Today’s music lesson is on learning how to read music with triads and it also contains some great tips for people who want to learn how to sight read music.
A triad is a three-note chord that can be stacked in thirds. The pieces of the chords, from lowest to highest on a staff) are called the Root, the Third (whose interval is a major third or minor third above the root) and the Fifth (whose interval is a major or minor third above the third, and a diminished, perfect, or augmented fifth above the root).
Triads (or any other tertian chords) are built by stacking every other note. For example, A-C-E is a triad and it skips B and D. While the interval from each note to the one above it is a third, the quality of those thirds varies depending on the quality of the triad… More to come on this later.
