In this chapter, the prime symbol should not be used to represent embellishment of the melody or changes in the harmonization or register.

In the sus4 chord (also labeled simply as “sus”), a perfect 4th replaces the 3rd of the chord. Both of these sus chords have a perfect 5th from the root to the fifth. In a later chapter, there is a section on more sophisticated sus chords like CsusC9sus and Csus♭9C7sus(♭9).

(There is an exception to this in more advanced jazz theory, which is not within the purview of this text.)

In the Romantic era, composers experimented with modulating to more remote (or perhaps adventurous) key areas, described as “foreign” to the home key.

In minor, the one place to borrow from the major mode is at the end of a piece in minor, with the use of the major II chord instead of minor ii. While the Picardy 3rd (the major third above the tonic) was most commonly encountered in the Baroque era, it has been used from then until now, though with less frequency.

Below are two syncopation figures that don’t show the beat but are acceptable because they are common and to write them out correctly involves more symbols (beamed eighths and ties) for the performer to comprehend. An example of syncopation at the eighth-note level (the division of the beat) can be found in the following example from “Eleanor Rigby.”
