Q.
A. A piano chord, is when three or more notes on the piano are played harmoniously. It usually means 3 keys for a one, five - seven, or four chord, and more keys for the more complicated chords. Sort of confusing, but its basically a pretty group of notes. Hope this helps! : ]
piano chords??
Q. who knows piano chords here by numbers it's fingering...i don't know how to play it with notes so i prefer to have it on numbers,,not numerals but numbrs..like 2345345367
A. There are numeric ways you can build chords - counting keys.
For example, a major fifth is root note, then 4 keys up, then 3 keys up. (key = half-step)
A minor fifth is root note, then 3 keys up, then 4 keys up.
A 7th is root, then 4 keys, then 3 keys, then 3 keys.
A major 7th is root, then 4 keys, then 3 keys, then 4 keys.
You can use this sort of technique to get your hands used to building the chords - at some point, visual and muscle memory will take over. You may also find it helps to group chords by their hand shapes - e.g. C, F, and G major 5ths are 1-3-5 on the white keys, D, E, and A have the 3rd finger on a black key, and B is weird (3 and 5 are both on black keys).
A major scale is whole whole half whole whole whole half.
A whole step is 2 keys - a half step is 1 key.
Try it out! Whatever technique you use to learn and memorize - practice it!
What is a piano chord?
Q. I'm trying to learn how to play piano, and I saw something called a piano chord. What exactly does that mean?
A. A piano chord is no different from a regular chord except that it's played...on the piano. By simplest definition, a chord is a group of at least three tones. This could be, for example, A C# E, which is the A major chord. Any less than that would be a single tone or interval, which doesn't really establish key. Any more than three notes would produce seventh chords (for example, A #C E G, which is the A 7th chord) ninth chords (A C# E G B), and so on, usually up to thirteenths in jazz music.
There are entire courses built on the study of chords, or tonality. If you're interested in pop or jazz chords, you might want to look into this lightweight guide:

Note that it takes an entire lifetime to learn about all the possible chords and their functions in music, to really get to know what role each chord plays and which chord falls in place most naturally and meaningfully in a piece of music. Chord identification and other purely theory-related exercises won't take all too long, though.
Good luck with your studies, and I hope you keep it up. :)
