(I just improvise with my fretless on a suite of) chords where I tried to extend the harmony with both hands.

Thanks...my path is changing a bit. I want to explore a chord medoldy style with both hands. I did it on guitar in the past but only with my left hand. This way I can put a richer harmony. A lot to do...lol.

This is wonderful! Your intonation is pretty spectacular if you don't mind me saying. Was this the fretless guitar you mentioned? Wow. I could listen to this stuff all day.

Hi jwanka...thanks for your comments. Yes, it's my fretless guitar. I can see that this guitar is appreciated :) and my main point was the harmony on the Stick... :roll:

In this progression there is an important chord and it's on the C7 (LH) with a D triad (RH). This way I do play a C13#11 instead of what you could (or should) be a Cmaj7 (6) Inside a "normal" progression. The blues color of this chord appealed me so strong when I made a mistake and played it the first time. I looked at my mistake and worked on it... :D to create this "blues" flavor. The chords are starting on an Am but going to conclude on a Em (which is the real key of this progression). Well...thanks anyways...

Cmajor plus Dmajor results in
CEG D F# A=Cmaj6/9#11
135 9 #11 6
This actually a IV chord in the key of G.
whenever you see a Major chord with a #11,
It's always a IV chord of the key.

Also if you use a DMaj in the left and a CMaj in the right it's a D7sus4? or not?

a la "Maiden Voyage" (first Real Book tune I learned how to play on The Stick)

I play a C7 (dominant 7th) in my LH...that's why I just wrote a C13#11... that includes the 9th and the #11th...plus a 13th on top of the harmony. It's not a simple triad in the LH.
