CHORD   Music Keyboard Chord Finder                  by Will Dallimore 1991

For all you budding keyboard players who have mastered the right-hand, this
program is what your left-hand has been waiting for. Most tutorial books
show basic left-hand chord positions, this program expands on these giving
a total of 156 of the most widely used chords. The program shows one
inversion of each chord, by re-arranging the marked notes within the chord
on your keyboard further inversions are possible. For instance if a C major
chord consists of the three notes C E G, then by re-arranging them to E G C
or G C E you are still playing a C major chord. By trying out the various
inversions you will find the shape that is the easiest for you to play.
Some of the more complex chords have been limited to a maximum of four notes
per chord, this is for clarity, and will not be detrimental to the sound of
of the chord.

The program starts with the C major chord, by using the left and right
arrow-keys it is possible to cycle through the chords from C major to C13,
and through the keys from C to B by using the up and down arrow-keys.
