Q. I'm new to guitar, don't know how to put this. When I'm playing a song in D, what other chords are suitable to be played along side D? List each one of them please, especially the jazz chords!
I just picked up the guitar yesterday so the only ones I know for D are A & G haha so I appreciate the help. Thanks! :)
A. Hello there,
Here is a link to a chord progression generator. You can use it to find various combinations of chords. For instance, you want to play in D. You can check out the I 4 5 1 progression. You can hear how it sounds and see what the chords are. Since you are just starting, you may not know what the 1 4 5 1 means. You don't need to at this point. The numbers refer to the root note (1) in this case D, the 4th note up the scale and the 5th note up the scale. Don't get hung up on that aspect. You will pick up the theory in time. For now, use try select different progressions to see how they sound. If you like them, use them. A easy way to experiment on chord progressions without understanding music theory.

Also, here is a link to a chord chart. It is a pdf file and several pages long. Just down load the pdf file to your computer. Whenever you want to see what the fingering is for any chord, you can find it on the chart.

Later,
if there was a music generator.......?
Q. assume that it didnt add into the equation dynamics and everything like that, just notes for example from whole notes up to 16th notes (and their respective rests). if u had a music generator create every type of composition available (kind of like a computer program that guesses combinations for passwords),and obviously this is a huge pool of compositions and dynamics would only make it immensely bigger, then wouldnt u get all compositions that could be created? without dynamics, would the generator eventually come up on something like "appassionata" or other famous compositions?
A. If your music generator made every possible composition then of course you would eventually generate all the greatest works, however you'd also literally have trillions of other pieces that are rubbish.
On piano alone if you allow for the shortest duration to be a 16th, and no grace notes and at most 4 notes sounding at once then in a single 4/4 bar there are 1,170,951,468,286,280,525,862,918,487,925,216 possible arrangements of notes
if you simplify to chords that are physically possible to play, likely rhythms and tonal harmonies you still have about 6 trillion possible ways to arrange just the first measure. Add in expressive markings, tempos, etcetera and the numbers grow exponentially. So unless you put in other parameters to filter the junk you'd have to sift through a lot of non-sense.
Guitar help, please!??
Q. I have never played guitar before, I play some piano, not much...I need to learn how to play "I Miss You" , by Miley Cyrus, soon...I can't take lessons cause' I have no money..I need to learn the song for a friend...Please help...I can learn it on piano too, but I would rather do it on guitar! PLEASE HELP!
THANKS
A. It is going to be extremely difficult to finger guitar chords quickly if you've never played before. I would say it will take several months before your able to make the chord changes fast enough to play a song. I'm not sure how fast you need to accomplish this, but it could be tough. Here are some links to get you started. The first is a link to the song which shows you what chords to play. The second is a link to a chord generator which will show you how to finger each chord. With persistent practice you'll get it.
Good luck!
