Notation

How is each kind of diminished chord notated? --Jlloganiii 04:46, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Requested audio

I have added an audio example to the article. Hyacinth (talk) 20:50, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Works

The article is perfect. But I was thinking about some works that employ remarkable diminished triad chord. Beethoven's String Quartet No. 9 in C major Op. 59 No. 3 "Razumovsky" starts with such a chord. The last movement of the "Appassionata" Sonata also comes from a transition on this chord. Of course, there must be inumerable examples, but there are some importante moments with this chord. --Leonardo T. de Oliveira (talk) 16:23, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Naming

please change this back to 'diminished triad', it looks silly —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.2.172.2 (talk) 00:26, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cmb5

C minor chord with a flat fifth ie C diminished — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.196.126.86 (talk) 21:18, 30 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In other words the "b" means "flat."
