They&#8217;re the 1-chord, 4-chord, and 5-chord.<\/p>\n<p>In the key of\u00a0 C major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;the primary triads are as follows:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>1-chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n4-chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,A,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n5-chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,G,B,D,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8230;and they&#8217;re the C major triad, F major triad, and G major triad respectively. So, keep in mind that there are three major triads and then the following numbers: 1, 4, and 5.<\/p>\n<h3>Major Seventh Chords In The Major Key<\/h3>\n<p>In the major key, there are two major seventh chords: the 1-chord and the 4-chord.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Pause For A Minute&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Now you&#8217;re probably wondering why there are three major triads and two major seventh chords.<\/p>\n<p>Well, the 5-chord is a special major chord type known as the dominant chord. So, although it&#8217;s a major chord, but it doesn&#8217;t have a major seventh like the 1-chord and the 4-chord.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Back To The Major Seventh Chords In The Key&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In the key of C major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;the major seventh chords in the key are as follows:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>C major seventh chord (which is the 1-chord):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,B,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nF major seventh chord (which is the 4-chord):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,A,C,E,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Again, keep in mind that there are only two major seventh chords in the major key and the numbers associated with them are 1 and 4.<\/p>\n<h2>The Power Of Major Triads In The Major Key<\/h2>\n<p>Every triad in the major key has up to three functions and functions as a link to two other keys.<\/p>\n<p>Until you understand and apply every single triad in the major key, taking advantage of all their functions, you may still belong to the league of musicians who under-utilize triads.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll show you other functions of the 1-chord and let you figure the functions of the 4-chord and 5-chord.<\/p>\n<p>Deal?<\/p>\n<h3>The 1-chord &#8212; <em>Explored<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>The C major triad:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;is the 1-chord in the key of C major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nHowever, it has three functions: the 1-chord function, the 4-chord function, and the 5-chord function. A closer look at all these functions will blow your mind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Attention:<\/strong> I&#8217;ll assume that you&#8217;re already familiar with the 1-chord function. So, we&#8217;ll go straight to the 4-chord function and the 5-chord function.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The 4-Chord Function Of The 1-chord&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The C major triad:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;is the 4-chord in the key of G major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=G,A,B,C,D,E,Fs,G,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nConsequently, you can borrow C major ideas from the key of G major and a classic example is playing the G major scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=G,A,B,C,D,E,Fs,G,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;from C to C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;to produce the C Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;which is a great scale option to improvise over the C major triad with.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not all. There&#8217;s also a 5-chord function of the 1-chord in the major key that I&#8217;m going to show you right away.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The 5-Chord Function Of The 1-chord&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The 1-chord in the key of\u00a0 C major (which is the C major triad):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;can function as a 5-chord (aka &#8211; &#8220;dominant chord&#8221;) in the key of F major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=F,G,A,Bb,C,D,E,F,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;and that&#8217;s why you can explore ideas from the key of F major over the C major triad.<\/p>\n<p>Playing the F major scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=F,G,A,Bb,C,D,E,F,,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;from C to C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;to produce the C Mixolydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,Bb,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;which has a <em>bluesy <\/em>sound that we all love.<\/p>\n<h2>The Power Of Major Seventh Chords<\/h2>\n<p>There are two ways to apply to every major seventh chord in the major key and once you figure these two ways out, you&#8217;ll have a fresh perspective to the 1-chord and 4-chord in the key.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Attention:<\/strong> Everything we&#8217;re covering in this segment will be in the key of\u00a0 C major.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll show you a fresh perspective to the 4-chord in the key of C major (which is the F major seventh chord), then I&#8217;ll let you explore the power of the 1-chord.<\/p>\n<h3>The 4-chord (The C Major Seventh)<\/h3>\n<p>The 4-chord in the key of C major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;is the F major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,A,C,E,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nIn the previous segment, we learned that there are two major seventh chords in the major key. Consequently, every major seventh chord in the major key can take up the function of these two major seventh chords either as the 1-chord or the 4-chord.<\/p>\n<p>Thinking in this direction gives us two applications of the major seventh chord in the major key:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The major seventh chord as the 1-chord<\/p>\n<p>The major seventh chord as the 4-chord<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The F major seventh chord is usually applied as the 4-chord in the key of C major. Therefore, we&#8217;ll be focusing on the application of the F major seventh chord as the 1-chord.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The F Major Seventh Chord As The 1-chord&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The F major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,A,C,E,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;is the 1-chord in the key of F major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,G,A,Bb,C,D,E,F,&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nDoes this link us up to the key of F major? Sure it does.<\/p>\n<p>Improvising with the F major scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,,F,G,A,Bb,C,D,E,F&amp;color=CC66CC&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;over the F major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img
