Akkorde und Griffe: Dein Guide zur Musiktheorie

Wenn du Gitarre lernen möchtest, ist es wichtig, die Musiktheorie zu verstehen. Denn nur so kannst du die Akkorde und Griffe richtig anwenden und deine Gitarre spielen. In diesem Ratgeber findest du alles Wichtige über die Musiktheorie, von den grundlegenden Akkorden bis hin zu den modernen Griffen. Gitarre online lernen ganz einfach und entspannt! Akkorde findest du überall in der Musik – von Pop bis Heavy Metal, vom Jazz bis zur klassischen Musik. Viele Songs basieren nur auf einem einzigen Akkord, andere hingegen wechseln ständig die Akkorde. In diesem Artikel lernst du die Grundlagen der Akkorde und ihrer Formation kennen. Außerdem zeigen wir dir, wie du die Akkorde auf der Gitarre spielen kannst. Zunächst einmal solltest du wissen, dass es verschiedene Arten von Akkorden gibt. Die drei Hauptarten sind Major-Akkorde, Minor-Akkorde und Seventh-Akkorde. Jede dieser Akkordarten hat ihren eigenen Sound und ihre eigene Struktur. Zudem gibt es noch viele weitere Arten von Akkorden, aber für den Anfang reicht es, wenn du dich mit diesen drei Typen vertraut machst.

Major-Akkorde sind die einfachste Art von Akkord und bestehen immer aus den Tönen 1 – 3 – 5 einer Tonleiter in Dur (Do-Re-Mi). Ein Beispiel für einen Major-Akkord ist der C-Dur-Akkord:

C-Dur: C – E – G

Minor-Akkorde hingegen sind etwas dunkler klingend und bestehen aus den Tönen 1 – b3 – 5 einer Tonleiter in Moll (Do-Re b -Mi). Ein Beispiel für einen Minor-Akkord ist der A-Moll-Akkord:

A-Moll: A – C – E

Seventh-Akkorde sind schon etwas komplexer als Major- oder Minor-Akkorde und bestehen aus den Tönen 1 – 3 – 5 – b7 einer Tonleiter. Ein Beispiel für einen Seventh-Akkord ist der C7-Akkord:

C7: C – E – G – Bb

Was sind Akkorde und wie bildet man sie auf der Gitarre?

Akkorde sind ein wesentlicher Bestandteil der Gitarrenmusik und jeder, der Gitarre lernen möchte, sollte sie deshalb auch unbedingt kennenlernen. Akkorde bestehen aus mindestens drei Tönen, die zusammengespielt werden und einen bestimmten Harmonieeffekt erzeugen. Auf der Gitarre werden Akkorde meist mit mindestens drei Saiten gleichzeitig gespielt. Es gibt verschiedene Arten von Akkorden, die alle unterschiedlichen Klänge erzeugen. Die drei Hauptarten von Akkorden sind Dur-Akkorde, Moll-Akkorde und Septimen-Akkorde. Dur-Akkorde haben einen klanglich „höheren“ Effekt, Moll-Akkorde hingegen einen klanglich „tieferen“ und Septimen-Akkorde sind irgendwo in der Mitte angesiedelt. Um Akkorde auf der Gitarre zu bilden, müssen Sie zunächst die jeweiligen Griffe lernen. Dies ist relativ einfach, da es für jede Art von Akkord einen typischen Griff gibt. Sobald Sie die Griffe beherrschen, können Sie die Akkorde ganz leicht an jeder beliebigen Stelle auf der Gitarre spielen. Zusammenfassend lässt sich also sagen, dass Akkorde ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Gitarrenmusik sind und man sie unbedingt beherrschen sollte, wenn man Gitarre lernen möchte.

Akkorde sind Gruppen von notenparallelen oder notennachfolgenden Tönen, die einen bestimmten Klang ergeben. Auf der Gitarre werden Akkorde oft mit zwei oder mehr Saiten gebildet. Die meisten Akkorde werden in der Regel mit den drei Grundsaiten E, A und D gebildet, aber es gibt auch Akkorde mit anderen Saiten. Die meisten Akkorde werden mit der linken Hand gespielt, während die rechte Hand die Bewegung der Saiten hin und her macht. Durch diese Bewegung wird das Klangvolumen des Akkords verändert und so entsteht das Melodische des Akkords.

