Who should learn this skill?
Learn to hear (and understand) the darker/melancholy tone of minor chords (as opposed to the more grounded major sound).
Primary Concepts for This Skill
- Writing songs (or song sections) based on exclusively minor chords will make the song “feel” dark/heavy/melancholy.
- In every major key, the chords built from the 2nd, 3rd and 6th scale degrees will produce a minor chord.
- Minor chords have a minor 3rd (flatted by a 1/2 step – or 1 fret). If you modify a major chord so that the third is flatted, you’ll get a minor chord instead.
Pre-Requisites (Recommended Only)
This skill is so fundamental that it has no pre-requisites. Word to the wise… learn this first :)
