The bebop major scale is derived from the Ionian mode (major scale) and has a chromatic passing note added (a ♯ 5) between the 5th and 6th degrees of the major scale. . Adding the ♯ 5 note to the seven-note major scale allows the chord tones 1, 3, 5 and 6 (a major 6th chord) to land on on-beats when the scale is played sequen
Note that except for the 9–8 suspensions, the numbers are typically referred to using the simple intervals, so for instance, if the intervals are actually an 11th and a 10th (the first example below), one would typically call it a 4–3 suspension. If the bass note is suspended, then the interval is calculated between the bass and the part ...
Passing chord in B ♭ from across the circle of fifths (tritone, see also tritone substitution): B ♮ 7 Play ⓘ. [1] The circle of fifths drawn within the chromatic circle as a star dodecagon. [2] In music, a passing chord is a chord that connects, or passes between, the notes of two diatonic chords. [3] "
The diatonic scale notes (above) and the non-scale chromatic notes (below) [13] Medieval theorists defined scales in terms of the Greek tetrachords. The gamut was the series of pitches from which all the Medieval "scales" (or modes, strictly) notionally derive, and it may be thought of as constructed in a certain way from diatonic tetrachords.
The following example is in C major. The lowest part is a "lament bass" that descends from the tonic to the dominant using chromatic passing tones before returning at the end up to the tonic in a perfect cadence. The upper voice moves in the opposite direction from the dominant note up to the tonic.
The list is full of examples of this art style and movement that were created by artists from all around the world. So, check them out; maybe it will convince you to become a surrealism enthusiast ...
Chromatic fourth: lament bass bassline in Dm (D–C ♯ –C(♮)–B–B ♭ –A) The diatonic scale notes (above) and the non-scale chromatic notes (below) [1] Chromaticism is a compositional technique interspersing the primary diatonic pitches and chords with other pitches of the chromatic scale. In simple terms, within each octave ...
For example, in major-key harmony the 4th, and thus the 11th, is an avoid note and is therefore either treated as a passing tone or is augmented (raised a semitone). [4] Avoid notes are often a minor second (or a minor ninth) above a chord tone [ 5 ] or a perfect fourth above the root of the chord.
