This has to be THE Most useful lesson I ever had. Starting tomorrow, I won’t stop until I learn all major cords. Thank you so very much

The 4 main chord types you should learn are major, minor, augmented, and diminished. Like she said use the 4-3 for major. Minor is 3-4. Augmented is 5-4 . Diminished is 3-3.

That's good and play around the circle of fifths and improvise in different rhythms. Sing them up and down as well. Sing the root note to the 3rd and 5th and back. Use letters, numbers or solfegge.

@AshleeYoungMusicStudio 2 ай бұрын

YESSSSS! Love this idea as well - thanks for sharing!

@user-qe4dw8dy9i Ай бұрын

Yeah. Start with C major and play it in all inversions; so CEG, EGC, GCE. Then play G major: GBD, BDG, DGB. Then your in position to play D major… Then do the same with the minor chords. Fastest way to learn the circle of fifths plus your learning chords in all inversions.

I had a great piano teacher in high school that taught this method. He was a jazz piano player and taught me how to play difficult chords pretty quickly with the half-step patterns. Genius!

@blizzred2143 3 күн бұрын

The way I remember them is 3-4 and 4-3. From the first note if you count 3 semitones/half tones then from there 4 semitones/half tones that will give you a Minor chord (Minor is smaller than major so 3 comes first). For a Major chord just do 4-3.

@signecrawford1838 Ай бұрын

Excellent! I have used these piano key patterns in my lessons for years. I teach woodwinds, but use the piano as a visual aid. I would also point out that in order to keep the scale tones alphabetical, the Db minor chord uses Fb, not an E. Nice presentation!

Even if you don't play piano, the piano is by far the best and most visual way of learning music theory. All the notes are literally laid out in front of you in linear form and in black and white.

Nicely laid out how chords work! Good idea to group them with the white-black key structure I've shown this to my son who wants to take out melodies on the piano.

I learned piano and was pretty frickin good when I was like 10-12...forgot almost everything. I've played guitar 15yrs so music has never left my head. I can still read sheet music and understand most of that, but I lost all scales and chords. Currently re-teaching myself these things so they're memorized, and when I teach myself songs like I have been the last few years, it goes MUCH FASTER and makes more sense! This is incredibly helpful, thanks!

I clicked on the video, not knowing what it meant to "memorize" chords. i thought maybe 'chord progressions' for jazz or something. then i realized this is for beginning musicians. but as i watched, i realized how i take it for granted that i've known this stuff since i was probably four years old and never really had to think about it much.
