Parallel harmony forces the chords to be understood less with functional roots, and more as coloristic expansions of the melodic line. [12] Overall, this prelude, as a representative of the 24 preludes, shows Debussy's radical compositional process when viewed in light of the previous 200 years of classical and romantic music.
The Clubhousers are enjoying a day at the beach when a pirate named Peg Leg Pete delivers a note from Goofy's long lost Grandpappy, Captain Goof-Beard, asking for Goofy's and the gang's help in ensuring that Harmony-Chord Island, the musical isle where Goof-Beard lives, doesn't go completely out of tune and sink.
Therefore, the combination of notes with their specific intervals—a chord—creates harmony. [22] For example, in a C chord, there are three notes: C, E, and G. The note C is the root. The notes E and G provide harmony, and in a G7 (G dominant 7th) chord, the root G with each subsequent note (in this case B, D and F) provide the harmony. [22]
Quintal harmony (the harmonic layering of fifths specifically) is a lesser-used term, and since the fifth is the inversion or complement of the fourth, it is usually considered indistinct from quartal harmony. Because of this relationship, any quartal chord can be rewritten as a quintal chord by changing the order of its pitches.

However, Aeolian harmony may be used with mode mixture. For example, ♭ VII is a major chord built on the seventh scale degree, indicated by capital Roman numerals for seven. There are common subsets including i– ♭ VII– ♭ VI, i–iv–v and blues minor pentatonic derived chord sequences such as I– ♭ III–IV, I–IV, ♭ VII (The ...
Barbershop harmony is a style of unaccompanied vocal music characterized by consonant four-part chords for every melody note in a predominantly homophonic texture. Each of the four parts has its own role: the lead sings the melody, with the tenor harmonizing above the melody, the bass singing the lowest harmonizing notes, and the baritone completing the chord.
The tritone substitution, an harmonic device common in jazz chord progressions where a dominant V chord is substituted with a bII7 chord (or a secondary dominant II7 chord with a bVI7 chord, etc.), whose common justification is the enharmonicity of the tritones of both chords (G7 has a B-F tritone whereas D♭7 has an enharmonic Cb-F tritone ...
