The I, IV, V chords? Those cover every note in the scale.

How do you define "the standard chords" for a key?  The obvious thing that
occurs to me would be the seven triads that can be made with the scale
degrees (three major, three minor, and one diminished); but the dominant
seventh chord is not on that list and is probably more commonly-used than
the diminished triad.

[Rosegarden-user] Canon like midis?

2020-11-24 Thread krsgrdn


hello gang,

I'm setting out to make some training videos
and need midi files of 'otherwise survivable'
songs of a particular nature: ones that use
all of but only the standard chords for the
key in question. I would then transpose a few
of these into every key offering a visual 
tracking scroll of the chords and arpeggios 
as the video rolls along. People learning 
either rhythm or jamming lead would find this
useful (begining with myself!). Drums, a good
bass, clear chords and some lead or arpeggiated
chord tracks would be useful.

Slow rock/ballad is probably best because it 
can be tempoed up or down. So far I have found 
Pachelbel's Canon in D ...

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QTCdA9Waj0
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38J8eQB0Pzw

... it uses all but two of the chords which I could 
probably sneak into it here and there for the 
learning exprerience.

If you know of any other similar songs, especially
with midi links, I'd appreciate very much.

TIA
