32.99This is how the original chord map now fits

Remember that huge Circle-of-Fifths/chord map that started all of this?

At the beginning it looked like:

a giant collection of chords and arrows to memorize.

Now you should see it differently.

It represents recurring relationships:

  • V→I
  • relative major/minor
  • secondary dominants
  • diminished approaches
  • circle motion
  • chromatic alternatives

The chart is no longer the knowledge.

The relationships are the knowledge.
