In this series, I will try to consolidate my own learning by writing articles on:

• The basic12 note scale, and where to find them on the piano and guitar fretboard
• The C major scale – the starting point of my learning and understanding
• Applying the C major scale learning to the remaining notes to derive A major, B major, D major etc
• Defining the C major chord and relating it to the C major scale.
• Applying the major chord definition to the major scales we derived earlier to illustrate how the basic open chords of the guitar reflect the rule
• Constructing minor chords
• Constructing other chords, and the names of them
• More theory, as taught to me by Marty Schwartz

That’s quite ambitious, it may take a while.  Encourage me by writing to me, providing feedback, posting comments.
