Lots of people can play a handful of chords, and that's enough to play lots and lots of fine music. But oddly enough, most can not begin to explain what a chord is. Chords aren't for everybody, virtually none of the instruments in an orchestra or marching band use them. But a good understanding of chord structure - where they come from, and why they're called what they're called - is useful stuff for everyone. The included diagrams and explanations make it easy to understand how similar all the instruments are and how they all relate to the keyboard - and the quiz at the end will ensure you've learned the info.
