Abstract
A music composition method and apparatus is provided and consists of a plurality of small playing cubes each having a color-coded musical chord with a number to indicate the position of the chord within the matching color-coded musical key of a separate, larger cube indicated on each side thereof. A color-coded device is provided to guide the placement of playing cubes into sequences of chord progressions thereon after the playing cubes are cast upon a flat surface. A player can form multiple chord progressions from the chords on the top sides of the cast playing cubes and play the cast sequence of chords on their instrument thereby learning the relationship between the chords belonging to a musical key.
Claims3
A musical composition apparatus comprising:
- (a) a first playing cube, said first playing cube having a musical key and an associated color associated with the musical key indicated on the sides thereof and
- (b) a plurality of second playing cubes, each of said second playing cubes having the related chords of a uniformly color coded musical key and a numerical position of the chord within said key indicated on the sides thereof and corresponding to one key and the corresponding color of said key labeled on one side of the first playing cube, and
- (c) a rhythm apparatus, said rhythm apparatus having a color-coded arrangement for placing the first playing cube and the second playing cubes thereon in order to facilitate a random and pre-arranged exploitation of the possible sequences of chord progressions within a musical key.
