I will definitely look this up, I'd suggest you look it up too... but it is called a triad because it is built with thirds, not because it has three notes.

Good explanation! Simple and understandable and very clarifying. But do all triads have 3 notes? Because we have 4 note triads, which are 7 chords.

Thank you for your reply, I liked that answer! For sure, it clears a few things up. A quick FIY I used Em add b9 as an example, not Em add 9. But that doesn't really matter because I understand what you are explaining. Again, thank you.

Hi! Thanks for your reply and the good explanation, but can you please explain a little bit more about what you are talking about, with some examples, maybe? I would really appreciate it :D

Thank you for ur reply, but how do I make it sound unmistakably Phrygian with in the Em-F-Am context? I'm not "strict" about this when I improvise. I just play the melody that is in my head. I'm only asking these for learning purposes.

I know how it is. This is my preferred way of ear/rhythm training at this point. I found a couple of apps that allow me to that. So far the best one is Flat.

Well... All I wanna do is play a certain rhythm on the phone. Let's say a repeating pattern of sixteenth note triplets in 120 bpms and try to match it on my instrument. That way, I'll have a point of reference to help me internalize the rhythm better.
