Talk:Dyad (music)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Harmonic/melodic

I think that a dyad is just as likely to be harmonic as melodic. Hyacinth 09:34, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Power chord

I removed the following text because it does not seem all that relevant to the article -- a power chord is but one example of a dyad, and it is no more relevant here than any other interval.

A much more common and modern name for some dyads is the power chord, usually built of the root and the perfect fifth (in rock'n'roll guitar riffs, it may be replaced by the root's major sixth or minor seventh). The power chord is known to be pioneered by Link Wray.
