What are the notes in a c major chord?

It depends on which scale of c-minor you would use: there are four basic scales, aeolian: this is the scale you extract from E flat major (c, d, e flat, f, g, a flat, b flat), harmonic: (c, d, e flat, f, g, a flat, b), melodic (c, d, e flat, f, g, a, b) - in classical music this is the upgoing version, the downversion is c, b flat, a flat, g, f, e flat, d, c. then you have the c minor dorian scale: this you can hear on so what by miles Davis and is often related to the modal idiom: (c, d, e flat, f, g, a, b flat). to know which scale to use you have to know something about functional harmony: what you play has to have some reference to what's coming (a different chord), f.i.: you cannot play an a in c minor when going to f minor. Notes are what is played that creates music that can be heard. Notes are also what musicians read when they play an instrument.

What is the proper way to play the melodic minor scale when descending?

When descending the melodic minor scale, you should play the natural minor scale, which means lowering the 6th and 7th notes compared to the ascending melodic minor scale.


How do you play an e flat minor scale?

The natural minor would be: E flat, F natural, G flat, A flat, B flat, C flat, D flat, E flat. This has six flats (too many for me), and incidentally is exactly the same as D# minor, which has six sharps. The melodic minor is different on the way up and way down. On the way up, play C natural instead of C flat, and D natural instead of D flat. On the way down, play it the same way as you do a natural minor. And finally, harmonic minor: Leave the C flat alone and play a D natural instead of a D flat going both ways. Pianists tend to practice the harmonic minor, which strings practice the melodic minor. Just ask your teacher what type they would like you to use. There a lot of D# minor scales but i will give you one. |-----11--9--7--6---------------------------------------------E |-------------------9--7--6------------------------------------A |----------------------------8--6------------------------------D |----------------------------------9--8--6---------------------G |-------------------------------------------9--8--6------------B |----------------------------------------------------9--7------e

How do you play melodic on the piano?

What do you mean by this? If you mean a melody, it's the main tune. You play it either by ear or reading music. Or do you mean melodic minor scales? There are 2 types of minor scales; melodic and harmonic. I apologize if you are not familiar with music theory and don't understand what I am saying, but there are harmonic and melodic minor scales. Harmonics involve the key of the scale, plus the raised 7th note ascending and descending. Melodics are also the key of the scale, but with the 6th and 7th notes of the scale raised when ascending, and back to the raw form of the key when descending.
