The video begins with an introduction to slash chords and how they can spice up common chord progressions.

• The instructor plans to show three useful slash chords that can substitute the five chord in progressions.
• An example is given using a G to C resolution in the key of C, which is predictable but can be made more intriguing with slash chords.

The first slash chord example uses the fourth chord over the fifth degree of the scale.

• An F chord over a G bass (F/G) is presented to replace the G chord in a cadence back to the C chord.
• This chord can be named G11 or G9sus4 and is demonstrated in the context of The Beatles' song 'The Long and Winding Road'.

The second slash chord is the opposite of the first, using the fifth chord over the fourth degree of the scale.

• This segment explains the use of G/F, a common chord in the 'Royal Road' chord progression found in Japanese music.
• An application of this chord is shown in the song 'Peaches' by Jack Black, written for the Super Mario film.

The third slash chord involves a G triad over the sixth degree of the scale (A).

• This chord, sometimes referred to as the 'Tiny Dancer' chord, is used in Elton John's song of the same name.
• It effectively creates an A minor 11 sound and can be used to replace the A minor chord in the key of C.

The video is sponsored by Timbro, an interactive app for learning piano and guitar.
