Chords are built from scales. A triad is the most simple type of chord, it consists of 3 notes. To construct a triad you must take the 1st, 3rd and 5th. You could think of it as playing the root note, skipping the next note of the scale and playing the next one. Again, skip the following note and play the next one. These three notes create a triad. You can get major triads as well as minor triads (and more!).
You can also play these chords in different inversions. To do this, move whichever note is on the bottom of the chord to the top.

My god, he's still liking comments a year later, not to mention the magnificent tutorials. What a legend.
Many thanks, I've been looking for "piano chords book free download" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Nonason Ranincoln Genie - (should be on google have a look )?
It is a great one of a kind guide for discovering how to play the piano like a pro minus the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my m8 got great success with it.
Lol now 3 years
Hey everyone, the greatest results that I have had was with the Turbo Piano Secret (i found it on google) definately the best system that I've tried.
Lol
🔥
I liked the simply explanation of " every chord is built from a scale , to really know chords we need to know a scale " that's extremely important to know as a beginner
So now you are a Beethoven ?😅
@@gogadev who hurt you ?
I literally cannot wait to get home to try this out on my piano
Thank you! So much!
After several years of playing around, pointlessly, sounding horrible, I watched this video, and I understand now. I almost sound good... Lol
This explained what I, as a woodwind, never learned.
Thanks for explaining it perfectly.
Excellent tutorial, very clear easy to understand in a simple language that even a child could understand. Thank you
As a child I agree with this statement
@@chiaracongiuhughes9102 same
Anybody else just get their first piano/keyboard? Lol 🙋
Yup new midi controller
What's a midi controller! (I guess I could look it up of course). But no, I've had a Fender Rhodes for something like 40 years and barely ever touched it
me😂
I bought a fucking big keyboard with no history of musical instruments
Hows it going?
The fact that he really made it so easy to understand. Thank you so so much for making this !! ❤️❤️
Finally understanding these basic concepts that no one has ever explained well to me before 😭
After a year of lessons, I could never understand this. You just made it so clear for my musically stunted self. Thank you.
Happy to help!
Jesus thanks mate it’s all I need straight to the point. No nonsense
I’m a no nonsense kinda guy 🙏
Finally a tutorial I understand, ha ha. :-)
Many thanks, I've been looking for "guitar chords to piano chords" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Nonason Ranincoln Genie - (should be on google have a look )?
It is a smashing one off guide for discovering how to play the piano like a pro minus the normal expense. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my friend got excellent success with it.
Brooo this guy still liking comments, this video was 4 years ago
Liking and replying 😉
Thank you for your lovely voice, slow and easy pace, for highlighting notes on the piano and showing the sheet music! Best tutorial ever!
I was searching for a tutorial, then I found a channel which name is pianopig, basically instant click😂
🐷🐷🐷
Man, I am a new learner and this video was mind blowing
It really helped me a lot. Thanks again!❤
I am no musician, but happen to teach 6th grade music. This really helps me to at least understand music that i teach children
I am so happy this video exists.
What a great video. I'm actually using this in my high school music teaching and the students really understand the basics with the way you have displayed this and explained it.
Thank you so much for these videos. You are the only person on youtube who makes learning easy to understand. I'm really enjoying playing the keyboard thanks to you!
love how you just jump straight into it! some videos are really long but this ones really to the point
It's cool that we musicians can share our professional experience via CZcams! I'm so happy I am not alone. Viva la Musica!
One of the best beginner courses so far
Thank you so much! What an excellent teacher and such a simple way to learn.I’m so excited.
Tysm I was struggling majorly before this vid ☺️
Best chord lesson ever. Thank you. I am learning the piano from you tube. You are the best so far.
This is great. I've played 30 years and subbed because your explaining is so helpful and clear ☺️
Been playing Guitar for 25 years but piano has always eluded me and at 47 have decided to give it a go. Perfect tutorial style. Thanks.
Thanks dude, this was so helpful 👍
Wow ! This is great!.I've seen so many videos but this one is very easy to understand..Thank you.Keep it up!
From one pig to another, this is incredibly helpful.
🐷🐷🐷
Thank you brother, i am trying to self teach my self to play at my church and certainly youve helped me ! May God be w you
I am so very new to this. Spent some time browsing CZcams for nubby lessons. This is the best intro I’ve come across. Thanks.
Easiest explanation I have heard about chords. Thanks super helpful. We definitely be following all you session
The best & easy to understand tutorial on the internet so far. Wishing you all the very best brother! ❤️
Wow you've explained this so clearly! Brilliant lesson thank you
Such a concise and to the point example of a chord and how its formed Give yourself a gold star
This will for sure help me. I’ve been kind of wanting to learn the piano and this is the video I needed. Thank you so much!
Great start to the series. Thanks!
