Play

Viennese trichord as dominant

Play .

A Viennese trichord as a part of 6-Z17, an altered dominant tritone substitution (Db7alt) in the key of C, from Bill Evans's opening to "What Is This Thing Called Love?"^[3]

Play .

In music theory, a Viennese trichord (also Viennese fourth chord and tritone-fourth chord^[2]), named for the Second Viennese School, is prime form <0,1,6>. It has Forte # 3-5. As opposed to Hindemith and 037 ( Play ), "Composers such as Webern ... are partial to 016 trichords, given their 'more dissonant' inclusion of ics 1 and 6."^[4]

In jazz and popular music, the chord usually has a dominant function, being the third, seventh, and added sixth/thirteenth of a dominant chord with elided root^[3] (and fifth, see jazz chord).
