		The major triad consists of the first, third and fifth notes of a major scale, for example in C, these would be C, E and G. Thus C, E, G is a C major triad.
		The interval from C to E is a major third (two tones), and from E to G a minor third (one and a half tones).

	Chords
		Like triads, the names of other notes of the seventh are derived from their interval above the root: the third and the fifth and the seventh.
		Seventh chords built upon augmented triads are extremely rare, as are minor triads with a major seventh and major or minor triads with diminished sevenths.
		In this method, the roman numeral is upper case for major (and augmented chords), lower case for minor, and lower case plus the small superscript "o" for diminished triads.

	Major and Minor Triads

	One Octave Major Triad
		The major triad is comprised of a root, major 3rd, and perfect 5th.
		In this way a major triad is comprised of a major 3rd interval (root to the 3rd) with a minor 3rd interval on top (3rd to the 5th).
		For a D major triad, you’d start the root note on D. Its notes would be D, F#, and A. For a G major triad, you’d make G the root note.

	Dolmetsch Online - Music Theory Online - Triads & Chords
		Triads where all the notes lie in positions closest to the other notes in the chord, are said to be in 'close' position, otherwise the triads are said to be in 'open' position.
		In the major, harmonic minor and melodic minor scales above the triad on the dominants are major (the third is a B natural).
		In the natural minor, the dominant triad is minor (the third is a B flat) and the pull to the tonic is much weaker.

		Called the Dominant Seventh because its intervallic relationships occur naturally in the seventh chord built on the dominant scale degree of a given key (e.g., G7 in the key of C major), the dominant seventh chord was the first to begin to appear regularly in Western music.
		The dominant seventh chord is useful to composers because it is a major chord with a very strong sound, that also includes a tritone between the third and seventh of the chord.
		Major seventh chords are usually constructed on the first or fourth degree of a scale, (in C or G major: C-E-G-B).

	About Chord Symbols
		A simple major triad is symbolized by the root (letter name) only; the other components expand the symbol to represent a multitude of sonorities.
		This symbol represents a 7-tone sonority -- a major triad with the 3rd in the bass, a major 7th, an implied 9th, an augmented 11th and a 13th.
		The worst offense of all is using the slashed 7 to represent a major 7th chord.

		For example, the A minor triad consists of A, C, and E. You may have noticed that the general rule for major and minor triads is that you use the first, third, and fifth degrees of the major/minor scale (major for the major triad, minor for the minor triad).
		For example, the G major triad may simply be referred to as G. Minor triads are notated in lowercase (A minor becomes a) or are uppercase followed by a lowercase m (A minor could be Am).
		Thus, a C major triad in first inversion is E, G, and C. Second Inversion is when the fifth is “moved” from the top to the bottom of the triad so that the chord starts on the fifth degree.
