What is Understanding Block Chords in Music about?
A block chord is a chord played simultaneously rather than arpeggiated. It involves playing the notes of a chord together in parallel motion to harmonize a melody. Block chords were popularized by jazz pianists like George Shearing, Red Garland, and Bill Evans. There are different types of block chord voicings including generic, double melody, and drop 2 voicings. Block chords provide chordal harmony and strengthen the melody.
