Welcome to LivingPianos.com, I’m Robert Estrin. Today, I’m going to talk about the difference between playing Bach and Mozart. They are two great composers. You hear their music all the time. Many pianists play both composers. There are s
Triads are the building blocks of Western music. A triad is a chord consisting of three notes arranged in thirds. You have two thirds: one on the bottom and one on the top. However, the outer interval is a fifth! How can two thirds equal a fifth? Have you ever thought about this? Now, many of you will probably know instantly what the answer to this is, but I thought it was interesting to ponder how you can build a chord out of two thirds and end up with a fifth, because that doesn’t make mathematical sense.
The reason is that the bottom third and the top third share the same middle note.
So you have a root, a third, and a fifth, which consists of a third on the bottom and a third on the top. And that’s the simple mathematics of it. So in triads, a third plus a third equals a fifth! But the math is still right, so don’t worry about it. Don’t trade in your calculator or rack your brains over this any further. I hope this is clear. If any of you still have questions about this, put them in the comments, and I’ll be happy to answer! Thanks again for joining me, Robert Estrin, here at LivingPianos.com, Your Online Piano Resource.
