A Flat Augmented (also written G#aug)
Abaug is made of 3 notes: Ab, C and E. Here it is in root position, with Ab at the bottom.
Inside Notley Piano: all the inversions of Abaug, fingering for both hands, a play button, and practice that helps you remember it.
| Note | Degree | Interval from Ab |
|---|---|---|
| Ab | 1 | root |
| C | 3 | major 3rd |
| E | #5 | augmented 5th |
An augmented chord raises the 5th of a major chord by a half step. It sounds dreamy and suspenseful, and it often links two chords together.
