Lesson 9 - 10th October 2016

We played this song on the keyboards.


Chord sheet is here.



We looked at Sus4 chords, which are explained well here.



Some of you started to look at Seventh Chords

(we will be going back over this so don't worry if you don't get it yet)



If you know your major scales, this should be very easy!

The major seventh chord is formed of the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th notes of the major scale.

ie. root, major 3rd, perfect 5th, major 7th.





In the minor seventh chord, the 3rd and 7th are flattened

ie. root, minor 3rd, perfect 5th, minor 7th


 


The dominant 7th chord is more of a mixture:

Root, major third, perfect 5th, minor 7th.













Here is a more comprehensive list of 7th chords if you are feeling confident:
