D Augmented
Daug is made of 3 notes: D, F# and A#. Here it is in root position, with D at the bottom.
Inside Notley Piano: all the inversions of Daug, fingering for both hands, a play button, and practice that helps you remember it.
| Note | Degree | Interval from D |
|---|---|---|
| D | 1 | root |
| F# | 3 | major 3rd |
| A# | #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.
