Yes, very much. The reason why 6/9 chord is used by specifying to omit major 7th is because melody is root of the chord, that will produce distractive flat 9th sound. If there is no root in the strong beat of the melody, there is no need to use 6/9 chord. It is more correct to say Maj 13th. In another word, 6/9 chord notation is to tell the performer "don't dear voice major 7th!". :-) -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
