A major triad has a major third (M3) on the bottom, a minor third (m3) on top, and a perfect fifth (P5) between the outer notes. In harmonic analysis and on lead sheets, a C major chord can be notated as C, CM, CΔ, or Cmaj. A major triad is represented by the integer notation {0, 4, 7}.
Major and minor forms: For asymmetrical hours (hours that are formed from two different interval classes), the minor form is the inversion of the triad with the smallest ic on the bottom, while the major form is the inversion with the largest ic on the bottom. So, XIm is equivalent to a standard minor triad (3-4), while XIM is equivalent to a ...
The letters S.P.I.T. is an acronym for scale, pattern, inversion, and triad and usually pertains to the first four chord types which include major 7, dominant 7, minor 7, and half-diminished expressed in all twelve key signatures. The use of S.P.I.T. methodology involves matching the scale, pattern, inversion, and triad to the key signature of ...
An interval is inverted by raising or lowering either of the notes by one or more octaves so that the higher note becomes the lower note and vice versa. For example, the inversion of an interval consisting of a C with an E above it (the third measure below) is an E with a C above it – to work this out, the C may be moved up, the E may be lowered, or both may be moved.
Euler's Tonnetz. The Tonnetz originally appeared in Leonhard Euler's 1739 Tentamen novae theoriae musicae ex certissismis harmoniae principiis dilucide expositae.Euler's Tonnetz, pictured at left, shows the triadic relationships of the perfect fifth and the major third: at the top of the image is the note F, and to the left underneath is C (a perfect fifth above F), and to the right is A (a ...

In music, triads are primarily built on the circle of thirds. In fact, by going progressively forward in sequence of the circle of thirds, many chords can be constructed. For example, in A major, the first notes in the cycle of thirds are A, C♯, and E, which is also the three notes present in the A major triad. [2]
For instance, in example one above (C 7 ♯ 9) the triad of E ♭ major is a (compound) minor 3rd away from C (root of the bottom chord). Thus, this upper structure can be called upper structure flat three , or US ♭ III for short.
