Lydian chords may function as subdominants or substitutes for the tonic in major keys. [3] The compound interval of the augmented eleventh (enharmonically equivalent to ♯ 4, the characteristic interval of the Lydian mode) is used since the simple fourth usually only appears in suspended chords (which replace the third with a natural fourth, for example C sus4).
IV-V-I-vi chord progression in C major: 4: Major I–V–vi–IV: I–V–vi–IV chord progression in C: 4: Major I–IV– ♭ VII–IV: I–IV– ♭ VII–IV. 3: Mix. ii–V–I progression: ii–V–I: 3: Major ii–V–I with tritone substitution (♭ II7 instead of V7) ii– ♭ II –I: 3: Major ii-V-I with ♭ III + as dominant ...
This progression has a pitch axis of E. The chords from Joe Satriani's "Not of This Earth" Play ⓘ. Satriani chooses [citation needed] E Lydian, E Aeolian, E Lydian, and E Mixolydian as the modes to use for each chord. The First chord, EΔ13, contains the 1st, 2nd, 6th, and 7th degrees of the E major scale.
A Lydian chord (C Δ ♯ 11) contains the notes: root (often omitted), 3, 5, M7, (9), ♯ 11 (13). The Lydian chord has a strange quirk, where if the root is put both above and below the augmented eleventh it creates an unpleasant dissonance of a tritone. This is not usually a problem in a jazz context, as chord-playing musicians often omit the ...

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" symbol. Often the "No Chord" symbol is used to enable a solo singer or ...
The performer should interpret this such that each chord symbol occupies one beat, with each slash signifying that the preceding chord should be played for additional beats, represented by the number of additional slashes after the chord symbol. For example, the first measure (bar) of this chord chart consists of three beats of the G-Major chord.
For example, the previously mentioned chord progression, in the key of E ♭ major, would be written as E ♭ major–B ♭ major–C minor–A ♭ major in a fake book or lead sheet. In the first chord, E ♭ major, the "E ♭ " indicates that the chord is built on the root note "E ♭ " and the word "major" indicates that a major chord is ...
