    For example, G major and D major have 4 chords in common: G, Bm, D, Em. This can be easily determined by a chart similar to the one below, which compares chord qualities. The I chord in G major—a G major chord—is also the IV chord in D major, so I in G major and IV in D major are aligned on the chart.

    In music theory, a trichord (/ t r aɪ k ɔːr d /) is a group of three different pitch classes found within a larger group. [2] A trichord is a contiguous three-note set from a musical scale [3] or a twelve-tone row.

    In harmonic analysis and on lead sheets, a C major chord can be notated as C, CM, CΔ, or Cmaj. A major triad is represented by the integer notation {0, 4, 7}. A major triad can also be described by its intervals: the interval between the bottom and middle notes is a major third, and the interval between the middle and top notes is a minor third.

    The 4th mode of the Neapolitan major, also known as the Lydian Dominant ♭ 6 scale, is an excellent choice for the 9 ♯ 11 ♭ 13 chord. Said mode contains all the alterations plus the ♮ 5. A whole tone scale is often used but that mode tends to be minus the ♮ 5 that the Lydian Minor contains.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_(chord)

    The chord factor called the "fifth" (pitch name "G") is represented in voice 2 (shown in red). The chord factor that is in the bass determines the inversion of the chord. For example, if the third is in the bass it is a first inversion chord (figured bass: 6 3) while if the seventh is in the bass the chord is in third inversion (4 2). The ...

    In figured bass, a second-inversion triad is a 6 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 ...
