Please and thank you... â¥

A. Chords are chords. There is no difference between playing a C chord on the guitar or the C Chord on the piano, you are playing a combination of the C, E, and G note. Depending on the order would be the type of variation. That's about the only difference.

I don't have the capabililty to write this out for you in Sheet Music. But you should be able to figure it out on your own if I tell you what notes are in each chord.

C (C, E, G)
G (G, B, D)
Am (A, C, E)
Em (E, G, B)
F (F, A, C)

You are playing in the Key of C Major, so only the white keys will be used. NO sharps or flats.

Start at the middle C, then hit the E two keys to the right of the C, then hit the G, five keys up from the C. That's your first C Chord. Then find the other notes in that same area.

Original Question

Piano & Guitar Chords?
Q. I'm trying my hand at writting a song. I am wonder thoguh, does the guitar chords have to be the same as the piano. In other words I am playing the piano part and as we go along, for example. We get to a part and the piano chord changes to Cm. Let's further assume the guitar is playing at this exact moment also. Would both play the same chord if both are playing at the same time?
Would it be possible they are playing different chords if both are playing at the same time?

Thank You in Advance...

A. It's extremely common for the piano to take the lower full chord and the guitar to take an upper related triad, so no they don't necessarily have to be the same chord but almost always they will be related.

Original Question

how to convert piano chords into minor?
Q. like I wanna play a song, and I wanna make the chords minor to make it sound darker, but how do I do it. Is there like a way to do such? Help would be great, thanks!

A. You might want to mean a minor progression chord. Yup, it is possible. Converting pieces from major progression(where your main chord is a major) to minor progression(where your main chord is a minor) is a little bit tiresome. But, I'll try to explain this as brief but precise and easy to understand as i could.

The result of converting the major progression depends on what minor scale you would like to use.

The most common scale is the Harmonic Minor on its descending order (I call it personally HMDO). That is, 1 2 â­3 4 5 â­6 â­7 8. Why HMDO? It is because HMDO scales are very similar to Major scales(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8). For example in A minor scale(on HMDO):A-B-C-D-E-F-G-A', just move the first two notes and you'll get the C Major scale!

Legend used: converted to: =>

1.) Ok. Start making a list of the chords that are used.
2.) Identify what is the main/root chord being used. Move or transpose that chord 3 halfsteps/frets(or 1 & 1/2 wholesteps) DOWN . Example: G => E, C => A, D => B, and etc.
3.) Minor that chord. Ex: E =>Em, A => Am, B => Bm, etc. This will later become you root chord.
4.) Look for the fifth chords(if available) from the list. 5th chords are found by moving 4 notes up from the root note of a major scale. For example, if you have a C major chord progression, the major scale therefore is on C scale. That is, C-D-E-F-G-A-B-C'. Moving 4 notes from the root note which is C, we get G. Another one is, if you have an F major chord progression, the major scale therefore is on F scale. That is, F-G-A-Bb-C-D-E-F'. Moving 4 notes from the root note which is F, we get C.
5.) OPTIONALLY, move or transpose that chord(i refer to the 5th chord) down 3 halfsteps/frets. For example: D => B, G =>E and etc. So why optionally? Doing this step will make your chord progression more darker and 'minorer' to listen. But, if this results to a terrible sound/output, leave this step. Sometimes, you can also play either the natural 5th chord or the transposed 5th chord on one song. There are song that really have this type of progression.
6.) Leave the other chords as is. Don't change anything on them but if you think that you must have to do something on those chords, just do it. There's no NOs in music. Your style, your music!
7.) That's all, You're now have the converted minor progression chord
Those are the basics of transposing major progressions to minor progressions. And lastly, Experiment!


That's all for not now. Hope i helped.
