Dominant 7th Chord, Scale, or Arpeggio
by Jay SkylerSo an A Dominant seventh chord is written A7, and pronounced either A Seventh or A Seven. So your regular old 7th chord is really a dominant seventh. You could also have a Major Seventh, Minor Seventh, or Diminished Seventh chord, but these are completely different chords!
Note: I have noticed some articles on Wikipedia have begun calling Dominant Seventh chords Major Minor 7th
chords. Which is confusing to say the very least. I encourage all websites to avoid adopting this new nomenclature.
