3RD

MUSIC CHORD
TERMS DICTIONARY

3RD

A 3rd really refers to the 3rd note of a scale.  We will use a scale in the key of C to show this.

Scale in Key of C

A scale in the key of C shown above are the normal notes that one might expect in a song.  Instead of calling the notes C, D, E, etc.  or 1, 2, 3 , we also could think of the sequence as the singing notes: do, re, me fa, so, la ti do.

In this case, the "3rd" in the key of C is really the third note (note number 3) which is "E".
