Welcome to Diatonic Harmony - Diatonic Harmony can be some pretty heady stuff so I'll try and feature the best bits as I learn more about it - but for now this chart is very cool! Try to remember it it's well worth it. |
Diatonic Harmony: If we look at The Major Scale in the key of C (white keys on a piano) and we start on the C key and move up a note at a time C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C or we can think of those notes as numbers C=1, D=2, E=3, F=4, G=5, A=6, B=7, C=8 once we think in numbers we can use this Diatonic Harmony chart. If you hold down key 3 then chances are that the next note you want to press is 6 and then from 6 chances are you would want to move to 2 and so on. This of course is not set in stone but if you want to play along to your favorite song and you know what key its in then this chart helps you sound like you know what your doing. |
| Check out the Circle of Fifths to learn about Key Signatures and check out Wah Wah Guitar it has a video showing 7 chord finger shapes that lets one play any song in any key and if you use this chart and the seven finger shapes you will see how cool Diatonic Harmony is. |