Make Me Smart with guest Lindy West

I’m listening to a fave podcast, Make Me Smart, which did a “live in Seattle” recording. Tuesday’s episode includes them talking with Lindy West. They talk about work, about the WGA strike, and … Ozempic.

Link: https://www.marketplace.org/shows/make-me-smart/live-from-seattle-part-2-we-talk-to-lindy-west/

(Or search for Make Me Smart in your podcast app)

As Lindy notes, not everyone has $1000/mo for an injection to help lose weight that US insurance often only covers for diabetes. But even if you can pay $1000/mo and/or have diabetes*, will you loose enough to be “thin” or just “less fat”? People may treat you better smaller. Or, maddeningly, they may remind you to “keep it up!” in a cheery chirpy voice that makes you want to punch them. (Of course, can you afford bail and an assault charge?)

Meanwhile rich people may be Ozempic and similar drugs to be thinner because it’s fashionable. Their choice, but maybe they should contact the manufacturers about scaling up production so diabetics, who can get long-term negative health effects from not taking their meds, can be sure to get their prescriptions.

*I’m told by people with diabetes that Ozempic and similar drugs can really improve blood sugars in diabetes and that is a wonderful thing. Damage from high blood sugars is cumulative. Better blood sugar management is an investment in the future.

If you want to do something positive here:

If you’re in the US, contact your Members of Congress about price caps on insulin and other necessary treatments for diabetes and other chronic conditions.

In Broad Daylight

After every reported/published act of violence in the USA there is always a chorus of the shocked and appalled about it happening in broad daylight. As though the time of day such horrific acts occur is somehow unheard of or more abhorrent. Do they honestly believe bad things only happen at night? Rings a bit close to “what was she wearing?” to me. Everyday in the USA we see this shit scrawled across every major news/media outlet, our social media, and just everywhere. 

I cannot feign shock and horror any longer. I knew at the age of 6 that the monsters of the world will find you in broad daylight, no matter what kind of person you are. I witnessed the true horrors of police brutality at that young age in my own neighborhood. I saw with my own eyes how brutally Black women are spoken to and treated in our society. How the police treat the marginalized and the impoverished with a heavy sense of “how dare you make me waste my time on you, you aren’t worth the air you breathe” in their tone and eyes. This was in the 1980’s, so how is everyone still shocked?!

Do we really need to “be there” or “hear the other side” of these stories after literal centuries of this shit?! Why?! Why believe or prioritize some make believe reason or excuse that would somehow make it all make sense? The reason, the excuse, the cause is always white supremacy and capitalism. It is power and greed that requires the othering of those most vulnerable already. Yet so many seek to pin the blame on the victims, almost always. White people in particular will seek out any tiny seemingly negative detail about a person who was murdered by the police in the USA as though someone having any kind of life outside that moment somehow means they deserved it. 

In broad daylight is when life happens. We get up and work and just try to fucking live! I don’t know where the shock of something happening in broad daylight came about, but it is ridiculous to believe anyone is somehow safer because of the sun being out. Every single horror inflicted on me throughout my entire life has been in the daytime. Sure, stuff happened at night too, but it all started during the day (with my abuser). 

When we don’t know what to say, we all have the option of simply not saying anything. I wish more people would choose that option. Instead we spout platitudes and cliches with faux sincerity and it all means absolutely nothing. No one with any measure of power is going to do anything to change this country for the better. There is more incentive for them to maintain the status quo at every level. We are now at the point where people are getting shot simply for existing within the eyeline of some gun nut, and oh boy are there a ton of fucking gun nuts in this country.

Even where I live, in the so called liberal bay area (ha!), there are highway shootings often. Police here regularly brutalize our homeless population with that same exasperation I saw in my childhood. As though their inflated budgets aren’t part of the cause of the disparity we see everyday. People are desperate and hopeless, there is zero support or options for most. If you truly believe that a homeless person is less than or at all different from you, fuck all the way off! You are simply very wrong. We are all so much closer to being in their exact situation than one of opulence and fame. But so many of us would rather look away in disgust and repeat disgusting stereotypes and myths than to actually face and find solutions for these issues.

