So, how do we learn by association:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>If you have a known thing and an unknown thing, you can learn the unknown using the know if there&#8217;s a link between them.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In this lesson, we&#8217;ll be learning how to associate the minor and dominant seventh chords with the major seventh chord that I assume that you&#8217;re already conversant with.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not safe to assume that everyone is conversant with the major seventh chord. Therefore, we&#8217;ll start out in this lesson with quick insights on the major seventh chord.<\/p>\n<h2>Quick Insights On The Major Seventh Chord<\/h2>\n<p>The major seventh chord is the 1-chord in the major key and that makes it easy to form or recognize. Using the major scale in any key, you can form the major scale by playing the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th tones of the major scale.<\/p>\n<p>Using the D major scale (as a reference):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,Cs,D,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;anyone can form the major seventh chord by the combination of the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th tones of the D major scale (which are D, F#, A, and C#):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,D,Fs,A,Cs,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nFollowing the same procedures, the major seventh chord can be formed on any note on the keyboard.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Here Are All The Major Seventh Chords On The Keyboard&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>C major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,B,,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nDb major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Db,F,Ab,C,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nD major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,D,Fs,A,Cs,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nEb major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Eb,G,Bb,D,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nE major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,E,Gs,B,Ds,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nF major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,A,C,E,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nGb major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Gb,Bb,Db,F,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nG major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,G,B,D,Fs,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nAb major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Ab,C,Eb,G,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nA major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,A,Cs,E,Gs,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nBb major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Bb,D,F,A,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nB major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,B,Ds,Fs,As,&amp;color=33CC66&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nMinor and dominant seventh chords can be learned using the major seventh chord as a link and I&#8217;ll be showing you (step-by-step) how this works in the next segment.<\/p>\n<h2>How To Learn Minor And Dominant Seventh Chords<\/h2>\n<p>Learning minor and dominant chords using major seventh chords as a reference will be a walk over for you if you understand the difference between the major seventh chord and the minor and dominant seventh chord.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be showing you everything in this segment and all I need now is your undivided attention.<\/p>\n<h3>How To Learn Dominant Seventh Chords By Association<\/h3>\n<p>What is the difference between the major seventh and the dominant seventh chord?
