[edit] Chord structure

Clarifications needed:

What is meant by "structure"? What do the components of the diagram mean?

[edit] Omnibus?

Why is this progression called "omnibus"? Hyacinth 16:52, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Nobody knows that. The standard works on the topic don't say anything, or the origin is lost in rumours. --Mardhil 01:35, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Tried to tidy up the chord notation, but would be better if somebody could add some proper analysis symbols. 88.104.83.141 (talk) 02:45, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] German +6 spellings, or tritone sub, or alt chords as substitutes for said functions.

Classical notation can give examples of an enharmonically spelled aug6. Db minor: Spell a V7 as a Gr+6 in C minor & resolve to i6 in cm. Then V42/N to V7/bVII in c minor, spelled as Gr+6 in a minor. repeat...

Other examples for modern music can substitute sub-V / alt chords...

[edit] Text says C minor but graphic shows C major

I'm not an expert so I don't know which is correct, but there is a disparity here that somebody should fix. --Kupopo (talk) 21:09, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
