From Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier, the eighth fugue from Book 1 and the eighth prelude and fugue from Book 2 are in D-sharp minor; both fugues end with a Picardy third, requiring an F in the final D-sharp major chord. The second of Lyapunov's 12 Transcendental Études ("Ronde des Fantômes") is also in D-sharp minor.
The following open-tunings use a minor third, and give a minor chord with open strings. To avoid the relatively cumbersome designation "open D minor", "open C minor", such tunings are sometimes called "cross-note tunings". The term also expresses the fact that, compared to Major chord open tunings, by fretting the lowered string at the first ...
Later in the 2000s, T-Pain used Auto-Tune extensively, further popularizing the use of the effect. [22] He cited the new jack swing producer Teddy Riley and funk artist Roger Troutman's use of the talk box as inspirations. [18] T-Pain became so associated with Auto-Tune that he had an iPhone app named after him that simulated the effect, "I Am ...
The resulting scale is, however, minor in quality, because, as the D becomes the new tonal centre, the F a minor third above the D becomes the new mediant, or third degree. Thus, when a triad is built upon the tonic, it is a minor triad. The modern Dorian mode is equivalent to the natural minor scale (or the Aeolian mode) but with
Drop D tuning. Drop D tuning is an alternative form of guitar tuning in which the lowest (sixth) string is tuned down from the usual E of standard tuning by one whole step to D. [1] So where standard tuning is E 2 A 2 D 3 G 3 B 3 E 4 (EADGBe), drop D is D 2 A 2 D 3 G 3 B 3 E 4 (DADGBe).
The whistle register is the highest phonational register, that in most singers begins above the soprano "high D" (D 6 or 1174.6 Hz) and extends to about an octave above (D 7 or 2349.3 Hz). It is created by using only the back of the vocal folds. The lower part of the whistle register may overlap the upper parts of the modal and falsetto ...
The added-sixth chord (notated "6") is rarely inverted since it shares its notes with a seventh chord a minor third down (e.g. C 6 has the same notes as an Am 7), although a counterexample is The 5th Dimension's recorded version of "Stoned Soul Picnic" (on 5). [7]
The extremes of the meantone systems encountered in historical practice are the Pythagorean tuning, where the whole tone corresponds to 9:8, i.e. (3:2) 2 / 2 , the mean of the major third (3:2) 4 / 4 , and the fifth (3:2) is not tempered; and the 1 ⁄ 3-comma meantone, where the fifth is tempered to the extent that three ...
