Using the examples below:

• determine the standard methods for labeling all chord qualities
  • match these to our current labels (e.g. Major minor (Mm) chords are the same as a dominant seventh chord which is then labeled as…)
• determine the method for denoting inversions
  • match these inversions to their corresponding inversion figures for both triads and seventh chords
• figure out the difference between using sub and add in your leadsheet notation
