By thinking of this blues progression in Roman numerals, a backup band or rhythm section could be instructed by a bandleader to play the chord progression in any key. For example, if the bandleader asked the band to play this chord progression in the key of B ♭ major, the chords would be B ♭-B ♭-B ♭-B ♭, E ♭-E ♭-B ♭-B ♭, F-E ...
In the key of B ♭, the numbers would be B ♭ =1, C=2, D=3, E ♭ =4, F=5, G=6, A=7. The key may be specified at the top of the written chord chart or given orally by the bandleader, record producer, or lead singer. The numbers do not change when transposing the composition into another key. They are relative to the new Tonic.
A typical sequence of a jazz or rock song in the key of C major might indicate a chord progression such as C – Am – Dm – G 7. This chord progression instructs the performer to play, in sequence, a C major triad, an A minor chord, a D minor chord, and a G dominant seventh chord.
For example, the chord C 6 contains the notes C–E–G–A. The minor sixth chord (min 6 or m 6, e.g., Cm 6) is a minor triad, still with a major 6. For example, the chord Cm 6 contains the notes C–E ♭ –G–A. The augmented sixth chord usually appears in chord notation as its enharmonic equivalent, the seventh chord.

For example, in the key of C, the standard jazz ii–V–I progression is Dm ...
