I've shown the left hand in a darker shade of turquoise, while the keys played by the right hand are highlighted in light blue. I have also written the intervals for the respective notes in each picture so that you can transfer the voicings to all other keys with a little theoretical knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">C <strong>Min9 (Root Position<\/strong>)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min9-Root-Position.PNG-e1725987204107-1024x295.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min9-Root-Position.PNG-e1725987204107-1024x295.png 1024w, https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min9-Root-Position.PNG-e1725987204107-980x296.png 980w, https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min9-Root-Position.PNG-e1725987204107-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This voicing is full and expansive. In practice, however, it is the least common. I mention it anyway because it provides the basis for understanding music theory. The left hand plays the root note, the fifth and the ninth, which is also often referred to as the second or \u201c2\u201d. The right hand plays a maj7 four-note over the minor third of the minor 9 chord. Important here is the friction of the minor second between the ninth and minor third, which creates the sound character of neo soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">C <strong>Min9 (2.

Die Bezeichung &#8222;zweite Umkehrung&#8220; bezieht sich lediglich auf den Maj7-Vierklang der rechten Hand und ist musiktheoretisch nicht korrekt (Daf\u00fcr m\u00fcsste die Quinte der Grundton sein, also die Eins weggelassen werden aber das juckt hier eh keinen. Es geht nur darum wie ich das Voicing bezeichne). Jedenfalls werden die Septime und die None, im Vergleich zu Grundstellung eine Oktave tiefer gespielt und sorgen f\u00fcr einen dichteren Akkord, der nur noch \u00fcber zwei anstatt drei Oktaven geht.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">C <strong>Min9 (Cluster)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"297\" src=\"https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min9-Cluster.PNG-e1725987185124-1024x297.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-866\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min9-Cluster.PNG-e1725987185124-1024x297.png 1024w, https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min9-Cluster.PNG-e1725987185124-980x298.png 980w, https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min9-Cluster.PNG-e1725987185124-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Wer es noch dichter mag, f\u00fcr den sind die Cluster-Voicings ein super Tool. Ich pers\u00f6nlich nutze sie gerne in den oberen Oktaven, um die Grundakkorde ein wenig shiny zu machen. Ein Vorteil dieser Voicings ist, dass sie die Septime als Melodieton haben, welche ihnen einen jazzigen Vibe verleiht. Technisch gesehen k\u00f6nnte ich diese Voicings auch &#8222;Min9 (3.UK)&#8220; nennen, was ich aber nur mache, wenn ich mit der rechten Hand den Grundton und die Quinte spiele. So bleibt es f\u00fcr mich ein Cluster-Voicing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">C <strong>Min11 (Rootless)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min11-Rootless-e1725987156973-1024x295.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-867\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min11-Rootless-e1725987156973-1024x295.png 1024w, https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min11-Rootless-e1725987156973-980x296.png 980w, https:\/\/elliasmeinel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Neo-Soul-Piano-Voicing-Min11-Rootless-e1725987156973-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>By far the boldest voicings are the Min11 without a root note. At first glance and without any knowledge of music theory, it can be quite difficult to understand which chord this pile of notes is supposed to form (Bbmaj6<sup>add11<\/sup> eventuell). Mit etwas \u00dcberlegung f\u00e4llt aber auf, dass die linke Hand den Maj7-Vierklang aus dem Min9-Voicing (2.UK) \u00fcbernommen hat und die rechte Hand die 11 oktaviert, w\u00e4hrend die Septime und None nat\u00fcrlich auch nicht vernachl\u00e4ssigt werden. Wichtig hierbei ist, dass sich beim Spielen meine beiden Daumen \u00fcberkreuzen, was f\u00fcr die Thickness des Akkords sorgt.
