Fourth factor (F), in red, of a C suspended fourth chord, C sus4 (play ⓘ).. The fourth degree is octave equivalent to the eleventh. The dominant eleventh chord could be alternatively notated as the very unorthodox ninth added fourth chord (C 9add4), from where omitting the 3rd produces the more common ninth suspended fourth chord (C 9sus4, also known as the jazz sus chord).
In mathematical analysis, the universal chord theorem states that if a function f is continuous on [a,b] and satisfies () = ...
The terms quartal and quintal imply a contrast, either compositional or perceptual, with traditional harmonic constructions based on thirds: listeners familiar with music of the common practice period are guided by tonalities constructed with familiar elements: the chords that make up major and minor scales, all in turn built from major and minor thirds.
