That's the trend I've noticed so far. Like B minor for example, I start with the B minor key. I take 2 whole steps to a D major, then a step and a half to an F major.

I'm not sure what you mean. A B minor chord is B,D,F#, but those individual notes aren't "D Major" and "F# Major".

Is Piano your first instrument.
I'm curious because you are using the terms, minor and major keys...rather then notes. Also, yes, just off the top of my head the pattern in Whole step, whole step, and a Step and a half. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan.

B minor should be B minor, D, and F, though, shouldn't it? SiO4 posted... Is Piano your first instrumentMost efficient answer is yes. --- Being a Chad is a choice. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Learn the major chords first and the notes in them
then you just tweak each note (lower 3rd, or low 3rd and 5th, add a 9th, etc) might not really be the best way to learn but it helped me and with piano it lets you learn the major fingering then adjust one or two fingers *i am no piano expert and likely learned wrong ... Copied to Clipboard!

At best it could mean diminished. TC: Just learn scales and take it from there. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan. Currently playing: Flight Simulator X.~PC ... Copied to Clipboard!

So the best way to think of it isn't "All basic piano chords are 2 whole steps followed by 1.5 steps".
The fact that it's 2 whole steps followed by 1.5 steps is what makes it an e.g. B major chord as opposed to a different type of B chord. But if you take those three notes (B,D#,F#) and rearrange them, you're still playing a B major chord, it's just in a different inversion. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

To all the people saying I need to learn scales first, I already know you're correct, and I have been watching a 71-video youtube series of a University professor teaching music theory. Taking notes as well. So far he's taught me about the circle of fifths and whatnot. Great stuff.
Right now I'm just kind of fooling around for funsies, tho. --- Being a Chad is a choice. ... Copied to Clipboard!

No, for sure...I see what he's doing. Not even being a hater.But I was correct that say, a B flat starts with the B flat note, and that all the basic chords begin this way? How does this work for C flat and E sharp? Is there any accuracy in calling a D an E flat flat, as far as music theory goes? Would a B# chord be the same as a C chord, or are they only treated the same when they are individual notes? --- Being a Chad is a choice. ... Copied to Clipboard!

They'd sound the same but have a different name because that's just how these things work. But I will say that if you ever see a B# major chord I recommend you immediately burn your sheet music --- THIS IS WHAT I HATE A BOUT EVREY WEBSITE!!

I am not sure what he's on about. The B Major Chord, is B, D#, F#. I'm not sure what he's talking about with the double sharps. A B minor chord is B, D, F#, which reflects its relative major, The scale of D. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan.

I guess it depends on what you mean by "basic", but...
A major triad is a major third with a minor third on top. A minor triad is a minor third with a major third on top. Buuuuuuut... A half diminished is a minor third with a minor third on top. An augmented is a major third with a major third on top. A major 7 is a major third with a minor third on top, with a major third on top. A sus4 is a perfect 4th with a major 2nd on top. kirbymuncher posted... Well, a C major chord would be C-E-G and a B# Major Chord would be B#, D double sharp, F double sharp. They'd sound the same but have a different name because that's just how these things work. But I will say that if you ever see a B# major chord I recommend you immediately burn your sheet musicIt may sound pedantic, but it's definitely not trivial when you look into certain keys or modes. For example, in the key of C major, if you see an F#, we're borrowing from Lydian, which is a brighter sound, but if you see a Gb, we're borrowing from Locrian, which is a way darker sound. I could see a B# major chord happening if we were, for example, in the key of F# major and we borrow from Lydian. Of course, that's a pretty specific case you're not going to see often. Or another example without even using modal mixture might be the VII chord in C# Harmonic Minor. Of course, to your point, if the composer wrote the piece in C# Harmonic Minor, yes, it probably needs to be destroyed. --- 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 ...
