Short Technical Study #10 (Encapsulated Quintal Clusters) - Application Over ii-V7-I Progressions + backing track

With the material presented in this series (Short Technical Studies) I seek to demonstrate some of the creative and fun ways in which I like to isolate and work on specific techniques on the guitar. Each study is designed with a unique concept and goal in mind and utilizes a variety of ways in which the technique can be used on the instrument.

Study #10 illustrates how to use the "encapsulated quintal clusters" presented in Study #9 when voicing ii-V7-I progressions in major keys. These three note harmonic textures are perfect to add a different flavor and color to your chordal vocabulary when playing over basic chord progressions. All examples presented in the key of C Major.

By playing through this set of exercises we can work on stretching, endurance, strength, coordination and dexterity in the left hand as well as fretboard logic and tonal center navigation over the entire instrument.
