Leaving 5th note out of a chord
on: July 01, 2012, 01:00:02 PM
How is the chord called when you leave the 5th note out? For Example:
C = C E G
CMaj7 = C E G B
? = C E B
I'm asking this because I'm writing the chord names on the top of Moonlight Sonata's sheet to easily be able to remember the notes when playing the song. So far I have:
C#m | C#m/B | A - D/F# |
G#7
- C#m/G# - C#sus2/G# - G#7 |
The first G#7, the bolded one, is missing the D# note. How should I call it then?

That's still a G#7. The seventh is there.