Violence is how this country was founded. White supremacy is what it was built on. Because those are our fundations, we would have to dismantle all of it from the top down in order to start anew. I see no way any type of reforms would do anything but virtue signaling at this point. Our government has shown us time and again since its inceptin that they don’t give a fuck about the people they govern. They are all in it for themselves and their donors. The violence will never end, there is no accountability to be had or sought. 

We must look out for ourselves and each other. Our government has failed us. With Covid19 especially, they have done more harm than I ever could have imagined possible. The deliberate misinformation and propaganda they have spread to enforce the idea that it is over or gone or just a cold or flu has killed hundreds of thousands, and disabled millions more. They claim it is for the economy but they will have a wake up call soon when the workforce is reduced to impossible levels due to endless refinfections, as our healthcare system is crumbling before our eyes, and more will be pushed into desperation and homelessness. 

It is all connected. It really fucking is! Once you see that it is impossible to unsee it. If you find yourself looking down your nose at anybody, it better be these rich white assholes holding all the wealth and not someone who has nothing. And if looking upon the destitute with repulsion and disgust is your reaction to seeing it, do better. Read up and look at the ways this is all connected. Your repulsion should be with those that force people into destitution, not those suffering as a result of the actions and wealth hoarding of those in power. None of us are better than the other. We are all humans. We all deserve to feel safe. No one should be attacked with violence for simply existing.

Life in a rural village in India

Housewives starting businesses with micro loans.

Thriving, some of them.

But if your husband decides to take your money or hit you or your children, you are his property. It’s his choice.

Or is it?

The Bandit Queens, by Parini Shroff, takes on all this and more, while being laugh out loud funny. The humor is sometimes dark but earned, and the ending is sweet.

Thinking affects doing

This is a somewhat dismal quote, but hang on for the flip side.

Individuals who perceived themselves as less active than others were up to 71% more likely to die in the follow-up period than those who perceived themselves as more active. This finding held across 3 samples and after adjusting for actual levels of physical activity and other covariates. Conclusions: Individuals’ perceptions about their level of physical activity strongly predicted mortality, even after accounting for the effects of actual physical activity and other known determinants of mortality. This suggests that perceptions about health behaviors may play an important role in shaping health outcomes. – Zahrt, O. H., & Crum, A. J. (2017). Perceived physical activity and mortality: Evidence from three nationally representative U.S. samples. Health Psychology, 36(11), 1017–1025.

Thinking you’re less active than your peers can have negative affects. Turns out the opposite is also true. Hotel maids who were educated on how much *exercise* is involved in their daily work and that they were getting more exercise than recommended had their blood pressure drop and other changes despite making no conscious changes to their routine- just being aware that their job activities was beneficial.

More recently, researchers found you can see similar affects with step counters. (Gift link – no paywall.)

• “You’re doing more than recommended” : health improvements.
• “You’re not exercising enough” : no improvements.

(I will note, as usual, that pedometers do not always work uniformly on superfat people etc etc.)

What I will say is: Give yourself credit for what you are doing for yourself.

Getting enough sleep? Yay!

Following up on some nagging thing like a sore tooth or getting a physical? Yay!

Rubbing lotion into your dry skin and maybe giving yourself a bit of a foot massage? Yay!

Going for a walk? Yay!

It all counts.

If it helps, remember this meme:

Alcohol

I seem to have hit on a string of books where the characters drink alcohol every day. Usually multiple drinks at a sitting.

Then I read a Tumblr post that reiterates that 3 to 5 drinks at a time is considered a binge, and the liver needs time to process it, so even if you only have a drink a day your liver is getting affected. Plus researchers poking holes in the theory that “moderate drinking” is good for you.

Yes, before he passed, my dad had alcohol-related dementia.  So it can be a button for me. But there ia a lot of weirdness around alcohol in our culture. I don’t thinking any drinking means “OMG PROBLEM”. I do wonder at cocktails followed by wine followed by port.

Possibly some media depictions of drinking are merely aspirations of having the time and money for that sort of thing, similar to Dorothy Sayers giving her character Lord Peter Wimsey a new, spacious flat with a butler and a racing car while she herself was “hard up”. I don’t want to deprive authors of wish fulfillment. And yet…why is this the wish?
