KIRK'S COLUMN

The I-IV-V chords and the melodies within.

Here is yet another "I-IV-V chords" lesson. I keep using these chords because they are such a strong structure of Western music. You can tell a complete musical story very quickly using these chords -- the I sets the scene, the tonality, the IV confirms it, the V gets your ear ready to go home again, back to the I.

This lesson, hopefully, will demonstrate the strength of thinking "chords" rather then "scales" when looking for melodic lines.
