I work on an song,the song is the most easy one there is they say but i want to try it in an minor key Em
The original is in G (on my sheet) and have chords 1-4-5-6 in it G-C-D-Em .
So in Em I figure they must be Em-Am-Bm-C...('m I right)

ThE first 4 melody notes in G are D-D-D-(on the G chord) E (on the C chord) ...Q: how are the melody notes in Em going to look???

HELP..I have my thought but 'm not sure..

Generally a song in a major key would be transposed to another major key. Changing it to a minor key will completely alter the nature of the song and be a lot more complicated than a simple transposition, I think.

My stab ( who turned the lights out)

GGG on the Em and B on the A

I just transposed the melody notes the same way


Hold on OHH now why? hw to work a minor scale cos I aint got so many minor chords

Im working on the idea of

2-3 and 5-6 being half steps as in minor scale
E- F#-G-A- B-C-D-E
Carnt wait to find out full answer

Believe you are correct Willem!

1, 4, 5, 6 in E minor would be: Emin, Amin, Bmin, C.

I don't quite understand the other part of your question?


EDIT: Okay now I get it Willem... Okay the melody notes in E would be BBB C. I'm figuring this as it relates to the scale. I believe
that is correct. See if it works for you.
