Members WattsUrizen Posted January 31, 2003 Members Share Posted January 31, 2003 G# to E is a minor 6th, not an augmented 5th. F# to C is not an augmented 4th, but a diminished 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 555 Posted January 31, 2003 Members Share Posted January 31, 2003 Get on a keyboard, start on a note, and keep adding fourths. You will play every note, and it will still sound musical. Then you can have fun naming it. Now that's a chord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frequently used in 20th century music to achieve a tonally hazy and ambiguous effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
