Playing Chords along with Chord Progressions of a Song

Song numbers 125 to 154 in the “Chord Progression” category are constructed from typi-

cal chord progressions. You can listen to and get a feel for the chord progressions by

playing back the Song and playing the keyboard while looking at the notes shown on the

display. The number of keys that are indicated for you to play progress in sequence—

from a single root note, to two notes, then three and four—getting you to gradually and

naturally memorize the chords. Also, you can change the key of the Song, allowing you to

practice the progressions in all keys for full mastery of the chords.

Select a Song from Song numbers 125 to

154 in the “Chord Progression” category

by executing Step 1 in “Selecting and

Playing Back a Song” on page 27.

Press the [PHRASE REPEAT] button.

After “CHORD PROGRESSION” scrolls across the

display, the tonic pitch of the selected Song and

the number of the keys to be pressed are shown.

Press the [+]/[-] buttons to select the num-

ber of the keys to be played.

Each time the [+] button is pressed, the number

of the keys to press is increased from just one

root note (1Note) to two notes (2Notes), three

notes (3Notes) and four notes (All).

Press the [START/STOP] button to play

back the selected Song.

Play the keyboard looking at the notes

shown on the display.

Press the [PHRASE REPEAT] button

again to turn the Chord Progression

function off.

To change the key of a Song:

When Chord Progression is on, press one of the

keys in the top octave (C5–B5; indicated to the right

of “ROOT” on the panel, just above the keys) to

change the tonic pitch of the Song.

For example, if you press the key D5 in the Song

of C major, the key changes to D major.

You can practice the playing the chords in combina-

tion with “Waiting” (page 36) of the Lesson function

by simply pressing the [1 LISTENING 2 TIMING

3 WAITING] button once.

• The initial key setting is C major or A minor.

• The number of the keys to press can also be set by using

the number buttons [1]–[4].

• When you play the keyboard within the range of C5–B5,

the notes will not sound.
