Harmonium major chords, or any chord for that matter, are formed by combining two or more notes. Now,

when you from S major chord, it is recommended you form them using the 2nd,1st and 5th fingers of your right hand. Your thumb is the first finger index finger is the 2nd and pinky is the 5th finger. A chord is a combination of three (or more) notes played at the same time. All major chords are formed by playing simultaneously three notes, according to definite rules. In keyboards chords are played mostly with left hand. Since we are learning harmonium so, your left hand will be busy in pumping bellows. In this situation we will play chord and melody with the right hand only. As we have already defined in our previous lessons that any key can become a Sa or our starting note; but in our lessons we have assumed the first black key to be the Sa (S), for convenience and simplicity. Please see diagram above. There are a number of chords in western music but In harmonium lessons we will only use only major and minor chords. A major chord is formed when we simultaneously play three notes S-G-P or you will play numbers numbers 1-5-8. we will name this chord as SV. Harmonium chords are also called desi chords. Harmonium komal and tiver notes with their numbers are given below as shown in the above diagram.

Now to play the major chord S-G-P e.g.. we will play key numbers 1-5-8. This major chord is called S major. We will use the symbol 'V' for a major chord. Now the S major chord will be written as SV and as on. Similarly, the major chord "rV" will be formed as: r-m-d and can be shown by numbers 2-6-9.
