  2. Nike Ardilla - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nike_Ardilla

    When Nike was 13 years old—influenced by Aretha Franklin, Marianne Faithfull, Connie Francis, Lesley Gore, Marilyn Monroe and Agnetha Fältskog of ABBA—she released her debut album, Seberkas Sinar in 1989, which she managed to complete in one day. [9] It reached number one in the charts, and sold over 1 million copies within a year.

  3. Ptolemy's table of chords - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemy's_table_of_chords

    When the arc reaches 60°, the chord length is exactly equal to the number of degrees in the arc, i.e. chord 60° = 60. For arcs of more than 60°, the chord is less than the arc, until an arc of 180° is reached, when the chord is only 120. The fractional parts of chord lengths were expressed in sexagesimal (base 60) numerals. For example ...

  4. Minor chord - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minor_chord

    A unique particularity of the minor chord is that this is the only chord of three notes in which the three notes have one harmonic – hearable and with a not too high row – in common (more or less exactly, depending on the tuning system used). This harmonic, common to the three notes, is situated 2 octaves above the high note of the chord.

  5. Chord (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_(geometry)

    Equal chords are subtended by equal angles from the center of the circle. A chord that passes through the center of a circle is called a diameter and is the longest chord of that specific circle. If the line extensions (secant lines) of chords AB and CD intersect at a point P, then their lengths satisfy AP·PB = CP·PD (power of a point theorem).

  6. Tritone substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tritone_substitution

    In standard jazz harmony, tritone substitution works because the two chords share two pitches that themselves are a tritone apart: namely, the third and the seventh of the chord, albeit reversed. [8] In a G 7 chord, the third is B and the seventh is F; in its tritone substitution, D ♭ 7, the third is F and the seventh is C ♭ (enharmonically ...

  7. Quartal and quintal harmony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartal_and_quintal_harmony

    The terms quartal and quintal imply a contrast, either compositional or perceptual, with traditional harmonic constructions based on thirds: listeners familiar with music of the common practice period are guided by tonalities constructed with familiar elements: the chords that make up major and minor scales, all in turn built from major and minor thirds.

  8. Second inversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_inversion

    4 chord (as in I 6 4), while a second-inversion seventh chord is a 4 3 chord. Inversions are not restricted to the same number of tones as the original chord, nor to any fixed order of tones except with regard to the interval between the root, or its octave, and the bass note, hence, great variety results.

  9. Backdoor progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backdoor_progression

    Backdoor compared with the dominant (front door) in the chromatic circle: they share two tones and are transpositionally equivalent. In jazz and jazz harmony, the chord progression from iv 7 to ♭ VII 7 to I (the tonic or "home" chord) has been nicknamed the backdoor progression [1] [2] or the backdoor ii-V, as described by jazz theorist and author Jerry Coker.
