      Hi Richie,

      Page 90, Lesson book vol 2, Summertime etude – Optus 37.

      The footnote states that the Cm9 – F9 are functioning diatonically as the I-7 and IV7 of the natural minor key.

      Can you clarify please? Isn’t the IV of Cm9 (natural minor) F-7, hence the F9 in this case is not diatonic?

      Thanks
      David

        Hi David,
        Thanks for pointing that out…it should read of the “melodic minor” and NOT “natural minor”!
        Should be fixed in the upcoming update this coming week.

          Thanks Richie,

          That makes sense now.

          Cheers
