What a Hendrix chord?

The Hendrix chord typically refers to a Dominant 7th sharp 9 (or 7#9) chord which is simply an extension of a Dominant 7th chord (R,3,5,b7) with an added #9


What scale can you use with a F7 chord?

There are several types of seventh chords, but the most common type of chord is the Dominant 7th(or V7)chord. A Dominant 7th chord is the strongest way to approach the Tonic (I) chord.The Dominant 7th chord with a root of F is diatonic (naturally occurring) to the Bb major scale to reach the Bb major (I) chord. It is also used in the Bb minor scale to reach the Bb minor (i) chord.The F7 chord is also (less commonly) used in the key of Eb major to reach the Bb major (V) chord. The Bb7 is then used to reach the Ebmajor(I) chord.


In Beethoven Symphony N 1 in C Major the opening starts with a C dominant 7 Chord so does the piece start on the tonic or on the dominant given the name of the chord?

It starts on the tonic and just has the added B flat, making it the dominant 7th chord.


What does a 9 mean in piano jazz music?

Assuming you are referring to a chord symbol, like G9 for example, it usually refers to a dominant 7th chord with the ninth degree of the scale added as a color tone. For example, a G9 chord contains the notes G-B-D-F-A, the first, third, fifth, flatted seventh, and ninth notes of the G scale. (The flat 7th, F natural rather than F#, is what makes it a dominant 7th chord.) You also can build a ninth chord using the diatonic 7th step of the major scale, but that kind of chord is called a major 9th rather than a 9th. In G, the major 9th chord (often notated Gmaj9), would be spelled G-B-D-F#-A.


Is a 1 v 1V V 1 chord progression allowed in traditional classical chord progressions?

If that's a minor V moving to a IV chord, then no, it's not allowed. A minor V doesn't fit in anywhere in a major key, nor is V permitted to move directly to IV. To have a lowered 7th scale degree in the 2nd chord, leading to IV, try a V7/IV. It's a I chord with a minor 7th in it, working as a secondary dominant.

What are the notes of all dominant scales?

There is actually no such thing as a "dominant scale", however you can use the notes of a dominant 7th chord as a scale and that can begin on any note, the dominant 7th chord in C major is G7 and G7 uses all white keys (G, B, D and F), the structure of a dominant 7th chord is the major triad plus the flatted 7th.

How can you figure seventh chords is it the seventh note of the root of the chord?

If I understand the question correctly, the answer is yes. For example: the 7th note of the C scale is the 7th of a C chord. If it's lowered a half step, it's called a dominant chord, and if it is not flatted, it's called a major 7th. In the case of the C scale, it's the B. C, E, G, and B is a Cmaj7. C, E, G, and B-flat is a C7.


Can a Neapolitan sixth chord be used as a seventh chord and if so what is it called?

Yes. (More variants and substitutions of the N chord like n [Neapolitan minor chord], N-parallel etc. were also common in XIXth century music.) Although it does not occur in the Classical period, the Neapolitan major 7th chord (and its inversions) was widely used during the Romantic era. Two examples are Berlioz: Requiem/Kyrie (the 7th can still be regarded as a pedal point) and Hugo Wolf: Der verzweifelte Liebhaber (the chord can be considered as independent). In jazz, cadences like Dbmaj7-G7-C also occur fairly frequently. In this case, the Nmaj7 chord retains its subdominant function. The Neapolitan chord with a minor 7th is enharmonic to a leading-tone German sixth chord which loses its (secondary) subdominant function and, in C major, Db7(more precisely, its enharmonic counterpart)-C becomes a new dominant-tonic relationship (see Tritone substitution). Thereby, augmented sixth chords which are transposed up by a 4th and get resolved to the tonic are also called Neapolitan dominant chords (even if the augmented 6th is not a real 7th). Moreover, the presence of a _real_ Neapolitan dominant 7th chord (in which the 7th must be resolved downwards) involves flattening the tonic itself (the 7th will be Cb in C major/minor), greatly weakening the frames of tonality. Therefore, at least in classical music, such chords are mostly used for modulation (e.g. in the 3rd mvt. of Beethoven's Violin concert, where it occurs in its 3rd inversion), so, in this case, they also lose their original function. Therefore, most occurrences of Ndom7 should either be regarded as dominants (in cadences like Db7 C7 in jazz and popular music) and not subdominants, or its inversions should be "flipped" enharmonically if you do not want to get out of key. However, in popular music, there are also quite a few cadences used for modulation which can be interpreted by assuming that they include something like a Ndom7 (or even a n7 minor 7th chord). Example: C A79b D-7 Gb/Ab Db leads from C major to Db major. In this case, D-7 is the n7 in Db.


What does V7 mean in music theory?

It means the dominant seventh chord. In C major this would comprise of the notes G B D and the seventh F


Is the C7 chord the same as CMaj7 chord?

No it is not. The symbol C7 is referring to a C Dominant 7 chord. They are closely related though. Both chords contain the C Major triad containing the notes C-E-G. The Cmaj7 chord has what is called a Major 7 added to the triad. In the case of the C Major scale the natural 7th is B. So the CMaj7 chord is spelled C-E-G-B. The difference between Maj7 chords and Dominant 7 chords is that in Dom 7 chords the 7th that is added to the major triad is one half step lower than the major 7th. This is called the minor 7th. In the case of the C7 chord the Major 7th (B) is flatted (lowered) a half step to become the minor 7th (Bb). Thus the B becomes Bb for the C7 chord. So the CMaj7 chord is spelled C-E-G-Bb.
