What's the difference between minor and major?

Q. The chords is what I mean. And how can I tell if it's minor or major?

A. There's only a slight difference as far as where your placing your fingers on a piano or guitar to create a major or minor chord.

As far as how they each sound, most people say that major chords sound bright and royal, while minor chords sound darker and moody.

Get a beginner's book to learning guitar/piano or a DVD. Most books and DVDs have detailed diagrams that will show you how to preform the basic minor and major chords. Sites like musiciansfriend.com sell these.

How to Apply Music Theory to Bass Side of an Accordion?
Q. Hi, I am new at playing the accordion.
I would like to apply my piano sheet music to my accordion. The right hand side stays the same, but I don't know how to play the piano sheet music for the left hand side on accordion. How must I do this? Thanks!

A. The bass notes on an accordion are arranged in fifths (C, G, D, A etc.). To play the piano music I would take the root tone of the chord you would play on the piano and play it as a bass note on the accordion. Another thing you could do is playing the bass note and the chord interchangeably. In a waltz this would give you the classic accordion sound: Hoom Pa Pa Hoom Pa Pa etc.
