For example, Cm7 is the ii7 of B♭ major, the iii7 of A♭ major, and the vi7 of E♭ major. In addition, a natural minor scale produces a minor 7th chord as a 1-chord, a 4-chord and a 5-chord.

Cyclical chord progressions are predictable chord progressions where the root of a chord moves in a certain interval. In music, the strongest movement between chords is in fifths and fourths.
