Hello All,
I've recently been getting more into scales and theory and such and found a ukulele related website that lists scale patterns (single note), along with corresponding "chord scales". The chord scales are the pattern of the scale in chords. My question is, why are all the chord scales listed with minor and diminished etc., if the note wasn't sharp or flat to begin with? I feel like my lack of theory knowledge is letting me down here.
For example:
The C major scale is: C D E F G A B
The C major "chord scale" is:
C major D minor E minor F major G major A minor B diminished
Why wouldn't the chords just be all major in this example?
Does anyone understand the theory behind this? Thank you in advance.
