Harmony book for beginners; a text book and writing book for the first year's work, for class, private and self instruction, including scales, intervals, common chords, the dominant seventh chord and melody making . Perfect Fifth, is a Minor Triad. Triad. The Dominant, consisting of Root, Major Third and Perfect Fifth, is a Major 6. The Sub-Mediant, consisting of Root, Major Third and Perfect Fifth, is a MajorTriad. 7. The Leading Note, consisting of Root, Minor Third and Diminished Fifth is aDiminished Triad. Thus, we find, available for Harmony in the Minor, four Common or Perfect Chords(chords containing Perfect Fifths); the Tonic (a Minor Chord); the Sub-Dominant(a Minor Chord); the Dominant (a Major Chord); the Sub-Mediant (a Major Chord).Let us make a Table of all our resources, writing out these Chords in their Positionsand Inversions. Here it is: A Minor: The Tonic Chord. Root Third FifthPos. Pos. Pos. The First Inversion. The Second Inversion. CJ a rifT) >^ Ljf a % ^ a * a a z^j zyz> a a a a « —. ^- nr & & •&? # /-^.

Now, let the student write out in the remaining Minor Scales, giving correct Signa-tures, tables of Chords in Positions and Inversions, exactly like the above. Give thename of each Chord and indicate Positions and Inversions, just as in our example. E Minor: h1 J O
