If you think about learning how to read music fluently like learning how to read the English language fluently…there are patterns to memorize and steps to follow in order to get to the point that you can ACTUALLY read fluently.
And one of those important patterns and steps to master is CHORDS.
Chords are kind of like common sight words. They are ALL OVER THE PLACE.
And instead of trying to sound out every sight word every time you see it, at a certain point, you have to start recognizing them faster if you want to be able to read fluently and with any sort of speed.
When you can look at, recognize, and play chords quickly, you become more fluent and way faster at not only reading music, but playing with more accuracy and flow.
In today’s tutorial, I teach you 2 things that you can do to learn every chords, QUICKLY.
If you were to follow these 2 steps in the video starting today…by the end of this year you’d be a lot faster at reading music and recognizing chords quickly.

Thank you Ashlee, you are an excellent teacher!
Thanks for taking the time to say that, I appreciate it!
This video answered 95% of my questions. Thanks.
Yay!
This is awesome (as usual). What I love about your content it that you always nailed a different approach to problems in such an easy way. That speaks volumes about your own learning process and experience. Thank you for sharing it
Thanks so much for that amazing compliment! That’s exactly what I try to do here :)
You are the best Ashley!
Thanks!!! 🙏
Thanks for helping a complete duffer (but an enthusiastic duffer) understand chords in a simple way.
I’m looking forward to learning more from your channel.
You are very welcome! I’m glad you found it!
I need to memorize the specific notes for each major minor triad chords. Thanks.
Great video. Today I just learned that is more than 1 type of 7th chord! 😁 Don't know what I have been doing the last 2 years.
I have a video coming out this Saturday on how to memorize the 5 types of 7th chords! Keep your eyes peeled!
Brilliant! Great way to memorize the patterns. And LOVE that idea of 1 chord a week. Perfect to begin this first week of the year. Thank You! : )
I’m glad you love the idea! And that’s a FANTASTIC idea to start it this week! You’re very welcome!
Thank you sooo much.Greetzzz from holland❤❤❤❤🎉
You’re welcome! Hello!!
Thank you
You’re welcome!
Thanks
You’re welcome!
Good!
🙌🏻
I sort of need you to come to England and teach me music. You have what it takes. Just listening to you makes so much sense. Thank you for being you.
This is one of my favorite comments I’ve ever received - thank you for the kind words! I do have an online program you know! So I Wouldn’t have to come to England! ;) you are welcome and thanks for being here!
I think this is my favorite comment that I’ve ever received here. Thank you very much for the kind words. You know I have an online program, so I wouldn’t even have to come all the way to England :-) thanks for being here!
I didn't learn chords by name, but I learned them only by patterns. I'm learning the chord names now !
❤
🙌🏻
Yeah I've learned that method than memorising all chords, because I'm so weak on memorization
I don't think you said it but it seems for regular major and minor chords the 3rd note is a 5th or 7 half steps from the root.
I wish you would consider a clip on mic so your voice does not get lost in the bright room ambience. Also it would keep your voice volume much more constant.
Thanks for the content.
You’re welcome!
Can you recommend me any books that contains a lot of chord changing exercise / progressions?
If you’re just starting out I’d recommend this one for relating the chords back to the keys: amzn.to/3t5NJSf
Am so much interested in sight reading technic. I would like to master this, but I don't know how and what should be done.
Hey there! I give you three simple steps to master sight reading here!

Billy Joel is an absolute master of chords & arpeggiating!!! For just some examples check out "She's Always a Woman to me" & "She's got a way"!!! I can honestly( pun intended 😂) go on & on about Billy Joel who is my favorite piano player!!! This was a great reminder about the fundamentals of chording!!! # Keep Inspiring Ashlee 🌟👏🙏👍🤘
Agreed!
Agreed! But check out Dave Brubeck too...
Now I have heard of a 3rd person who likes his music.
You want to torture someone? Play Piano Man. It got stuck in my head one time and then I realized why people sometimes consider suicide.
@@jvh136 Speaking as a musician with over 50 years of experience, the album ‘The Stranger’ by Billy Joel is one of the finest collections of songs you’ll ever hear.
I've seen this before in an older piano book. This is probably a common method of building chords from the root.
It is and definitely the “fastest” way to do it
Do you have this in written form or a chart? Great info.
No but that’s a genius idea!
Thanks for helping a complete duffer (but an enthusiastic duffer) understand chords in a simple way.
I’m looking forward to learning more from your channel.
The formulas Summary
C Major = Base Note + 4 + 3
Cm Minor = Base Note + 3 + 4
Cdim Diminished = Base Note + 3 + 3
Csus2 Sus2 = Base Note + 2 + 5
Csus4 Sus4 = Base Note + 5 + 2
C7 Dominant Seventh = Base Note + 4 + 3 + 3 (same as major chord + 3)
C7maj Major Seventh = Base Note + 4 + 3 + 4 (same as major chord + 4)
C7min Minor Seventh = Base Note + 3 + 4 + 3 (same as minor chord + 3)
Fully diminished 7th = diminished chord + 3
Half diminished 7th = diminished chord + 4
Augmented = Base +4 + 4
@@SmileyBlue69 you are a gem!! Thank you for doing this! I’ll post the slides from the video in the fb group also!
I can post the slides with the formulas in the fb group - are you a member?
One thing that I find very helpful is to learn the shape of a particular chord on the keyboard. So, if I want to play a C major triad in first inversion, I just play that shape. It's still important to learn the music theory, and to understand *why* that shape is a C major triad in first inversion. But when I'm playing, it's too complicated to work through the formal theory in real time, and it's much faster to just know the shape and play it. Of course, there are a lot of chords, and thus there are a lot of shapes to learn! This is a process that takes a long time, and I still haven't fully mastered it. But when I know the shape of a chord, then this is the fastest approach.
Also, First!
Shapes also help with the jumps. If you know the shape of the chord you’re jumping to, you only have to aim your thumb and the rest of your fingers are aligned.
Also there are a lot of chord types, but for major and minor triads there are less shapes than chords.
C F G - same
A D E - same
Ab Db Eb - same
Bb B F# - each unique
Totally agree! The shapes are really important
Shapes! Really makes sense.
@@user-uf2ox2mh1m good I’m glad!
My advice learn the number system and ear train
👍🏻
Why do all these piano posters say "quickly" or "fast" ? This is standard chord construction and it still requires putting in the time even if it's separate from knowing key your in.
Well, it’s much faster than spending years learning in depth music theory :) but yes, of course it still takes time. Although the more you do it the faster you’ll get.
Leon Russel intro to Rita. Where the F that tutorial at. Nobody’s got it!
Hmm
Here's MY system, Ashlee: Major chords sound happy. Minor chords sound sad. Diminished chords sound scary. Augmented chords sound like a mildly disturbing dream. All the more complicated chords can be put off till tomorrow, or perhaps next week. 🍺🎹
Hahahaha!! I love this. Thanks for sharing!
In point! excellent audio musical analysis❤
Yes, this is great to get students to listen and classify the sounds. Super
Sus chords?
Not in this video
@@AshleeYoungMusicStudio it was still an excellent video though. Many thanks (sorry if my comment appeared unfavourable!) many thanks and kind regards.
@@Howeverwhatabout oh no worries! I’m glad!!
