Open-Voiced Triads

(p. 24)  Identify each triad and its quality from the fingerboard pattern. When checking answers, minor, diminished, and augmented qualities, are indicated by lead sheet symbols: m, 0, +. Major are indicated with no symbol, just the triad’s letter name.

TIP: Play and listen to the quality of each.   If necessary, write out the notes on manuscript paper to analyze.
