Building Blocks: Functional Harmony

Alright, it's time to get serious. We've talked about all the different things music is made of: Notes, scales, intervals, chords, and keys. Now it's time to put it all together to make really, usable harmony. How do we know which chords to use in which keys? How do notes notes cause chords to sound the way they do, and which intervals define the relationships between them? This is where things get real, and the best tool we have to answer those questions is a model called Functional Harmony. In this month's Building Blocks we look at how to fit chords together into a key, and how those chords help build a cohesive bed on top of which we build our songs. This one's important.
