Artful Codger | Diminished chord notation question (32) | RE: Diminished chord notation question | 30 Aug 13 |
M.Ted: No, the natural dominant in minor mode is minor; the major dominant is a substitution, occurring historically later--a frequent one nowadays, but an alternative nonetheless which has only partially supplanted the original minor dominant. It's not unusual to find pieces using both, in the same way one finds both minor II and major II (VofV) chords in major mode. |
