False relations of the tritone[edit]

The French page mentions false relations of the tritone. Is this terminology used in English? Rigadoun (talk) 18:54, 7 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, it is indeed - I've added a sentence on it, and at some point will get a diagram like the one on the French page.

There is a real problem here. It asserts "chromatic alterations should occur for melodic reasons". Lacking in context, 'should'. No, there are cases where it really shouldn't occur, it could happen just out of ineptness. It isn't "a rule". This mars the article badly. Jan civil (talk) 16:30, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Amend it then! --94.193.47.185 (talk) 23:24, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mario Bros theme song[edit]

The Super Mario Bros. main theme also contains one of these false relations, and might be a song that more people reading this article would be familiar with. It's between the melody and bass line in the D section, where the melody does a downward C triad starting on E, while the bass moves from C to F# to G. The F# in the bass briefly coincides with the G in melody, before resolving to a G.

I think it would be a good idea to include this in the article, perhaps even with a short audio clip. But first we'd need to find a source. Be on the lookout for one. — trlkly 06:47, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Editing the "sources" section?[edit]

I wanted to add to the 2nd reference that this also isTuningmeister (talk) 20:14, 28 December 2017 (UTC) "(subscription required)"; maybe it wasn't years ago. But I cannot find how to do this, so perhaps the original author can make that amendment. All that appears under Edit is[reply]
