Please, I would like to ask this question that has been torturing me for a while here. What does this means for example: Eb major 2 or Eb 2? Each time i see it i\u2019d pause for awhile. I know recently u taught about sus2 &#038; sus4 which I really understood very well. But, honestly speaking I don\u2019t know what Eb major 2 or Eb2 means. Please, can u explain?

It&#8217;s really that simple.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s another voicing you&#8217;ll hear the pros use:<\/p>\n<p><img src='https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=D,E,G,C&#038;color=&#038;size=2' border=0 \/><\/p>\n<p>Note: You can play the D and E with your thumb. Just place it right in the middle and kill 2 birds with one stone.<\/p>\n<h2>Major 2 Chords vs &#8220;Add 9&#8221; Chords<\/h2>\n<p>I&#8217;ll tell you why you don&#8217;t see the &#8220;2&#8221; in chords notations that much&#8230; because it&#8217;s often looked at as the &#8220;9.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In music, there are so many ways to look at things&#8230; and depending on whether you&#8217;re being super technical or lackadaisical, you can say the same thing several ways.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if I said C major add 9, you might think:<\/p>\n<p><img src='https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=C,E,G,D&#038;color=&#038;size=2' border=0 \/><\/p>\n<p>(And this would be more correct because, while the 9 is the same as the 2nd tone of the scale, it&#8217;s more reserved for notes in the NEXT octave. That means: C is 1, D is 2, E is 3, F is 4, G is 5, A is 6, B is 7, C is 8, <strong>D is 9.<\/strong> Notice how we kept counting above 8 when we got to the next octave &#8212; and when you play <a href=\"https:\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox\/141e8f273f72a2%3A14dcc288eb46dc\/5650082896543744\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">extended chords<\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox-714.js\"><\/script> like ninths, elevenths, thirteenths, you&#8217;re usually using tones from the NEXT octave.)<\/p>\n<p>But that doesn&#8217;t stop people from also looking at C major add 9 as this:<\/p>\n<p><img src='https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=C,D,E,G&#038;color=&#038;size=2' border=0 \/><\/p>\n<p>(Which is the same chord we explained above as our C major 2).<\/p>\n<p>So truth be told, major 2 chords and major &#8220;add 9&#8221; chords are often times looked at as the same thing but now you truly know the difference. Another way to see them is as inversions of each other since you have the freedom to order your notes any way you want.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Major 2 Chords vs Sus 2 Chords<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Recall, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hearandplay.com\/main\/suspended-chords\">in this lesson<\/a>, we talked about sus2 chords.<\/p>\n<p>Sus 2 chords use the 2nd tone of the scale in place of the 3rd tone.<\/p>\n<p>So whereas a C major chord is normally C + E + G &#8212; which is the 1 + 3 + 5 of the C major scale played all together &#8212; the <a href=\"https:\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox\/141e8f273f72a2%3A14dcc288eb46dc\/5650082896543744\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Csus2 chord<\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox-714.js\"><\/script> is C + D + G, which removes the &#8220;E&#8221; (3rd degree) altogether.<\/p>\n<p>With major2 chords, you aren&#8217;t suspended anything so it&#8217;s simply C + D + E + G). It&#8217;s an &#8220;add on&#8221; rather than a replacement.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this has unraveled the mysteries of major 2 chords for you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hearandplay.com\/gk202pianopic.jpg\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-1313\">Since I skipped a week of <em>Ask Jermaine,<\/em> I&#8217;m back with another one &#8212; this time, regarding major 2 chords.
