How Music works

A chord is three or four notes played together. The Chord Finder draws each one on a piano and on a ukulele or guitar, says its notes out loud, and plays it. Major chords sound happy, minor chords sound sad or spooky, and a seven chord sounds like it wants to go home.

A key is the home a song lives in. Children’s voices are higher than grown-ups’, and many songbooks print songs too low for them. On every song sheet, Fits a small voice finds the key that keeps the tune where a young singer can reach it, and Easiest shapes finds the key with the fewest fingers on your instrument.

The songs are all in the public domain: nursery rhymes and folk songs printed long ago, or old tunes with Peabody’s own words. Every sheet says where its words and tune come from. Nothing you tap leaves this device. For grown-ups.
