	Borrowed chord - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A borrowed chord is a chord borrowed from the parallel key.
		For instance, in major, a chord borrowed from the parallel minor's sixth degree is a "flat six chord" written ♭VI.
		Borrowing from a parallel major key is generally limited in western music to ending a minor piece on a major tonic triad, a chord which is then called a Picardy third, and use of the Major Dominant chord (in C minor: G, B, D).

	Chord (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Chords are also distinguished and notated by the scale degree of their root note or bass note.
		Borrowed chords are chords borrowed from the parallel minor or major.
		All pop-music chords are assumed to be in root position, with the root of the chord in the bass.

		An extended tertian chord, however, is often built on scale degree 5 to function as a dominant; 9th and 11th chords may be built on scale degree 2 and serve as a subdominant chord.
		Pre-Dominant Chords: are chords that precede the dominant (or sometimes the tonic six-four and then the dominant) in a cadence.
		Borrowed chords are also referred to as "mode mixture." 19th-century composers often used borrowed chords to expand harmonic color and to modulate to distantly related keys, especially the chromatically 3rd related keys.

		Chords are also said to have a function in their diatonic scale, which relates to the expected resolution of each chord within a key.
		When a chord progression resolves to a III or IV chord, it is called a Tonic Substitution, because the stable III or VI chord is being used as a substitute for the expected I chord.
		The dominant seventh chord is useful to composers because of the fact that it is a major chord with a very strong sound, that also includes a tritone between the third and seventh of the chord.

	Chord (music) - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
		Chords are named for how many notes they contain, more commonly for what type of intervals they are constructed from, and by the root note and bass note.
		Chords are also distinguished and notated by the scale degree, pitch, or note of their root and bass, although there are many different conventions for indicating the quality of the chord, and the inversion of the chord (determined by which note of the chord serves as the bass note); see Inverted Triads below).
		A minor chord, such as the triad on D, has a smaller interval from root to third called a minor third, and the chord is D minor.

	Altered chord - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In music, an altered chord, an example of alteration, is a chord with one or more diatonic notes replaced by, or altered to, a neighboring pitch in the chromatic scale.
		The Ab serves as a leading tone to G. In jazz music, an altered chord is a dominant chord that has the 5th and the 9th flatted or sharped.
		The altered chords create more tension and dissonance and in jazz harmony they are preferable to a generic dominant chord with either diatonic tensions (9 and 13) or no tensions whatsoever.

	Chromatic Chords
		This chord precedes a diatonic triad, and is its dominant, or its VIIo (the leading-tone triad, or VIIo7, the leading-tone seventh chord).
		This chord most often progresses to the dominant, or the cadential 6/4, and then V. It is theoretically possible to place an augmented sixth chord on other scale degrees, but this procedure is rare and limited to late 19th century music.
		The chord represents an chromatic modification of the the IV6 in the so-called "Phrygian" cadence.

	Music:Chords - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks
		All triads and 4-voice chords are built within the octave, or eight-note scale which encompasses the do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do of the major scale, for instance, or the scale steps 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8; eight being the octave where the pattern starts over again.
		This works for any scale, and whether the chord formed is minor or major depends on the scale: the I, IV, V chords are major, and the rest are minor, with the seventh being diminished.
		The Neapolitan chord, for example, is an ordinary major chord, but its root is the lowered supertonic of the corresponding key, so the the Neapolitan of C major is a Db major chord.

	Mode Mixture (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		When chords from the parallel major or minor are used, they are referred to as borrowed chords.
		In chords where the root of the chord is altered by an accidental, that same accidental is added before the roman numeral to indicate this alteration (i.e.: the borrowed VI chord above would be referred to as a "bVI" - read "flat six chord").
		The only frequently found borrowed chord in minor is the borrowed tonic triad, and this is commonly only found as the final chord of a work.

		Thus E is the third and Bb the seventh in a C7 chord.
		In Gb7 (a chord with a root a tritone away), E (Fb) is the seventh and Bb is the third.
		Obviously for normal chord charts it doesnt matter at all but if you write band charts, or piano arrangements out, by the way you are notating things it is an augmented sixth chord in the case of Db7 as a sub for G7.

		chord is the ii of a vi target (in a minor ii-V-i), and diatonically, that would be the vii in a major key as we've discussed thus far.
		Diminished chords and scales have always been a weak point for me. I can play the chords all over the neck, and know their dominant b9 relationship, and minor third quality, but their actual function in a particular song context and how to best solo melodically through them has always been challenging.

	Lesson 8: Mixing It Up
		So the borrowed chords for D minor would be the chords taken from the key of D Major.
		The 7th chord, or leading tone, is diminished in both major and minor keys because the 7th is usually raised to provide a smooth transition from the leading tone to the tonic.
		If a piece was ended with a tonic chord of D minor, the picardy third might be used, changing the chord to D major instead of D minor.

		In this case by borrowed iv chord you mean the iv chord from the Bb minor which is Ebmi.
		In my case I'm seeing it as a borrowed iv chord so that we get a minor plagal cadence and you are seeing it as essentially a viio7 of Bb and using Ab7 as a subsitute for that chord.

		The progression is in A major, but that F chord at the end of the first bar helps move you into the key of Bb major.
		And this final progression features what is called a "borrowed" chord, or "modal mixture." The Dm chord normally does not occur in the key of A major: it normally comes from A minor.

		Melodies that are strictly diatonic, like this one, may be harmonized with just three chords: tonic, dominant, and subdominant, the three primary chords in a key, because these three chords, aside from being the most important ones, contain all the notes of the scale.

	Ask Robin Forum
		If you use a chord within your composition that falls outside of the diatonic expectations, it is considered a "borrowed" chord.
		The reason I place the word borrowed in quotes is because, according to Dr. Robert W. Ottman: "These chords are not literally borrowed from a...key, but the term "borrowed chords" conveniently describes them." Therefore, in the key of Dmajor, a flatted mediant chord (Fmajor) would be classified as a borrowed chord.
		For example, a C# half-diminished 7th chord would use the pitches: C# up to E up to G up to B. This would be a C# half-diminished 7th chord in root position.
