The 1-chord is the most important chord in the key for a variety of reasons.<\/p>\n

But in this lesson, I’m going to show you the top 4 reasons why the 1-chord is the most important chord in the key.<\/p>\n

I don’t want to assume that everyone reading this lesson already know what the 1-chord is. Therefore, before we go any further, permit me to do a quick review on the 1-chord in the major key.<\/p>\n

A Short Note On The 1-chord In The Major Key<\/h2>\n

There are seven unique tones in the major key. In the key of C major:
\n
\n…there are seven unique tones and they are as follows:<\/p>\n

C D E F G A and B<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Each of these tones are associated with numbers; starting from C which is associated as the 1:<\/p>\n

C is associated with 1<\/p>\n

D is associated with 2<\/p>\n

E is associated with 3<\/p>\n

…etc<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…and so are the chords derived from each of the tones.<\/p>\n

So, the 1-chord is the chord of the first tone of the C major scale (which is C):
\n
\n…and that’s the C major triad:
\n
\nNow, if someone asks you what the 1-chord in the key is, you can say:<\/p>\n

In the number system (where chords are associated with numbers), the 1-chord is the chord of the first tone of the scale.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The 1-chord is considered by music scholars as the most important chord in the key and there are so many reasons why this is so.<\/p>\n

However, I picked out four reasons (that I’ll be sharing with you in the next segment) and I know that you’ll learn a couple of things and above all, appreciate the 1-chord.<\/p>\n

“Why Is The 1-chord Is The Most Important Chord In The Key?”<\/em><\/h2>\n

I know you really want to know why the 1-chord is the most important chord in the major key. Well, one of the most common reasons you can easily read up is this:<\/p>\n

The 1-chord is the most important chord in the key because it is the chord of the first tone in the key.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…and that’s not one of the four reasons I want to share with you.<\/p>\n

I’ll start with the first reason, which focuses on the stability of the 1-chord in the key.<\/p>\n

Reason #1 — “The 1-Chord Is The Most Stable Chord In The Key”<\/em><\/h3>\n

In the major key, the 1-chord is the most stable chord and its sound reinforces the key you’re in and also resonates the feeling of being at home.<\/em><\/p>\n

There are seven unique chords in the key with their individual functions and when played, each of them give us their unique feeling.<\/p>\n

If you play all the chords in the key in a succession starting from the first chord in the key, by the time you get to the first chord (aka – “the 1-chord”), you’ll see the completeness that comes with the 1-chord that no other chord in the key has.<\/p>\n

Reason #2 — “The 1-chord Contains All The Stable Tones In The Key”<\/em><\/h3>\n

All the tones in the major key are divided into stable and active tones. The stable tones in a key are the first, third, and fifth tones in the key.<\/p>\n

In the key of C major:
\n
\n…the first, third, and fifth tones are C, E, and G:
\n
\n…and these are identical with the tones of the 1-chord in the key — the C major triad.<\/p>\n

So, all the tones of the 1-chord are stable tones and no other chord in the key can beat this. Although there are chords can have on or two stable tones in the key, only the 1-chord has all the stable tones.<\/p>\n

Reason #3 — “Most Melodies Start From The Tones Of The 1-chord”<\/em><\/h3>\n

Most melodies to songs that we sing on daily basis start off with the tones of the 1-chord.<\/p>\n

The 1-chord consists of the first, third, and fifth tones of the major scale and these are the tones that most melodies start from.<\/p>\n

How any melody and try to play it in the key of C major:<\/p>\n

…and I guarantee you that the first note would most likely be any of the tones of the 1-chord in the key (the C major triad):<\/p>\n

The melody you just hummed is most likely to start from any of these three notes:<\/p>\n

C:
\n
\nE:
\n
\nG:
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If I guessed right, just be sure that this is no magic! That’s the power of the 1-chord in the major key.<\/p>\n

Reason #4 — “Songs Usually Start And End On The 1-chord”<\/em><\/h3>\n

The first and last chord you’re most likely to play in songs across a lot of genres in classical and popular music is the 1-chord.<\/p>\n

Almost all the hymns, congregational songs, praise songs, worship songs, etc., start and end on the 1-chord in the key and this is because it is the most important chord in the key.<\/p>\n

While trying to learn a new song, you can always assign the first and last chord to the 1-chord and 95-99% of the time, you’ll be correct.<\/p>\n

Final Words<\/h2>\n

The importance of the 1-chord in the major key can not be over-emphasized.<\/p>\n

After the 1-chord, the next chord in terms of importance is the 5-chord (which is technically known as the dominant chord) and that’s going to be our focus in the next lesson.<\/p>\n

See you then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
