Augmented triad
An augmented triad is a chord, made up of two major thirds (an augmented fifth).

Chord (music)
A chord, in music, is any harmonic set of pitches consisting of two or more (usually three or more) notes (also called "pitches") that are heard as if sounding simultaneously.

Chromatic mediant
In music, chromatic mediants are "altered mediant and submediant chords." A chromatic mediant relationship defined conservatively is a relationship between two sections and/or chords whose roots are related by a major third or minor third, and contain one common tone (thereby sharing the same quality, i.e. major or minor).

Common tone (chord)
In music, a common tone is a pitch class that is a member of, or common to (shared by) two or more chords or sets). For example, a note shared between two chords in a chord progression. Common tones are a consideration in voice leading and voicing. For example, common tones between chords may influence the inversions used, with common tones often "preserved" or "retained", as this is in agreement with voice leading principles such as smoothest and least possible movement. "The note...contained in both chords is called the common tone". A common tone is a, "tone shared by both triads". Abbé Vogler (1749–1814), Weber (1779–1839), Hauptmann (1792–1868), A. B. Marx (1795–1866), and earlier theorists have emphasized, "common-tone retention and smooth voice leading in... treatment of harmonic succession ". It may be considered a guideline or a rule. Common-tone diminished seventh chords resolve to a chord whose root is common to both chords (ii resolves to I, in C: D# F A C resolves to C E G).

Degree (music)
In music theory, scale degree refers to the position of a particular note on a scale relative to the tonic, the first and main note of the scale from which each octave is assumed to begin.

Diatonic scale
In western music theory, a diatonic scale is a heptatonic scale that includes five whole steps (whole tones) and two half steps (semitones) in each octave, in which the two half steps are separated from each other by either two or three whole steps, depending on their position in the scale.

Dominant (music)
In music, the dominant is the fifth scale degree of the diatonic scale, called "dominant" because it is next in importance to the tonic, and a dominant chord is any chord built upon that pitch, using the notes of the same diatonic scale.

Hugo Riemann
Karl Wilhelm Julius Hugo Riemann (18 July 1849 – 10 July 1919) was a German music theorist and composer.

Key (music)
In music theory, the key of a piece is the group of pitches, or scale, that forms the basis of a music composition in classical, Western art, and Western pop music.

Leading-tone
In music theory, a leading-note (also subsemitone, and called the leading-tone in the US) is a note or pitch which resolves or "leads" to a note one semitone higher or lower, being a lower and upper leading-tone, respectively.

Major chord
In music theory, a major chord is a chord that has a root note, a major third above this root, and a perfect fifth above this root note.

Major scale
The major scale (or Ionian scale) is one of the most commonly used musical scales, especially in Western music.
New!!: Mediant and Major scale · See more »
Minor scale
In music theory, the term minor scale refers to three scale formations – the natural minor scale (or Aeolian mode), the harmonic minor scale, and the melodic minor scale (ascending or descending) – rather than just one as with the major scale.

Modulation (music)
In music, modulation is most commonly the act or process of changing from one key (tonic, or tonal center) to another.

Music
Music is an art form and cultural activity whose medium is sound organized in time.

Musical note
In music, a note is the pitch and duration of a sound, and also its representation in musical notation (♪, ♩).

Parallel and counter parallel
In music, a parallel chord (relative chord, German: Parallelklang) is an auxiliary chord derived from one of the primary triads and sharing its function: subdominant parallel, dominant parallel, and tonic parallel.

Roman numeral analysis
In music, Roman numeral analysis uses Roman numerals to represent chords.

Roman numerals
The numeric system represented by Roman numerals originated in ancient Rome and remained the usual way of writing numbers throughout Europe well into the Late Middle Ages.

Schenkerian analysis
Schenkerian analysis is a method of musical analysis of tonal music based on the theories of Heinrich Schenker (1868–1935).

Solfège
In music, solfège or solfeggio, also called sol-fa, solfa, solfeo, among many names, is a music education method used to teach pitch and sight singing of Western music.

Sonata form
Sonata form (also sonata-allegro form or first movement form) is a musical structure consisting of three main sections: an exposition, a development, and a recapitulation.

Subdominant
In music, the subdominant is the technical name for the fourth tonal degree of the diatonic scale.
New!!: Mediant and Subdominant · See more »
Submediant
In music, the submediant is the sixth scale degree of the diatonic scale, the 'lower mediant', halfway between the tonic and the subdominant or 'lower dominant'.
New!!: Mediant and Submediant · See more »
Subtonic
In music, the subtonic is the scale degree below the tonic or, more specifically, the flattened seventh (VII): the lowered or minor seventh degree of the scale, a whole step below the tonic, as opposed to the leading tone, which is only a half step below the tonic.

Tonic (music)
In music, the tonic is the first scale degree of a diatonic scale (the first note of a scale) and the tonal center or final resolution tone that is commonly used in the final cadence in tonal (musical key-based) classical music, popular music and traditional music.

Tonicization
In music, tonicization is the treatment of a pitch other than the overall tonic (the "home note" of a piece) as a temporary tonic in a composition.
