Circle of Fifths
This interactive Circle of Fifths allows you to play all 12 major chords and all 12 minor chords in a convenient format. Each segment is a 5th interval from the previous segment. The outer ring contains the major chords, and the inner ring contains minor chords. Click or tap on any segment to hear the chord played aloud.
Arranging the chords in this circular layout makes it simple to play well known chord sequences. For example, try playing C, G, Am then F - these are the chords used in the classic Beatles song, Let it Be. Note how all these chords are very close together. Experiment with playing chords on the circle of fifths and let us know in the comments your favourite songs to play.
