Chord Nomenclature

Before getting into the matter, it is important that we clarify the concept of naming the chords, because we’re going to find so-called differently.

Sometimes we will find that a chord is represented as its name suggests, namely:

C Major: DOM
C Minor: Sun
D Major: REM
D Minor: Rem

And so on, but the most common today in the world of music is represented by an encryption find that assigns a letter to each chord, being as follows:
Do = C Re = D Mi = E Fa = F Sol = G La = A Si = B

Thus, Tab Do what we can find in these ways:

C major = DOM or C C Minor = Dom or CM or C-(the rare)

Then I designed a table with the encryption standard that is often used, which is what we will use throughout the course.
