Major thirds are thirds that are specifically four semitones (half steps) apart. For example, the interval between C and E is a major third because they’re two letters apart, and it takes four semitones to get from C to E: C ♯ (a.k.a. D♭) → D → D ♯ (a.k.a. E♭) → E. Here’s what a major third sounds like:
The chord chart below lists the common triad and four note extended chords belonging to the key of E Flat / D Sharp natural minor. Roman numerals indicate each chord's position relative to the scale.
The Roman numeral system helps you know what chords to play, regardless of what key you are in. Uppercase numeral ( I ) = major chord Lowercase numeral ( i ) = minor chord Superscript circle ( vii° ) = diminished chord Remember: The key of the scale is the I / i chord. This six-week course will show you how to craft compelling chord progressions in your music. We'll analyze the chords used in music from across the contemporary landscape, and equip you to use them in your own productions and compositions. You'll be challenged to write your own mood-setting music by creating tracks for topliners, TV ads, film

An interrupted cadence or deceptive cadence ends on an unexpected chord – the music literally does sound like it has been “interrupted”. The most common chord progression you will come across is from chord V to chord VI (V-VI). So, in this example of an interrupted cadence in C major below, the last 2 chords are V (G) and VI (A minor).

2. Number each note, or ‘degree’ of the scale from 1 to 15, giving us a way of naming chords that can be built from these notes. Build a dominant C7 chord by playing a C major triad consisting of 1 (C), 3 (E), 5 (G) and adding a flattened 7 (Bb). Turn this into a C9 chord by adding the ninth degree of the extended major scale, D.
Each chord is also called a triad and consists of the root note, the 3rd above and the 5th above (in the scale). If we use this idea for every note of the scale, we get all 7 chords in the key of E major. Here are the chords in E major: I – E major- E, G#, B ; ii – F# minor- F#, A, C#; iii – G# minor, G#, B, D#; IV – A major- A, C#, E
This is a six-chord progression that consists of two repetitions of the three-chord progression from Example 1. It might be suitable for a song that has a more energetic or upbeat feel, or for a song that has a more dramatic or epic quality. Example 4: Chord.
