In this lesson, you’ll be learning other exceptional chords for the first tone of the scale.<\/p>\n

The chord of the first tone of the scale is also known as the tonic chord and is fundamental to any key that you’re in because a vast majority of songs start and\/or end in chord 1.<\/p>\n

That’s why we’re focusing on the tonic chord in this lesson. Let’s refresh our minds on the tonic chord before we get into learning these exceptional chords.<\/p>\n

A Short Note On The Tonic Chord<\/h2>\n

There are eight tones in every key (be it a major or a minor key.)<\/p>\n

These tones are described by music scholars using technical names as follows:<\/p>\n

Tonic<\/strong> for the first tone<\/p>\n

Supertonic<\/strong> for the second tone<\/p>\n

Mediant<\/strong> for the third tone<\/p>\n

Subdominant<\/strong> for the fourth tone<\/p>\n

Dominant<\/strong> for the fifth tone<\/p>\n

Submediant<\/strong> for the sixth tone<\/p>\n

Subtonic<\/strong> for the seventh tone<\/p>\n

Octave <\/strong>for the eighth tone<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The technical name of the first tone is the tonic. Consequently, the chord of the first tone is described as the tonic chord.<\/p>\n

The tonic chord in any key is the most important chord because its root is the most important tone in the key. For example, in the key of C major:
\n
\n…where the tonic is C:
\n
\nWhat other tone could possibly be more important than C:
\n
\n…in the key of C:
\n
\nAdditionally, it’s common for a lot of songs to start and end on the tonic chord. Take for instance, the National Anthem of a lot of nations of the world — The US, Nigeria, South Africa, and so on, all start and end on the tonic chord.<\/p>\n

It’s due to this importance of the tonic chord that we’ll be dedicating the rest of this lesson to learning exceptional chords for the first tone of the scale.<\/p>\n

Exceptional Chords For The First Tone Of The Scale<\/h2>\n

Let’s go ahead and cover some exceptional chords that can be played on the first tone (aka – “tonic chords”) and also highlight the qualities that distinguish them from regular tonic chords.<\/p>\n

The Major Sixth Chord<\/h3>\n

The major sixth chord is a non-tertian<\/em> chord.<\/p>\n

The term non-tertian <\/em>is used to describe chords that are not built absolutely on third intervals, versus tertian <\/em>chords that are built on third intervals between successive tones.<\/p>\n

The major sixth chord can be formed when the first, third, fifth, and sixth tones of the major scale are played or heard together. Using the C major scale:
\n
\n…the C major sixth chord can be formed when the first (C), third (E), fifth (G), and sixth (A) tones:
\n
\n…are played or heard together.<\/p>\n

The C major sixth chord:
\n
\n…(just like every other major sixth chord) is non-tertian <\/em>because the distance between its fifth and sixth tones (which are G and A in this case):
\n
\n…is a second interval.<\/p>\n

So, the exotic sound of the major sixth chord comes from the second interval between the fifth and sixth tone.<\/p>\n

The major sixth chord sounds a lot better in its first and second inversion for a variety of reasons that time will fail us to highlight. So, it’s recommended for you anyone to play the C major sixth chord (in first inversion):
\n
\n…or the C major sixth chord (in second inversion):
\n<\/p>\n

The Major 6\/9 Chord<\/h3>\n

The major 6\/9 chord (a non-tertian chord) is basically a major sixth chord with a chord extension<\/a> — the ninth.<\/p>\n

In the key of C major:
\n
\n…where a ninth tone from the first tone (C):
\n
\n…is D:
\n
\nThe ninth\u00a0 (which is D):
\n
\n…can be added to the regular C major sixth chord:
\n
\n…to produces the C 6\/9 chord:
\n
\n6\/9 chords sound exotic not only because they are non-tertian, but because of the fourth interval (aka – “quartal harmony”) between its sixth (A) and ninth (D) tones:
\n
\nAlso, the 6\/9 chord can be formed in C using 7sus4 quartal triads:<\/p>\n

E 7sus4 triad<\/p>\n

A 7sus4 triad<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The E 7sus4 triad over C:
\n
\n…and the A 7sus4 triad over C:
\n
\n…are all voicings of the C 6\/9 chord:
\n<\/p>\n

The Augmented Major Seventh Chord<\/h3>\n

Finally, we have a tertian chord on the list – the augmented major seventh chord.<\/p>\n

Raising the fifth tone of any major seventh chord produces the augmented major seventh chord. For example, raising the fifth tone of the G major seventh chord:
\n
\n…which is D:
\n
\n…by a half-step (to D#):
\n
\n…produces the G augmented major seventh chord:
\n
\nThe exotic sound of the augmented major seventh chord is derived from its raised fifth tone (aka – “augmented fifth”)<\/p>\n

Final Words<\/h2>\n

Due to the fact that most songs start and\/or end on chord 1, you can always apply the chords learned in this lesson.<\/p>\n

“Check Out The Chords You Just Learned In The Gospel Song Thank You, LORD<\/strong>…”<\/em><\/p>\n

Attention:<\/strong> The organ or organ voice is recommended.<\/p>\n

Thank (the C augmented major seventh chord):
\n
\n…you (C 6\/9 chord):
\n
\n…Lord (C major sixth):
\n
\nIsn’t that lovely?<\/p>\n

See you in the next lesson!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
