When three or more notes are played at the same time, it is called a chord. That is the
basis of a harmony. Each note of a chord determines which chord it is.
In music, the basic chords are mostly triads. The chord is determined by the notes it
contains. The lowest note is the root. This is followed by the third and the fifth.
The root denotes the chord (e.g. C major) and is the most important tone. The name
of the chord (e.g. minor or major) depends on the interval of each note above the
root.
If it is a perfect fifth and the chord has a minor third, it is called a minor chord. If it is a
major third, it is called a major chord.
