 | | For example, in the key of G, one of the seven possible polychords is C/D. By C/D I mean a chord in which a C triad is played on the 6th, 5th, and 4th strings, and a D triad on the 3rd, 2nd, and 1st strings. |
 | | Knowing polychords well gives you an opportunity to inject them in your music, be it compositions, be it free improvising, be it chord substitution when playing changes, etcetera. |
 | | Note that the 6-5-4 component of the C/D polychord is, of course, just a C triad in 2nd inversion (the 5th is a G, and it's in the bass, so it's 2nd inversion). |
