1st Position Minor Triads on the Mandolin's Lower Strings

Video Transcript

O.k so we're going to start to combine the inversions again and work with chords that are in close proximity to each other o.k? So there's going to be three note chords again, triads using minor chords this time. And so for the first position here we're going to use this root position C minor o.k? Now the third is a whole step up, a whole step is the root of your four chord. So this one's stacked one, five, five, three. Up a whole step is the root of your C minor chord o.k? And in this lowest position I'm just going to move up a whole step to play a D minor chord. The three chords are G, C and D. But minor this time. G minor, C minor and because I can't go low here I'm going to go up to D minor, and back to G minor, o.k? So let's try a little waltz together. One, two, three. One more time.
