About the event
There is a chord associated with each of the seven notes of a major scale. When played in context, each chord evokes a certain emotional response from the listener. Learning these chordal relationships will open your ears to the chord progressions to millions of songs. This is the first step to learning to play by ear and could change the way you listen to and play music.
Open to all Levels. Knowledge of finger positions for C, Dm, Em, F, G, Am, helpful.
The cost is $30 for the two hour workshop "How Songs Work," playable in cash at the door.
