Learn to read music · How to read chords: triads, inversions and sevenths
Chord worksheet
Name each triad: its root (the note it is named after), major or minor, and root position, first inversion or second inversion. 16 chords, all from the guide; the answers print on a second page. Sheet 7.
Then play it. A drill of the same chords: play each one on a MIDI keyboard or the keys on screen as soon as you read it, and every answer is timed and goes on your reading map.
