If you’re an intermediate player interested in learning a handful of 2-5-1 chord progressions you’re on the right page.<\/p>\n

The 2-5-1 chord progression has the strongest push and pull between the chords it’s made up of and that’s why a lot of songs have 2-5-1 chord progressions; especially at the end or in-between two sections.<\/p>\n

Apart from the main 2-5-1 chord progression in the key, there are other 2-5-1 chord progressions that can be played to other tones of the major scale: to the 2nd tone, the 3rd tone, the 4th tone, etc.<\/p>\n

But before we cover all the other 2-5-1 chord progressions, let’s get started with an overview of the 2-5-1 chord progression.<\/p>\n

An Overview Of The 2-5-1 Chord Progression<\/h2>\n

A chord progression consists of the movement of chords and is usually in a given key — from one scale tone chord to another.<\/p>\n

There are seven unique scale tone chords in the major key and a chord progression can progress from one of the chords to the other.<\/p>\n

“As Regards The 2-5-1 Chord Progression…”<\/em><\/h3>\n

The 2-5-1 chord progression is a chord movement between the following chords:<\/p>\n

The 2-chord<\/p>\n

The 5-chord<\/p>\n

The 1-chord<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the key of C major:
\n
\n…the playing the following chords (in a succession):<\/p>\n

The D minor seventh chord:
\n
\nThe G dominant seventh chord:
\n
\nThe C major seventh chord:
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…produces the 2-5-1 chord progression.<\/p>\n

The Power Of The 2-5-1 Chord Progression<\/h3>\n

The 2-5-1 chord progression is the strongest chord progression in tonal music and this is because it is based on fourth and fifth movement of chords.<\/p>\n

From the 2nd tone of the scale (which is D):
\n
\n…to the 5th tone of the scale (which is G):
\n<\/p>\n

…is either a downward movement by a fifth (to the lower G):
\n
\n…or an upward movement by a fourth (to a higher G):
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Progressions based on fourth and fifth intervals are the strongest in tonal music and this explains why they’re found at the end of a vast majority of songs.<\/p>\n

In the key of C major:
\n
\n…chances are very high that the last three chords in a vast majority of songs would be the 2-chord:
\n
\n…followed by the 5-chord:
\n
\n…then the 1-chord:
\n<\/p>\n

Essential 2-5-1 Chord Progressions In The Major Key<\/h2>\n

Let’s go ahead and explore other 2-5-1 chord progressions in the major key.<\/p>\n

Attention:<\/strong> We’ll come across two types of 2-5-1 chord progressions: the major 2-5-1 chord progression and the minor 2-5-1 chord progression.<\/p>\n

The chord progressions we’re about to explore resolves to other chords in the key: the 2-chord, 3-chord, 4-chord, and more and the chords they’re made up of are passing chords that you can rely on to take you to these other scale tone chords in the key.<\/p>\n

Minor 2-5-1 Chord Progression To The 2-chord<\/h3>\n

The 2-chord in the key of C major:
\n
\n…is the D minor ninth chord:
\n
\n“Check Out The 2-5-1 Chord Progression To The 2-chord…”<\/em><\/p>\n

The 2-chord (the E half-diminished seventh chord):
\n
\nThe 5-chord (the A altered chord):
\n
\nThe 1-chord (the D minor ninth chord):
\n<\/p>\n

Minor 2-5-1 Chord Progression To The 3-chord<\/h3>\n

The 3-chord in the key of C major:
\n
\n…is the E minor seventh chord:
\n
\n“Check Out The 2-5-1 Chord Progression To The 3-chord…”<\/em><\/p>\n

The 2-chord (the F# half-diminished seventh chord):
\n
\nThe 5-chord (the B dominant seventh [flat ninth] chord):
\n
\nThe 1-chord (the E minor seventh chord):
\n<\/p>\n

Major 2-5-1 Chord Progression To The 4-chord<\/h3>\n

The 4-chord in the key of C major:

The 2-chord (the B half-diminished seventh chord):
\n
\nThe 5-chord (the E dominant seventh [flat ninth] chord):
\n
\nThe 1-chord (the A minor ninth chord):
\n<\/p>\n

Final Words<\/h2>\n

The 2-chord and 5-chord for each of the 2-5-1 chord progressions we covered in the last segment of this lesson can also be used as passing chords.<\/p>\n

Recommendation:<\/strong> Kindly learn, master, and transpose the major and minor 2-5-1 chord progression we covered to other keys.<\/p>\n

All the best and see you in the next lesson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
