In music, a minor seventh chord is a seventh chord composed of a root note, a minor third, a perfect fifth, and a minor seventh (1, ♭ 3, 5, ♭ 7). In other words, one could think of it as a minor triad with a minor seventh attached to it. [2] For example, the minor seventh chord built on A, commonly written as A− 7, has pitches A-C-E-G:
Nashville notation or Nashville Number System [2] is a method of writing, or sketching out, musical ideas, using numbers in place of chord names. For example, in the key of C major, the chord D minor seventh can be written as "2− 7", "2m 7", or "ii 7". "The musicians in Nashville use the Nashville Number System almost exclusively for ...

Harmonic minor contains seven types of seventh chords: a minor major seventh chord (i m(maj7)), a half-diminished seventh chord (ii m7(−5)), an augmented major seventh chord (III aug(maj7)), a minor seventh chord (iv m7), a dominant seventh chord (V 7), a major seventh chord (VI maj7), and a diminished seventh chord (vii dim7). Natural minor ...
This chord progression instructs the performer to play, in sequence, a C major triad, an A minor chord, a D minor chord, and a G dominant seventh chord. In a jazz context, players have the freedom to add sevenths, ninths, and higher extensions to the chord. In some pop, rock and folk genres, triads are generally performed unless specified in ...
But this rule not only applies to major or minor chords, but also to seventh chords. For example, in the key in E minor, the tonic chord (E, G, B) becomes an E minor seventh chord (E, G, B, D), if the fourth note (D) is added to the triad. This applies to all other chords in the scale.
The sharpened subdominant diminished triad with minor seventh chord is represented with the Roman numeral notation ♯ iv ø 7; the root of this chord is the raised subdominant (sharpened fourth). That root also serves as the leading tone to the dominant when used in the vii ø 7 /V function described above; such a function is the diminished ...
The dominant seventh (V7) chord G7=(G,B,D,F) increases the tension with the tonic (I) chord C. Adding a minor seventh to a major triad creates a dominant seventh (denoted V7). In music theory, the "dominant seventh" described here is called a major-minor seventh, emphasizing the chord's construction rather than its usual function. [27]
