![]() Notice that the work begins with a single left hand note (G), and then the melody starts (on F# in the right hand) with the rest of the maj7th chord (played in the left hand).The Key of D♭ Major (D-flat) is comprised of seven of twelve possible notes in an octave. You will need to listen to the track to hear how these notes fall with the chords. These are the first two bars of "Gynmopedie", and are played as the left hand plays the chords. Once you have mastered this, in the right hand play the notes F#, up to A, then going down to G, F#, and C#. ![]() To create a sound close to the original, play the chords in the left hand, so that you play the root note, followed by the rest of the chord e.g., G, then B - D - F# (played together). These are the chords that the music follows for the first 12 bars. If you want to re-create the feel of this work, play Gmaj7 (G - B - D - F#), followed by Dmaj7 (D - F# - A - C#). One of the most famous pieces of music to use the major seventh chord is " Gymnopedie No.1" (by Eric Satie). So in summary, a major seventh chord is a major chord with an extra note, one down from the root. So now you have the notes A - C# - E - G#. To finish with, move this G# up one octave. Next, go down just one semitone from the root note (the root note is the same as the name of the chord). ![]() In this example, we have A major, which is A - C# - E.
