![]() ![]() Test out G majorīefore we move on, let’s try two more major triads: G Major and F Major. Don’t worry if you don’t know every note in the scale! We’re only going to play the basic piano chords, not the scales. The G major scale is spelled G, A, B, C, D, E, F#, G. This means the G major triad is spelled G, B, D. The G major triad is the second chord being played. You can recognize the G major triad by the letter ‘G’ written above the notes. The F major scale is spelled F, G, A, Bb, C, D, E, F and so the F major triad is spelled F, A, C. The F major triad is the fourth chord being played. You can recognize the F Major triad by the letter ‘F’ written above the notes on the score. There is an easy way to quickly find any major chord without having to know or think about a scale: play the “root” note of the chord – that’s the note that has the same name as the chord. Now count up 4 notes, including both black and white notes. Hold down the C and the E and count up another 3 notes (black and white) and play the 3rd note which is G. You can make ANY major chord with this little trick to learn to play piano. Try starting on a different note and create another major chord. Likewise, you can make a minor chord in the same way by counting up 3 notes followed by 4 notes. Minor triads are made up of the 1st, 3rd, and 5th notes of the minor scale. This time let’s use A Minor as an example.
