The use of chords labeled G 7alt can create challenges in jazz ensembles where more than one chordal instrument are playing chords (e.g., a large band with an electric guitar, piano, vibes, and/or a Hammond organ), because the guitarist might interpret a G 7alt chord as containing a ♭ 9 and ♯ 11, whereas the organ player may interpret the ...
The chord is favored by Pixies lead guitarist Joey Santiago, with D 7 ♯ 9, reminiscent of the opening to "A Hard Day's Night", opening and being called the "secret ingredient" of the song "Here Comes Your Man". A "brutally scraped" F 7 ♯ 9 features in the chorus of "Tame" against the three chord rhythm guitar part's D, C, and F chords. [27]

The predecessor of today's six-string classical guitar was the five-string baroque guitar tuned as the five high strings of a six-string guitar with the A raised one octave. High C – E-A-d-g-c' Standard tuning with the B tuned a half step higher to C to emulate a six-string bass guitar, minus the low B. This is an all fourths tuning.
The chord notation N.C. indicates the musician should play no chord. The duration of this symbol follows the same rules as a regular chord symbol. This is used by composers and songwriters to indicate that the chord-playing musicians (guitar, keyboard, etc.) and the bass player should stop accompanying for the length covered by the "No Chord ...
A tritone substitution is the substitution of one dominant seventh chord (possibly altered or extended) with another that is three whole steps (a tritone) from the original chord. In other words, tritone substitution involves replacing V 7 with ♭ II 7 [ 7 ] (which could also be called ♭ V 7 /V, subV 7 , [ 7 ] or V 7 / ♭ V [ 7 ] ).
In diatonic harmony, the half-diminished seventh chord occurs naturally on the seventh scale degree of any major scale (for example, B ø 7 in C major) and is thus a leading-tone seventh chord in the major mode. [3] Similarly, the chord also occurs on the second degree of any natural minor scale (e.g., D ø 7 in C minor). It has been described ...
Diminished major seventh chords are very dissonant, containing the dissonant intervals of the tritone and the major seventh.They are frequently encountered, especially in jazz, as a diminished seventh chord with an appoggiatura [citation needed], especially when the melody has the leading note of the given chord: the ability to resolve this dissonance smoothly to a diatonic triad with the same ...
