Our focus in this lesson is on the application of suspended chords.<\/p>\n

Suspended chords are used in a variety of popular music style; predominantly in rock music. If you’re a gospel musician, you’ll also need to learn how suspended chords are applied in contemporary christian music.<\/p>\n

Attention:<\/strong> This lesson is written with beginners in mind. Therefore, intermediate and advanced players might not benefit much from it.<\/p>\n

In case you’re just coming across the term “suspended chord” for the first time, I guarantee you that this lesson is specially dedicated to you and that’s why we’re starting out with the definition of suspended chords.<\/p>\n

“So, What Are Suspended Chords?”<\/em><\/h2>\n

A suspended chord is a product of the omission of the third tone of a major or minor chord. For example, when the C major triad:
\n
\n…or C minor triad:
\n
\n…is played without a third tone, this produces C-G:
\n
\n…a perfect fifth interval.<\/p>\n

“But That’s Not All…”<\/em><\/p>\n

The omitted third tone is replaced with the following options:<\/p>\n

The second tone<\/p>\n

The fourth tone<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…and the replacement of the third tone with these options produces two suspended chord types:<\/p>\n

The suspended 2nd chord (sus2 chord)<\/p>\n

The suspended 4th chord (sus4 chord)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Let’s take a closer look at these suspended chord types.<\/p>\n

Attention:<\/strong> To learn more about suspended chords and other chord types, I recommend that you get our 500+ page course: The “Official Guide To Piano Playing.” [thrive_2step id=’18141′]Click here to let us know.<\/span>[\/thrive_2step]<\/p>\n

The Suspended 2nd Chord<\/h3>\n

When the third tone of a major or minor triad is replaced with the second tone of the major or minor scale, this produces the suspended 2nd chord.<\/p>\n

“Take A Look…”<\/em><\/p>\n

Replacing the third tone of the C major triad:
\n
\n…which is E:
\n
\n…or the third tone of the C minor triad:
\n
\n…which is Eb:
\n
\n…with the second tone of the scale (which is D):
\n
\n…produces the C suspended 2nd chord:
\n
\nEvery other suspended 2nd chord can be formed in this manner.<\/p>\n

The Suspended 4th Chord<\/h3>\n

In the suspended 4th chord, the third tone of the major or minor triad is replaced with the fourth tone of the major and minor scale. In the case of the C major triad:
\n
\n…or C minor triad:
\n
\n…the third tone (which is either E or Eb) is replaced with the fourth tone of the C major or minor scale (which is F):
\n
\n…and this produces the C suspended fourth chord:
\n
\nFollowing the same procedure, every other suspended 2nd chord can be formed.<\/p>\n

Attention:<\/strong> Although there are suspended seventh chords and extended suspended chords, we’ll be focusing on suspended triads in this lesson because we’re covering the beginner’s application.<\/p>\n

The Application Of Suspended Chords<\/h2>\n

Suspended chords are neutral: they are neither major nor minor and this is because unlike other chord qualities, they don’t have a third tone.<\/p>\n

For the most part, the third tone of a chord is what determines its quality (whether it’s a major or minor chord).<\/p>\n

For example, the C major triad:
\n
\n…is a major chord because of the interval between its first and third tone (C-E):
\n
\n…is a major third interval. Consequently, it’s a major chord.<\/p>\n

The C minor triad:
\n
\n…is a minor chord because of the interval between its first and third tone (C-Eb):
\n
\n…is a minor third interval: consequently, it’s a minor chord.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“Back To The Suspended Chord…”<\/em><\/p>\n

Suspended chords are neutral because the third tone is omitted; therefore, it neither has a major quality nor a minor quality.<\/p>\n

So, a given suspended chord can be played over a variety of bass notes and we’ll be learning how they can be applied over bass notes to form scale tone chords.<\/p>\n

As The 1-Chord<\/h3>\n

The first tone of the C major scale is C:
\n
\n…and the C sus2 chord:
\n
\n…can be played as the right hand chord.<\/p>\n

Altogether, here’s the 1-chord:
\n
\n…using the C sus2 chord.<\/p>\n

As The 2-Chord<\/h3>\n

The root note of the second tone of the C major scale is D:
\n
\nThe C sus4 chord:
\n
\n…can be played as the right hand chord of the 2-chord.<\/p>\n

Altogether, here’s the 2-chord:
\n
\n…using the C sus4 chord.<\/p>\n

As The 3-Chord<\/h3>\n

The third tone of the C major scale is E:
\n
\n…and the C sus2 chord:
\n
\n…can be played as the right hand chord.<\/p>\n

Altogether, here’s the 3-chord:
\n
\n…using the C sus2 chord.<\/p>\n

As The 4-Chord<\/h3>\n

The root note of the fourth tone of the C major scale is F:
\n
\nThe C sus2 chord:
\n
\n…and the C sus4 chord:
\n
\n…can be played as the right hand chord of the 4-chord.<\/p>\n

Altogether, we have two options for the 4-chord:<\/p>\n

Option #1 (with the C sus2 chord):
\n
\nOption #2 (with the C sus4 chord):
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As you apply them, you’ll know the difference between both of them and where you can apply them in songs as well.<\/p>\n

As The 5-Chord<\/h3>\n

The root note for the fifth tone of the C major scale is G:
\n
\nThe C sus2 chord:
\n
\n…and the C sus4 chord:
\n
\n…can be played as the right hand chord of the 5-chord.<\/p>\n

Altogether, we have two options for the 5-chord:<\/p>\n

Option #1 (with the C sus2 chord):
\n
\nOption #2 (with the C sus4 chord):
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As The 6-Chord<\/h3>\n

The sixth tone of the C major scale is A:
\n
\n…and the C sus2 chord:
\n
\n…can be played as the right hand chord.<\/p>\n

Altogether, here’s the 6-chord:
\n
\n…using the C sus2 chord.

“Altogether, Here Are The Chords…”<\/em><\/h3>\n

As the 1-chord:
\n
\nAs the 2-chord:
\n
\nAs the 3-chord:
\n
\nAs the 4-chord:<\/p>\n

This:
\n
\n…or this:
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As the 5-chord:<\/p>\n

This:
\n
\n…or this:
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As the 6-chord:<\/p>\n

Final Words<\/h2>\n

Using the basic application of suspended chords covered in this lesson, you can apply suspended chords in all the bass notes in the key of C major.<\/p>\n

After you’ve mastered the examples given, feel free to transpose these suspended chords to other keys as well.<\/p>\n
