    The 7th chords and the importance of articulation

    7th chords

    - A 7th chord has one more note than the triad — the 7. The sound of a 7th chord is a little more
    complex than the sound of a triad, and it’s extensively used in contemporary music.

    - A 7th chord is basically a TRIAD (so a minor and major chord) but then with one note added.

    CHORD NOTE FUNCTION

    Cmaj7 C–E–G–B 1–3–5–7
