OP Artur Gajewski Full Member A Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 405 Helsinki, Finland	If I play a certain chord, how do I know which notes I can play that sound nice with that chord or to provide improvised melody for the chord? I usually tend to play the same notes that are within the triad, but in a long run it gets boring. When I try some sharps/flats I sometimes find a nice sounding note, but most of the time they don't fit at all. Is there some kind of formula for this? - Artur Gajewski Working on: Beethoven - Fur Elise Chopin - Waltz in A minor
