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.

In this lesson, you’ll start exploring triads with wider voicings than the close-voiced triads Mark has concentrated on up to this point. In particular, you’ll explore a voicing that moves the middle voice of a close-voiced triad down an octave. This has a piano-like quality and sounds great on the guitar. Mark starts by showing you the wide voicings in the key of D: root position, first inversion, and second inversion, then moves on to all three wide voicings in the keys of G and C.
