My friend and I have been experimenting with a chess/song exchange hybrid that we have had some fun with, so I set up a club to see if anyone might be interested in giving it a shot. We are also into 960. Check it out! Club name: DJ Chess Daily
Ok, theoretical question. What is the technical term for it when you play D Ionian over the key of G, or in general, when you play the fifth note of a scale, but play it in its own Ionian mode?
We've been challenged to a 360 match. Is anyone interested? This group could use some activity. I should talk, I've been on little haitus for a while except for some matches in my CoT group.
I`m fine thank you. I`ve noticed that there seems to be a lack of member interaction with the exception of seven and thirteen months ago. The latter intrigued me, rather fascinating disussion on the diminished 7th chord !! Can I throw in the word enharmonic as a preferable and practical approach to diminished chords
This chord is spelt according to it's resolution, as it can resolve to 4 different harmonies. C - Eb - Gb- Bbb would normally resolve to a Db chord. When looking at these intervals as a melodic interval in a monophonic structure, I suppose this isn't too important. The only difference would probably be that the M6 skip would resolve down by a major 2nd and the d7 would resolve down by a minor 2nd.
Oh, I found out how to look at older notes! I had to comment about this d7 versus the natural 6th, and I'm assuming that "Major sixth" was meant. A d7 is different than a M6 in it's function. For example, C to A is a M6. Assuming that they're all harmonic tones, and ignoring 9th, 11th, and 13th chords for simplicity, this will be present in IV, iv, or ii7 (or V7/V) harmonies. If we have C - B-double flat, this will only be found in a fully diminished 7th chord.
Yeah, I think it should only be written that the difference lies in the naming of the scale, such as something in A#Major (which almost anyone would call BbMajor). A# - B# - etc, although it would be so much more practical to say Bb - C - etc.
