	Seventh chord - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Because a variety of sevenths may be added to a variety of chords, there are many types of seventh chords, depending on the type of triad and the quality of the seventh.
		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.
		While the dominant seventh chord is typically built on the fifth (or dominant) degree of a major scale, the minor seventh chord is built on the second, third, or sixth degree.

		The sixth chord is a minor triad and a minor seventh.
		The fourth chord is a minor triad and a minor seventh.
		The fifth chord is a minor triad and a minor seventh.

	Diminished chord - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Generally speaking, a diminished chord is a chord which has a diminished fifth in it.
		This equivocal chord is ambiguous as to root because a diminished seventh chord built from any note of it produces that same chord.
		The diminished seventh chord comprises frequencies that are equally spaced when considered on a logarithmic axis, and thus divides the octave into four logarithmically equal portions.

	Chord Notation
		A chord symbol is a letter and/or accidental which indicates a root pitch on which a chord is to be built and other symbols which indicate the chord quality.
		In this example the guitarist strums an A minor-minor seventh chord, a D major-minor seventh chord, a G major-major seventh chord, and a C major-major seventh chord.
		The chord is spelled F#, A, C, E. Finally a B major-minor seventh chord is followed by an Em triad.

	Seventh Chords
		A seventh chord is a group of four notes which are related by thirds.
		Seventh chords are similar to triads but with a fourth note a third above the fifth.
		The second measure has a D minor-minor seventh chord with the seventh in the bass and the third measure contains a G major-minor seventh chord with the third in the bass.

	Seventh chords
		A seventh chord has at least one dissonant interval in it, and therefore is not a stable sonority; in tonal music, a seventh chord will require a resolution.
		According to this nomenclature, the seventh chords built on the I and on the IV in a major key (C-E-G-B and F-A-C-E in C major) are major-major seventh chords.
		A fully diminished seventh chord consists of all minor thirds, and is diatonic in a minor key, built on the raised seventh scale degree, as in the harmonic minor scale.

		A dominant 7th chord is indicated by writing number 7 after the root note: A7, G7, D7 and etc. It is formed by lowering the 7th note of the scale by one fret in major chord or simply moving the 8th note two frets lower.
		This chord is formed by adding the 7th note of the scale to the major chord or lowering the 8th note by one fret.
		This is a minor chord where the 8th note of the scale is lowered by two frets.

		It’s minor because there is only a step and a half (a minor interval) between the new root, D and the third tone, F. As before, it’s a seventh because C is seven scale tones away from D.
		This chord is called a minor seventh with a flatted fifth, or a ‘minor seven flat five chord for short.
		To summarize, we’ve found a major seventh chord at positions 1 and 4, minor sevenths at positions 2, 4, and 6, a dominant seventh at position 5 and a minor seven flat five chord at position 7 in the scale.

	Lesson- 'What Chord Names Mean'
		Since the result is basically a dominant-seventh chord (because of the major third in the triad and the minor seventh on top) with an augmented fifth, the chord is called an augmented-seventh chord.
		Chords like this are often used to heighten the drama of returning from V to I; for two examples from the classic rock canon, consider the last chord of the verse in both the Beatles’ "Oh Darling" and the Allman Brothers’ arrangement of T-Bone Walker’s "Stormy Monday."
		One essential use for a diminished chord is as a connection between I and ii; try Example 3, in which you connect D and Em by way of a D#dim7 chord.

		When these chords are held for four beats (or more), they are usually extended to a major 7th (for 2 beats) and a major 6th (for 2 beats).
		Minor chords (triads) are usually extended to a minor 7th chord form except when they are functioning as the tonic or I chord in a particular key.
		When a dominant 7th chord occurs for 4 beats, jazz players usually substitute a minor seventh chord (for 2 beats) and a dominant 7th or 9th (for 2 beats).

		Seventh chords consist of a note added to the top of a major or minor chord.
		For example, your basic E chord consists of E, G#, and B. If you add a minor seventh to an E (the minor seventh of E is D), you have an E7 chord.
		Major seventh chords are similar to normal seventh chords except they contain a major seventh (five whole steps and one half step) instead of a minor seventh.

		Recall that chords come in two basic parts, a letter name (C, C#, etc.) also known as a root note (tonic, 1), and a descriptive part that abbreviates the name of the chord (is a short-hand for all the intervals of each distinct note from the root note).

		In the former case, its largest interval is a minor seventh, which can again mutually narrow itself into a fifth, or asymmetrically to a minor or major sixth or even into a diminished seventh.
		In the case of the expansion the largest interval to be heard is nearly always an augmented sixth, which expands into an octave; the expansion of the minor seventh to the octave (with simultaneous falling of the lower tones) is an exceptional case.

		The m7b5 chord is often known as half diminished because only the fifth degree is diminished compared to the minor seventh chord.
		The dim7 chord is also called fully diminished because both the fifth and the flat seventh are diminished compared to the minor seventh chord.
		This means that dim7 chords whose root notes are a minor third apart contain the same notes, just in a different order (and enharmonically named).

	19 tone equal tempered guitar chords
		From a just intonation point of view, 19 is a sensible equal temperment because it gives greater purity of major and minor thirds (and their inversions the major and minor sixths) than 12 tone equal temperament, yet it does not have an overwhelmingly large number of pitches per octave.
		Similarly, minor chords are defined as a root followed by the tone 5 steps higher and then the note 6 steps up.
		All chords are "bar" chords in the sense that they are moveable up and down the fretboard and the root of the chord is circled.
