C Major Chord Inversions






This short video shows the base chord and the two inversions for C major. The base chord is simple, key that the chord is in is the lowest chord, which is C. The first inversion takes the lowest key and shoots up an octave. The same thing happens for the second inversion. The reason why there is no third inversion is because taking the last key that wasn't put up one octave would make the base chord, just up one octave. Each provides a unique pitch for the key of C.
