broken chord

A block chord is a chord in which all notes sound simultaneously. A broken chord is a chord in which all notes appear in succession. An arpeggio is a common type of broken chord in which the notes of a chord are played rapidly, one after the other, from the bottom of the chord to the top.

A chord in which the notes are not played simultaneously but rather they are played successively.A chord in which the notes are not all played at once, but in some more or less consistent sequence.

Broken chords - playing each note of the chord one after the other - allows the chord to serve a more clearly melodic function in addition to its harmonic one. Broken chords are very common in piano music and across all instruments.

arpeggio Both Wikipedia and Dolmetsch just call this the 'arpeggio' or 'broken chord' symbol.

Chords are collections of 3 or more pitches sounding at the same time. They are usually used to accompany a melody. If the notes of a chord are played separately (one after another) it is called an arpeggio (or broken chord). A triad is a special type of chord made of three notes: a root, third, and fifth.

an improvised offensive play that results when the originally planned play has failed to be executed properly.

major seventh ∆ = Major scale/chord or major seventh (C∆). A (7) after a letter means to lower the 7th note of the scale, making it a Dominant 7th quality (C7). A dash ( - ) when located beside a letter means to lower the third and seventh of the scale 1/2 step, thus making it a minor tonality (Dorian minor) (C - ).

When playing a broken chord, instead of playing all the notes of a chord simultaneously together, they are broken up into each note and played consecutively one after the other. For example, if you were playing a C major, you would play C,E,G, keys one after the other separately.

The four main types of triads are named as major, minor, augmented, and diminished triads.

Broken: A chord that is played “broken” means the notes are played apart, not altogether. Solid: The opposite of broken chords, you play all the notes in a solid chord at the same time. Inversion: When we change the order of notes in a chord stack, this is called an inversion.
