Les B How are keys determined ? (15) RE: How are keys determined ? 16 Feb 07


OK, I generally understand that the minor scale indicates the key, and that there are major and minor scales. I just didn't know how to explain to him that there is no such key as A 7.

On a slightly differnt tack, what is the term for those tunes or the beginning of tunes (like this one did)that start on an off chord, usually the seventh. I see this in quite a few rags.

Another friend of mine calls these "phantom chord starts" but there must be a more proper name for this ?
