English term

major seventh flat five II

English to Spanish Art/Literary Music
Hola:
¿alguien me podría echar una mano con este término? Yo diría "séptima mayor con quinta disminuida II", aunque no sé nada de música y agradecería que me echasen una mano.
Gracias de antemano

Proposed translations (Spanish)

Sandro Tomasi Jun 27, 2022:
Maybe IV and II are relation to the tonic, i.e., the I.

If that is so, you would leave them as Roman numerals, use the female “la” article in front and place them towards the beginning, e.g., la #IV doble disminuida.

Please take all of this with about a 2 confidence level.

Thank you anyway. Maybe it is a mistake in the original...
Sandro Tomasi Jun 27, 2022:
Hmm. Never seen a II in this context before. It seems to me that if it is for a major chord it should be a #11, not a b5. Sorry I can't be of help on this one.

Do you know what IV and II are in relation with?

II disminuido con séptima mayor

Hola, Laura. Por lo que veo, es armonía de jazz.
'Flat five' indica la quinta disminuida. Se sobreentiende que la quinta del acorde es disminuida si decimos 'II disminuido'.
En español, decimos primero el grado, es decir, I, II, III, etc., que se escribe en romanos.
Y después decimos el modo (mayor, menor...) y las extensiones (séptimas, novenas, etc.).
¡Saludos!

neutral Sandro Tomasi : Según tu traducción la tercera sería menor, pero la frase en inglés indica que la tercera es mayor.
