The C major and C Minor Triads – A Sample Video Lesson

Part of learning to play the piano is understanding

  1. How to make chords
  2. How to modify those chords from major to mino

In this particular sample lessons clip the instructor from Learn and Master Piano, Will Barrow, illustrates how there is only one note difference between the C major and minor triads.

If the concept of a triad, major, or minor chord doesn’t make sense to you, don’t worry, this lesson would be something you’d watch after you’d already learned the basics.

For someone who already has a basic understanding of the Piano, then this video may help you better understand the difference between major and minor chords and triads.

Something to pay attention to in this video is the virtual keyboard above the instructor. This shows, in real time, exactly what notes are being played while he’s explaining new concepts. This is a valuable learning tool for beginners and one that most piano lessons online, or piano lesson dvds, don’t offer.

So enjoy the lesson!
