Medford, Oregon - April 12, 2006
It is quite possible to accurately predict with 75% to 85% accuracy that chord comes next in a song, and a new course from www.PlayPiano.com reveals how it is done. The reason that it is possible is because music has FORM -- like the skeleton that holds your flesh, muscles, and skin up. If you had no bones -- no skeleton -- your flesh and all the other parts of you would fall in a heap on the floor. Not a pretty picture. But because you DO have a skeleton, you are able to walk around and pretty accurately predict which way your next step will take you. It\'s the same in music. Music has FORM -- a skeleton to hold it up, hold it together. And that skeleton is made out of chords -- harmony -- the tonal center of the song or piece. In any given key you can play in, there are PRIMARY CHORDS -- chords that occur way more than other chords. They are like family members of that particular key. At your house, let\'s say you have 3 people in your family -- your spouse, your child, and you. On the same block, but down the street a few houses, lives your cousin and her family. At any given moment, who are the most likely people to be in your house? Hillary? John McCain? Barry Bonds? I don\'t think so. It\'s possible, of course, but not too likely. If I had to guess, I would say it would be either you, your spouse, or your child. It might be your cousin down the street -- there\'s a much better chance of that than, say, Steve Martin -- but my best odds would be to guess that the family members would be there. It\'s the same way with chords. In any given key, there are 3 \"family members\" that are residents of that key -- the I chord, the IV chord, and the V chord. They are far and away the most likely chords to occur in any given key.
To cover this subject thoroughly, Keyboard Workshop has announced the release of a new DVD & CD course titled \"How To Predict Which Chord Comes Next In a Song\" which reveals how any musician can accurately predict chord progressions once he or she understands the \"family of chords\" and how they relate to one another.
