how to play triads and major chords

by Benoit Sat Aug 16, 2008 11:00 pm

hello,

In the second or third lessons, Andrew explains the triads (major chords and reverse major chord in fact). Could you show us the fingering for the triads in all the major scales? I think that practising triads help with the fingering to play chords.

Thank yous,

Benoit

Usually you use your fingers the way they feel best... In a major chord it's 1,3,5, and first invertion is 1,2,5 and second invertion is 1,3,5...
Sometimes it feels better using another fingering, it's no correct way of doing it, it's just about comfort, and how good your hand fits.

I just wonder how to press C# major chords as the 3 finger has to press the F key but the F# is in the way.
