That's because we usually only focus on the 5 chord types we learnt (major, minor, augmented, diminished and sus), and : Note that there is no chord like c-f♭-g (that is in fact a C major chord) or c-eb-g# (that is an A♭/C chord) despite the fact that those are triads, since they are made out of thirds stacked one on the other. The other way (spell black keys with sharps) is absolutely right too. I chose to spell the black keys with flats. (major, minor, augmented, diminished, sus) Here is the recap of every single triad we could build (+ sus chords) out of the 5 kinds of chords we studied. When a triad (or a sus4 chord) is not in root position (that is to say : the bass note is not the root), you write the root in capital letter, add the suffix, write slash / and then the bass note.Īn E♭ major chord in first inversion is notated E♭ /GĪ D minor chord in first inversion is notated Dm /FĪn A augmented chord in second inversion is notated A + /E♯Īn E diminished chord in second inversion is notated E° /B♭ An A♯ sus4 chord in root position is notated A♯ sus4. įor example, a sus4 chord of B♭ in root position is notated B sus4.
A G♭ diminished triad in root position is notated G♭°.Ī sus4 chord in root position is notated with the root in capital letter and the letters sus4. A B augmented triad in root position is notated B +.Ī diminished triad in root position is notated with the root in capital letter and the "°" sign.įor example, a diminished triad of F in root position is notated F°. The suffix for minor chords is " m"Īn augmented triad in root position is simply notated with the root in capital letter and the "+" sign.įor example, an augmented triad of E♭ in root position is notated E♭ +. An A♭ major triad in root position is notated A♭m. A F♯ major triad in root position is notated F♯.Ī minor triad in root position is simply notated with the root in capital letter and the lower case letter "m".įor example, a minor triad of D in root position is just notated Dm. It's really simple : the name depends on the root, the quality (major, minor, augmented, diminished or suspended), and the inversion.Įach quality correspond to a different suffix.Ī major triad in root position is simply notated with one capital letter : the root.įor example, a major triad of C in root position is just notated C. įor now, we'll focus on pop/jazz chord notation. You won't use the same tool to analyse a Bach chorale, analyse a pop song, or notate a jazz standard. (we don't want write "D major chord in first inversion" on a score, do we ?)Īs usual, notation depends on context. Now that we know all those chords, we want to be able to give them a short name.
