Chords of the Minor Scale

Most often, this means understanding the relationship between the scale and the chords that belong to it. In this video, Andre will shows you how to build the proper triads and seventh chords so that you can improvise and compose in minor keys.

I have a question. Sometimes we play the major chord of the 5th note instead of minor in some songs which are in minor scale. For example Boulevard of Broken Dreams. It is in the key of Fm. And the 5 note in Fm scale is B flat. However in the song B flat major chord is used not minor. Can you please clarify why does it sound good that way also? Thanks for the video.

Hey, so I have been thinking about this: In a major chord progression, you got it like this: 1st chord=ionian (Maj7) 2nd chord= dorian (minor7)(3rd=phrygian minor7) but here is the thing now the fourth chord is lydian which sounds best with a Maj7#11 chord, and after that you got your dominant chord, which sounds with mixolydian.

Short said. I find your video a bit too much for the beginner as I was hoping to find more information than just: Min Dim Maj Min min Maj Maj Min.

I think I am going to look at the scale for each chord, and make the ''real'' chords.

Love to hear what you think

Why dimishied chord come in minor scale ? It's based on intervals or its extracted from 6th degree from major scale
