Sorry, but it is _not_ just because. There are reasons. In fact, theory is to pick the best explanation possible. - 2 means omit 3, while 9 means include everything bellow except 6 is noted - 6 means omit 7, by the way - You can not raise 4 since it is a scale note, not the component of the chord as in Root, 3rd, and 5th. Thus it is a tension, and octave above the body of the chord, 11th. Otherwise use 4 to omit 3. You can't have both to form a chord that identifies the tonality. Just remember that a chord needs root and 3rd to dictate the tonal gravity, and you have to have a good reason when you don't, i.e., powerchord is to create a sound which could be either major or minor. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
