The C Major scale is a musical scale beginning and ending on the note C.
In ascending order (going up) the notes are:
C D E F G A B C
The pattern of whole and half steps is:
W W H W W W H
The major scale has a bright sound, which differs from the minor scale which has a dark sound. Most music is based on these two scales.
Major and minor refer to the tonality of the scale or chord. The I-note (tonic?) of the major scale has a major tonality to it. However, so does the lydian (IV) and the mixolydian (V). The dorian (II), phrygian (III), and the aeolian (VI) scales are minor in tonality. The locrian scale (VII) has a diminished sound or feel to it.

Try playing a typical I-IV-V chord progression (in this example, C - F - G) and play the different scales over it and you'll hear the mood or feel that each scale imparts.

Mey Sovannara Principal chords are main chords built from each scale and they can be used and played in replacement of other chords that are built from a scale. There are three principal chords in each scale. In the major keys, the three are tonic major chord, Subdominant major chord and dominant seventh chords. In the minor keys, the three are tonic minor chord, Subdominant minor chord and dominant seventh chords. To avoid using too many chords and chords that are not pleasant to your ears, you can use these three principal chords to replace other chords in a scale.
The "Primary" Chords in music are the three most commonly used chords. Those are the I, IV, and V (or V7) chords. Meaning the chords that are built off of the first, fourth, and fifth degree of a scale.

In music theory, a "three in the key" typically refers to the third scale degree of a particular key. For example, in the key of C major, the third note of the scale is E. The importance of the third scale degree lies in its role in determining the quality of chords in a key - major chords are built on the first, third, and fifth scale degrees, while minor chords are built on the second, fourth, and sixth scale degrees.
