How do you form a major chord on piano? A major chord is perhaps the simplest chord. It consists of three notes, the root, 3rd and 5th. Its symbol is “Maj”. For instance C major can be written “C Maj”.

A minor chord is formed by playing the root, flat 3rd and 5th of the scale. Its symbol is mi, -, or m. For instance, A minor can be written as Ami, A-, or Am. Am seems to be more common.
