Book says 'You can achieve this by incorporating secondary triads. These are all the minor chords in the key - Dm, Em, and Am.'

I haven't come across this in the book so far, what does 'm' mean?

I think it means minor, it would make sense, just want to make sure, I can't read the book any further until I'm sure...

Thanks for any help...

m is for minor, M is for Major.

basically they start with the c major key, then show the intervals of c major, then show 'three chord' progressions in c major, then it leads to this bit, does that seem early in the book, their are only 300ish pages, seems a very good read, I'm going to couple it with a DVD on playing keybords, then when I think I'm not getting any more from the book/dvd will start getting lessons, just want to absorb as much as possible before then - crash coursing it, if possible
