    Chorus Forms - Hook

    Uploaded by

    Giorgos Triantafyllou
    The hook of a song becomes the groove that the whole band plays throughout. For example, in the song "I'm Ready", the lick "2 2" 2, 2 2" 2" played on the I7 chord establishes the hook, which is then transposed to "4+ 3' 4+, 4+ 3' 4+" on the IV7 chord. An AAA chord form can accompany a song's standard groove or hook, and chorus forms work well over a 12 bar blues structure that other genres like rock, country, and jazz are often based on.

    A hook permeates the entire song, and yes, the band (rhythm section)

    commonly plays the hook as well... the whole song... it essentially becomes the
    groove. "I'm Ready" is a great example.
    The lick 2 2" 2, 2 2" 2 is played on the I7 Chord... 4+ 3' 4+, 4+ 3' 4+ is a
    sequence of it (transposition) played on the IV7 Chord, etc. It's what makes the
    song special.
    An AAA Chord Form can be played on top of a standard groove or to a song
    with a hook.
    Chorus Forms works in 12 Bar Blues and some Blues-based styles such as
    Rock, Country and Jazz... the form needs to the 12 Bar form though. The
    principals you learn in this study are applicable to improvising, just not so much
    the way we use repetition with the 12 Bar Blues.
