Piano chords in the key of E???

Q. Ok, so what chords are in the key of E in piano if you are making a song. If it is just E chords, why is it different for guitar? The chords in Guitar key of E are: E, Fm#, Gm#, A, B, and Cm#. I need a little help here!!!

A. Chords are chords and they don't change depending on instrument. Sometimes the name of the chord changes if you are working with a transposing instrument, (Trumpet, Clarinet, Saxophone, French Horn etc.) but it is still the same chord.

The common chords in the key of E are

E - Tonic or I chord

A - Subdominant or IV chord

B / B7 - Dominant or V chord

C#min / C#min7 - Submediant or vi chord

F#min- supertonic or ii chord

D# / D#7 / D# half Diminished - Sobtonic or vii chord

A couple Common Chord Progressions

E / C#min7 / F#min7 / B7 (One SIx Two Five Chord)

E / A / B7 (one four five chord)

E / F#min7 / B / B7 ( One, Two, Five, Five seven chord)

The trick with Piano is to keep the root and fifth of the chords in the bass, the color tones in the center or upper range of the keyboard, and if you are playing with a bass and other rhythm instruments, less is more.

Most people put triads in the left hand when they are starting out on piano and then complain when it sounds all muddy. The sound waves are literally bumping into each other, so you can't really blame the instrument. You got eighty eight keys and ten fingers, so you got to give the sound some room to breath. I hope I have answered your question and I wish the you the best. I stuck a couple quick links below that may help to reinforce what I wrote here.

Original Question

Which piano chord would this be...?
Q. I'm new to piano so I was wondering which chord would D-minor + A-minor + D-minor be?
And what are some ways to know which chord is which?

A. D minor and A minor ARE chords.

If you mean to say that you are playing the notes D A and D, then that's a kind D5. If you're really confused and think that minor is another word for sharp or flat, then it's either a D#5 or Db5.

If you are stacking 3 chords on top of each other, it's just a big Dm9.

The type of chord is determined by the relationships between the different notes. This is usually illustrated with interval values, starting with one moving up to seven (for each of seven letters), and sharp & flat signs. For example, a major chord has the notes 1 3 5 (each number corresponds to a note from the major scale). A dominant 7th chord has the notes 1 3 5 b7. A Minor 9 (Major 7) chord has the notes 1 b3 5 7 9. It's really not that complicated if you actually learn how it works.

Here's a little chart I made with a bunch of these "chord formulas"

Original Question

What are the piano chords to Marija Serifovic - Molitva?
Q. I'm not very good at playing piano by ear so can someone give me the simple chords to the song?
And the notes in the chords too if that is okay.
Thanks,

A. I used http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUjnHhQV8Os for the chords -- I hope it's the right song.

I think this is right. Feel free to email me if you have questions or if any of this sounds wrong.

Here's a list of the chords, with the notes each contains. LH means left hand, RH means right hand:

Dm: LH: D RH: ADF

C/D: LH: D RH: GCE

Bb: LH: Bb RH: FBbD

C/Bb: LH: Bb RH: GCE

Am7: LH: A RH: GCE

Gm7: LH: G RH: FBbD

Gm: LH: G RH: GBbD
