MAJOR 6TH MUSIC CHORD
|
| MAJOR 6TH A Major 6th chord is a group of harmonic notes. Basically for this chord, one would add the 6th note of the scale to a more common Major chord. To determine which notes are to be used for this chord, let us look at a scale. We will use a scale in the key of C to show how this chord is put together: Scale in Key of C
A scale in the key of C shown above are the normal notes that one might expect in a song. Instead of calling the notes C, D, E, etc. or 1, 2, 3 , we also could think of the sequence as the singing notes: do, re, me fa, so, la ti do. In this case, a Major 6th chord is made up of the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 6th notes of the scale. For a C Major 6th chord then (key of C), the notes of this chord would be: C, E, G and A. This chord would be abbreviated: CM6 |
