| Feb 12 at 17:40 | comment | added | piiperi Reinstate Monica | Maybe it helps if you think that apart from very short passing tones, all sounding notes are in the de-facto effectively sounding chord. Your ears don't care what's written in the music sheet, they only care about the sound they hear. | |

| Feb 10 at 14:52 | comment | added | Andy Bonner | I have actually experienced some folks singing "a third above" the melody's fifth of the chord, creating a non-chordal 6th against the root. It works best when it's a passing tone to a more triadic "third above," but as a violinist playing in the same range as the vocalists, it's been disconcerting to figure out what I play while that's going on! (Often the best answer is "nothing.") | |

| Feb 10 at 9:34 | comment | added | phoog | "if one note in the melody is a perfect fifth relative to the current chord, then she would sing an octave above the current chord": what if it's a seventh chord? What if it isn't, but she turns it into one with her harmony? | |
