Hi Maestro,
I recently took a course from musicmatters
I am actually studying - BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY - from Queen.
I believe the key signature is Bb major ( 2 flats )
I would like to understand the chord C-Eb-F-A ( C, E-flat , F , A ) in the Bb major signature ( All B and E are flats already , but the composer puts a -b- flat before the E , in the chord C-Eb-F-A, while being in a Bb major signature )
so that means I should read/ play it
C-Ebb-F-A ( C,E double flat, F , A ) ???
if Yes, what type of Chord is C-Ebb-F-A???
if No, how should I read/ play the chord C-Eb-F-A: what bothers me is the -b- flat before the E, while being in a Bb major, having all E's - flats-
Sorry for my poor - explanation-,
Thank you ,Sir

Funny thing, I already knew what major, minor, and diminished chords were, but I didn't know what an augmented chord was. -Augmented with what?- I thought. I feel a bit silly now that I've learned how the augmented chord is like a cousin of the diminished chord. I'm glad I already know what suspended chords are. Thanks a million! :D

yes, but i find it's harder to identify chords that are inverted.
in root position, it's easy to tell the chord.
is there any trick to quickly identify inverted chords?

I wonder what makes these particular semitone intervals so special that they become a -chord-? Why not, for example, 1,4, 6 semitone interval is not a chord?
