How do you know which chord you could use next? We share our very own major chord progression chart that will help get you started in figuring out which chord comes next. Musicians often wonder which is the best way to progress from one chord to another. Of course there are many options but there are certainly progressions that don-t work too well. In this music composition lesson you will see an ingenious plan that tables how best to progress from one chord to another. If I-m using a particular chord how do I know which chords are going to follow on best? There are certain logical steps that encourage good chord progression and they have been summarised in this music composition lesson. This chord progression video will introduce you to a chart that shows how chords progress in the most satisfactory way. When you see it you-ll wonder how you lived without it. to the major chord progression chart 1:37 - Exploring the chord chart 4:54 - Using the chord chart

Sir: Will you please inform if I heard correctly; We start from III to to vi go to IV from IV then go to ii from ii either V or vii (first inversion) back to -good old I.- Is this correct; the two can be interchanged with the four chord ; the vii can be changed for V; can V be replaced by the iii? Thank you much, you are reat

Thank you. This is a Excellent lesson. Looking forward for the minor progression. And can u kindly explain the difference between the application of melodic and harmonic minor in a song.
Whether the Melodic and Harmonic usage is either concept? or together? please make a video of it.

reply

Very clear explanation - thank you a lot! On some websites I saw that the chord IV could be followed V and that the chord V could be followed by chord VI . So can I ask you why you didn't put the corresponding arrows on your chart? Are there some specific rules for that?
reply

In chord function theorem, iii is the weaker of the three tonic chords, and vi is the weakest, so to progress and create expectation, you move from strong to weak to weaker etc. Then iv and ii both are subdominant, they lead to dominants (v and vii)

Thank you very much for these videos. I arrange quite a number contemporary pieces, especially Asian songs. The knowledge I got from this video has sped up all of my current works. Less guessing and getting the notes by ear. More theory :)

Look at the weeknd song -save your tears-
Progression is I VI III V
Just as one example of breaking -the rule-
In fact the composer of the song thought in a progression of chords that share 2 notes in common to the next chord

Hi Gareth. I can see how this would really help someone starting out on chord sequences or progressions. I know it would have helped me a great deal in the distant past. Always very informative. Thanks a lot.
reply

See... What keeps going through my mind is... Why are these rules true? It feels strange to just blindly accept that this chord works well with this one without any rational logic behind it?
reply

Very useful, thanks. I'm a jazz player, so I don't always follow the rules, but I do try to understand them. It would have been interesting if you you could say WHY a root movement -works-.
