The most important note of a chord is the tonic, followed by the third and the seventh, as they are what determines the quality of the chord (i.e. Major, minor, diminished etc.)
Actually, the 7th only comes into play if it's a chord that includes the 7th. A major chord is the tonic, third, and fifth. A minor chord is the tonic, flat third, and fifth. A diminished chord is the tonic, flat third, and flat fifth. None of those chords (also several others) include the 7th.
Well it matters, there are 12 major chords in Music. For example the G scale has;G-A-B-C-D-E-F-G
A major triad consists of the tonic, 3rd, and 5th, or I, III, V
C major 7 is made up of C E G B.
C
g
That is called the "base" of the chord. Try not to get this word confused with "root," which is the lowest note of the chord if it is in root position. Root position is when the chord is built up in thirds. Ex: C, E and G make up the C chord and the root of the chord "C" is also the base note. If this same C chord is mixed around so that G is the lowest note then higher in order is C and then E, then G would be the base note of the chord.
The root note on a guitar is the same thing as the root note on any other instrument. If you are playing a C chord, C is the root. With a G chord, G is the root, and so on.
There are two main triad types (chords) that contain a perfect fifth between the root and the fifth: the major chord and the minor chord. The major chord is created by starting with a note (the root), adding a major third on top of that, and adding a minor third on top of that note. A C major chord would look like this: C, E, G (with the E and the G stacked on top of the C). The minor chord is created by starting with a note (again, the root), adding a minor third, and then adding a major third--just the opposite of a major chord. A C minor chord would look like this: C, Eb (E-flat), G.
To find an inversion of a Chord, you simply move the lowest note in the chord up and octave and leave the rest the same. Alternatively, you can move the highest note in the chord down an octave. Example: C-E-G (C Major Root Position) E-G-C (C Major 1st Inversion) G-C-E (C Major 2nd Inversion
The note names in a major chord and a minor chord are the same. The only difference is the flattened third. F major chord is F A C where f minor is F Ab C.
The term, "root" in Musical terms means the note that the rest of a chord is based around. For example, a C major chord which consists of the notes C, E and G would have a root note of C as it the note that allows the rest of a chord to follow. It is always the first note of any chord.
A major chord consists of the root (tonic) note, the third scale degree (mediant) and the fifth note (dominant). In the key of C major - without sharps and flats - the C major chord consists of the notes C, E and G.
That is called the "base" of the chord. Try not to get this word confused with "root," which is the lowest note of the chord if it is in root position. Root position is when the chord is built up in thirds. Ex: C, E and G make up the C chord and the root of the chord "C" is also the base note. If this same C chord is mixed around so that G is the lowest note then higher in order is C and then E, then G would be the base note of the chord.
It means the root of the chord is the lowest note being played. If it's a C-major chord, the C is on the bottom.
The root note on a guitar is the same thing as the root note on any other instrument. If you are playing a C chord, C is the root. With a G chord, G is the root, and so on.
There are two main triad types (chords) that contain a perfect fifth between the root and the fifth: the major chord and the minor chord. The major chord is created by starting with a note (the root), adding a major third on top of that, and adding a minor third on top of that note. A C major chord would look like this: C, E, G (with the E and the G stacked on top of the C). The minor chord is created by starting with a note (again, the root), adding a minor third, and then adding a major third--just the opposite of a major chord. A C minor chord would look like this: C, Eb (E-flat), G.
A basic chord, a triad, is made up of the root note, the third, and the fifth. The root note is the naming note for the chord. For example, the C major chords root is C. Then the third of that chord would be three notes up to E starting with C(C - D- E). The fifth is the G, which is five notes up from C (C-D-E-F-G). Any chords that are formed naturally by the notes of the key that it is in, are called diatonic chords. C major is a diatonic chord in the key of C.
The III note is A. However, the 3rd note in the chord is the V note. That is C. The F major chord is F, A, C.
To find an inversion of a Chord, you simply move the lowest note in the chord up and octave and leave the rest the same. Alternatively, you can move the highest note in the chord down an octave. Example: C-E-G (C Major Root Position) E-G-C (C Major 1st Inversion) G-C-E (C Major 2nd Inversion
Means it's a chord were C is the fundamental note. The fundamental note, is the note from were the chord is constructed. So if it's a C major chord, it could be C E G or C E G B
The note names in a major chord and a minor chord are the same. The only difference is the flattened third. F major chord is F A C where f minor is F Ab C.
If I understand the question correctly, the answer is yes. For example: the 7th note of the C scale is the 7th of a C chord. If it's lowered a half step, it's called a dominant chord, and if it is not flatted, it's called a major 7th. In the case of the C scale, it's the B. C, E, G, and B is a Cmaj7. C, E, G, and B-flat is a C7.
