How to Write Down and Recognize Augmented & Diminished Chords

Do you like augmented chords? Do you like diminished chords? If so, then you may be able to use major and minor chords to help you find your way to other simple chords and chord patterns.  Also, use the chords symbols to help with determining the names of chords.  For instance, if the letter name of a chord appears alone as a capital letter that means it's a major chord.  If that same letter appears in lower case, that means that it is a minor chord.  If you happen to see what appears to be a 'plus' sign or a lower case 'o', that means the chord is either augmented or diminished.  I'll clarify this in this episode.  Sometimes you'll see 'aug' and 'dim' instead of + and o.  That's next time on The CMajor Radio Show.  See you then!
