You’ll learn:

• What seventh‑chord inversions are

• How bass‑note changes define inversion

• Slash‑chord notation (C7/E, C7/G, C7/Bb)

• Figured‑bass notation (6/5, 4/3, 4/2)

• How inversions affect sound and voice‑leading

• Interval structures above the bass

• Practical usage in classical, jazz, pop, and film scoring