Thanks a lot! The first thing I learnt (after the key names) is that the 1st, 3d and 5th note of a C scale make C major. Then, I'd go to a video and see a person play a supposed C major, but with the fingers on the wrong places! Thanks to you, now I know it's an inverted chord! Thanks a bunch!
Clean and clear. Thank you champ.
This was reallyyyy helpful can't wait to look at all your other videos!! Thankyou ❤️😁😁
A pianopig video a day will teach me the piano right away 😭✨✨🤝
You are a great instructor. Thank you for sharing.
Exellent Piano tutorial. The other piano tutorials just play the chord, not to tell what it means and how we can classify it. In this video, you explained it really well.
You are amazing sir, just loved your way of teaching...I shall follow all your posts on you tube
Started learning notes two days ago, glad I found this! My friend told me once I learn chords, it'll be easier.
Mind blown! My piano teacher has been talking about inversions and showing them to me but I never really got it until now. The light bulb is finally on, thank you!!!
Thank you so much for such a great tutorial!! Learning The Keyboard is a struggle only the learner understands and - literally every step is a challenge
But this made it a lot simpler
Esp the inversion part!!
Excellent video. Looking for more of your videos!
This is so helpful thank you so much, from an absolute beginner at 72yrs it's never too late to learn. I've subscribed
Wow! You explain the concepts very well at a learnable pace. Thanks very much
Thank you so much! this was like a piano lesson for dummies to me lol. Easy to understand and your voice was nice to listen to! thank you!
Amazing I love how this is free and so amazing
You explained this so simply and easily rather than everyone else on yt “HOW TO PLAY EVERY SONG EVER!!!😱😳😱!!” Thank you for keeping it simple lol 😂
Thank you so much, this is literally the only video that made sense to me
This was an excellent explanation. Thank you very much for the help!
Thank you so much I was so confused about the major chords and all those things, this is too underrated.❤️
You're welcome! Glad you found it useful 😃
You just made me feel good about myself. Brilliant teacher. Thank you.
Thanks, you have now given me my first lesson! And you answered questions I forgot I needed to ask!!!
Edit, subbed with enthusiasm!
Thank you! Now these shapes finally make sense
Absolutely the best... Either I wasnt paying attention to EVERYONE ELSE or YOUR THE BEST
I am also a Beginner have Just began playin with both hands...
One video if you stop & really practice it comes much faster then on any other system I tried..
Yasss. Been playing/knowing certain chords, from those piano synthesizer videos, without actually knowing the exact chord unless I thought of the practiced song in my head 😂. Thank you for this. Makes things much clearer 💕.
Note to Self: White chord triads are minors, black and white make majors/sharps, white uneven separations make majors with diff ways.
Best selection of lessons on chords on CZcams..... Thank you very much 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Omg i love your channel! I hope you wont stop making videos❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! Very easy to understand and straight to the point.
Thank you for the simple straightforward video, it was very easy to understand. Will be moving to your other chord videos.
This was an amazing tutorial and explained so simply. Well done
You're a great teacher, easy to understand. Thank you for doing this for us all!
My pleasure! 🙏
This is one of THE simplest piano lessons for beginners😇💜. U need to be recognized!
Finally found a tutor that explains well. Thank you very much. I've rang your bell so I would be updated.
Effing awesome!!! This is the basic basic basic information I needed. So many other videos teeach you how to play the chords but don't explain what you are doing.
I am a guitar player for about 10 years now. Never believed i could learn playing piano. Though i just wanted to learn to play basic chords, but CZcams tutorials never helped me untill i found this video today.
Thank you so much man. You saved my life today. Buying my melodica tomorrow. Love from Pakistan ❤️🙏
Liked & subscribed your channel 🙏
@@TipuMusic respect
THABJ YOU OMG everyone goes so fast and i cant tell what keys theyre even playing usually 😭😭
Thanks for a wonderful lesson on cords. I'm a beginner on piano and this is a wonderful music theory lesson!!!
BEST PIANO TEACHER IVE EVER RUN ACROSS, THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏🏼
Thank you for you good work and service, keep it up!
Thank you, you explained it very well. Love from Sweden
Really easy to understand! Cheers
4:35 it sounds like the part In the song La Vie on Rose where she says “hold” and then would carry on to say “me close and hold be fast”. I love it❤️
This is indeed the best beginner's lesson
I did not know that there were multiple ways of playing same chords, now it all makes a lot more sense.
My high-school piano lessons were not super helpful xD
Great video!
Thank you so much for this. You've explained so clearly. Thank you. I couldn't manage to access the playlist however.
Your explaination is very calm . Now i get to know little bit more about chords .Thanks
Thank you so much for this!!! I watched the whole playlist and I learned so much more than all those years back in school! It was extremely well explained and the 3-2 and 2-3 system is amazing and I really wish someone had told me about it years ago. Well done!!! And thank you so much!!
Really helpful thanks for this simple explanation i have been trying this from months thanks to you i started understanding it lots and lots of love and support from India ❤
