Hearing and Experiencing the Sound of
the Chords (Chord Study)
You can hear and experience the sound of the chords used in a typical performance by
playing back Song numbers 101 to 112 (in the "Chord Study" category). Song numbers
101 to 107 are very simple songs consisting of a single chord (C, Dm, Em, F, G, Am, Bm;
respectively) played in various positions, letting you listen to and master the chords
one by one. On the other hand, Song numbers 108 to 112 consist of several chords
strung together in a pattern, for experiencing and understanding basic chord progres-
sions. Hear and experience the sound of simple chords and progressions by playing
back these Songs, and play the keyboard while following along with the music notation
and key/chord indications shown in the display.
