Q. Could someone help me here? What is a Dominant + Major chord in the key of C? And also, what is a Dominant + Minor chord in the same key of C? The instrument, by the way, is a Piano.
Thanks!
A. OOOH! ANOTHER PERSON WHO PLAYS THE PIANO!! lol
Anyways, when you have a Dominant chord, its just a chord that is built on the 5th note of the scale. Therefore the dominant chord in the key of C major is
G(5th note) B and D
and if you need a Dominant 7th chord, it would be
G B D and F
The minor Dominant chord would to just build a chord on the 5th note of the minor scale. Therefore G Bb D
Dominant 7th
G Bb D F
hope i helped!
How to practice piano chords?
Q. Piano
A. (assuming you are very new)
well major and minor chords are really simple and piano is really simple
play a major C you play C,E, and G, from C count to the keys to E it is 4 half steps, then 3 half to G this is the same for every major chord, you have the root(C) then 4h/s(E) then 3h/s(G), minor chords are the same but you have the root(C) then 3h/s(Eb) then 4h/s(G) now you know how to construct every major minor chord just by counting half steps, then you just have to practise until you memorize each, I suggest you play start by just by learning these basics and understand that no mater what the chord your thumb and pinky are alway static you do not move them when switching chords you'll find that almost every chord has these finger the same distance apart, except Bm/B and Bbm/Bb this is the odd chord where you'll have to think about possitioning your pinky if you play a B and count 7 half steps you'll find that you're pinky is on a black key and your thumb on a white while with all other major/minor chords its white white or black black
Figuring Piano chords?
Q. I have a set of chords on the piano that i cant figure out.
here they are:
Am7/G
Am/E
C/E
D/F#
G/B
Can you tell me what notes to play on the piano and in order.
Ty~
More info, you know the song called "It Ends tonight" by All American Rejects, well yea i was wondering if you see if you could figure them out with the left hand and not with both hands just figure the slash chords with the left hand.
A. The note after the slash is played in the left hand. So just look for the first chord, then add the second note (the one after the slash) in the left hand:
