, and it is argued that the encoding with the lower entropy value corresponds with a harmonic system that more greatly influences the chord transitions. It is predicted that affordant chord transitions play a greater role than functional harmony, and therefore a lower entropy value for the letter-name encoding is expected. But, contrary to expectations, a lower entropy value for the Roman numeral encoding was found. Thus, the results are not consistent with the hypothesis that affordant chord transitions play a greater role than functional chord transitions.

Guitar Lessons Outline
Lesson 6: Barre Chords E formation: Major, Minor, Sevenths Although most folk songs can be played without the use of barre chords, they are essential to playing most rock songs! Barre Chords are chords that have your index finger holding down more than one string and not playing with any open strings. Below is a picture of an F major chord, using the barring method: Note that the 2nd, 3rd and 4th fingers are playing the formation of an E major chord while the 1st finger is barring all of the strings of the first fret. You may find this hard to do at first because the 1st finger must be held flat and you are putting your 4th finger to work for the first time, but barre chords have a great advantage over open chords: they can be moved up and down the neck to make any chord you want. For example: When moved up two frets becomes All major, minor and seventh chords can be made using E formation barre chords. Let’s look at A major, Am, Am7 and Amaj7 using E formation barre chords. The 1st finger is barred across the 5th fret, making the 6th string an A note. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th fingers make an E formation to create the rest of the chord: 31 Then the minor chord follows the same pattern as the open Em chord by flattening the 3rd note: C# By flattened the 7th note of the A major scale, the 2nd A note drops a whole step (G) to become an Am7 barre chord: By dropping the 2nd A note down a half step, we get an Amaj7 barre chord: These variations of the E formation barre chord may be played anywhere on the neck.

Chord and It Gives It It's Name
Interval Functions • In any chord, each interval has a ‘job’ or ‘function’ • The root is the most fundamental part of the chord and it gives it it’s name and ‘tone’ or pitch • The third is what makes the chord sound happy or sad. • The ﬁfth ‘bulks’ up the chord • The seventh adds the ‘spice’ on top of the chord Intervals (Advanced) • Perfect intervals are the 4, 5 and 8 (octave). These are intervals whose frequencies divide into neat fractions. • Perfect Intervals are considered ‘consonant’ as opposed to ‘dissonant’ ROUGHWORK Note Frequency Note Frequency A1 28 A4 220 C B1 31 B4 247 G C1 33 C4 262 D1 37 D4 294 E1 41 E4 330 F1 44 F4 349 33 G1 49 G4 392 A2 55 A5 440 49 B2 62 B5 494 C2 65 C5 523 D2 73 D5 587 E2 82 E5 659 F2 87 F5 698 2 G2 98 G5 784 A3 110 A6 880 3 B3 123 B6 988 C3 131 C6 1047 D3 147 D6 1175 E3 165 E6 1319 F3 175 F6 1397 G3 196 G6 1568 • Non-perfect intervals are 2, 3, 6 and 7.

Whiskey Soaked and Hell Bound. Lynyrd Skynyrd and Southern Culture
WHISKEY SOAKED AND HELL BOUND: LYNYRD SKYNYRD AND SOUTHERN CULTURE CECIL K. HUTSON lowa State University (Resumen) Aunque el grupo sureño Lynyrd Skynyrd alcanzó audiencia nacional por su especial modo de hacer rock del sur, en toda su carrera se aprecia una fuerte defensa de los valores tradionales de la cultura sureña. La bandera confederada en todas sus portadas, el orgullo regional, el agrarianismo rural, y la apología al macho sureño, todo ello proyectado en violencia y provocación, convirtieron al grupo en paradigma del conservadurismo del Viejo Sur. Unlike other hard rock groups, the legendary Southern rock and roll band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, did not emerge from the urban ghettos of such cities as London or New York, instead it came out of the rural South. This "rough and tough and plenty mean" Southern band utilized regional cultural traits to become one of the best hard rock bands that the South ever produced. In 1974 Melody Maker, a major rock and roll trades magazine, claimed that Lynyrd Skynyrd's "brand" of Southern rock music had swept across the Southern states. Band members and Southemers, Ronnie Van Zant, Alien Collins, Gary Rossington, Billy Powell, León Wilkeson, Artimus Pyle and Steve Gaines understood the mind-set of the young rural Southemers who listened to their music; thus they were able to speak for a generation of young Southern men. Lynyrd Skynyrd merits study as a major element of Southern popular culture because it had a significant influence on rock 'n' roll. In fact, the band has been labeled as "one of the most
